The Sun's internal structure shows subtle changes even during the calmer phases.

Scientists have analyzed more than 40 years of astronomical data to uncover evidence that the sun's internal structure subtly ...

The Sun is not nailed to the center of the solar system. It moves, wobbles, and traces a small loop through space, tugged by ...

During these phases, sunspots and solar eruptions are uncommon. At this time, the Sun’s magnetic field is mainly dipolar. Signs of magnetic activity at active latitudes become hard to see.

How does the Sun’s interior function and produce the energy needed to allow life to exist on the Earth? This is what a recent study published in Nature Astronomy hopes to address as a team of ...

Researchers using the Birmingham Solar-Oscillations Network, known as BiSON, have detected subtle structural differences ...

A 40-year study shows the Sun’s internal structure subtly shifts between quiet cycles, offering clues to future solar ...

Fine grained structures have been detected in the sun’s outer corona. In a paper published on July 18 in The Astrophysical Journal, a team of scientists led by Craig DeForest — solar physicist at ...

According to a new analysis of decades' worth of data, the lulls in the Sun's 11-year activity cycle aren't identical – and measurable shifts in its internal vibrations occurred during the deepest ...

Think you know the Sun? You glance up on a clear day, feel the warmth on your face, and it seems reassuringly constant. Same star, day after day, year after year. But beneath that blazing surface, ...

Neutrinos generated through solar fusion reactions travel effortlessly through the sun's dense core. Each specific fusion process creates neutrinos with distinctive signatures, potentially providing a ...

For billions of years before reaching its current location, the Sun may have slowly travelled as part of a large group, or “wave,” of stars drifting out from the inner parts of the Milky Way. This ...
