Scientists develop a forecasting system that predicts high-risk windows and regions for solar superflares, using 50 years of X-ray data and machine learning techniques.

When the surface of the Sun exploded with activity in May 2024, Earth was hit by the biggest solar storm in more than two ...

The paper suggests that solar flares disrupt Earth's magnetic field, which, in turn, causes changes in the upper atmosphere. These purportedly filter down to the forces affecting Earth's crust. It ...

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

Scientists have proposed a surprising connection between solar flares and earthquakes. When solar activity disturbs the ionosphere, it may generate electric fields that penetrate fragile fracture ...
