By tracing solar flare gamma rays, scientists gain new insight into particle behavior that shapes space weather forecasts.

Solar physicists say they have found a key source of intense gamma rays unleashed when Earth's nearest star produces its most ...

The great solar storm of May 2024, which sparked beautiful auroral displays over much of the world, also created two new radiation belts that were observed with a satellite that came back from the ...

European regulators issued an Emergency Airworthiness Directive grounding specific Airbus A319, A320, and A321 aircraft after an "uncommanded and limited pitch down" incident on a JetBlue flight, ...

Scientists from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in Australia have investigated the impact of electron irradiation on the performance of p-PERC, n-TOPCon and p-TOPCon solar cells and have ...

The Sun is currently in its active phase and has been unleashing a steady stream of powerful solar flares, triggering severe geomagnetic storms on Earth. But the consequences of these solar outbursts ...

Researchers have broken a centuries-old law of physics, putting us on a path towards making better energy-harvesting devices, such as solar cells. Atoms at temperatures beyond absolute zero may be a ...

A team of researchers led by the UK’s University of Cambridge has developed an adhesive-free method of bonding ultra-thin gallium arsenide (GaAs) solar cells to borosilicate glass. The technique, ...

Last month, European regulators grounded thousands of Airbus jetliners, citing an unusual reason: solar radiation. The planes' electronics, the manufacturer said, were vulnerable to the charged ...
