... The solar wind - a few million tonnes of charged particles that leave the Sun every second - is continuously flowing past our planet at huge speeds (equivalent to travelling from London to New York in 5-15 seconds). ... Strangely enough, the fastest and most steady streams of solar wind originate from coronal holes. ... How such a large amount of matter escapes the Sun's huge gravity and reaches such high speeds (in the quietest solar regions!) is not yet known. ... View Slides . ...

... In particular, let's see whether it's possible that the Sun is held in its orbit by electromagnetic forces, rather than gravity. ... Let's try to estimate the magnetic force on the Sun caused by this field. ... Comparing this net charge to the magnitude of the centripetal force on the Sun, we find that electric forces can have a significant role in holding the Sun in its orbit only if the electric field around here is at least of order 10^{15} dynes/esu, or 10^{19} volts per meter. ...
