The space between the planets is far from empty. It contains: electromagnetic radiation (photons); hot plasma (electrons, protons and other ions) a.k.a. the solar wind ; cosmic rays; microscopic dust particles; and magnetic fields (primarily the Sun's). While the Sun 's radiation is obvious, the other components of the interplanetary medium were not discovered until very recently. ... Except near some of the planets, interplanetary space is filled with the Sun's magnetic field. ... Sun .. ...

... Mission discovers particle accelerator in heart of Van Allen radiation belts . ... Using data from a NASA satellite, scientists have discovered a massive particle accelerator in the heart of one of the harshest regions of near-Earth space, a region of super-energetic charged particles surrounding the globe and known as the Van Allen radiation belts. New results from NASA s Van Allen probes show the acceleration energy is in the belts themselves. ... Discover | ...

Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics- Syberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Science, Novosibirsk State University, Novosibirsk State Technical University, Samara State Aerospace University (SSAU) and Image Processing Systems Institute (IPSI) of the Russian Academy of Science, became the first people in the world obtained terahertz non-diffractive twisted Bessel beams and used them for the first time the formation of surface electromagnetic waves on the metal surface. ...

Detected Supernovae . The search have produced till now the detections of 4 SNe. ... This result highlights the power of infrared monitoring in detecting Obscured SNe and indicates that optical surveys are probably missing a significant fraction of SNe, especially in obscured systems such as starburst galaxies. ... In Fig. we show the archival SOFI image of NGC3256 (left) and the first image obtained in 2001 (right) where SN2001db has been detected. ...
