The Sun is our nearest star and the source of energy for life on Earth. ... For centuries astronomers wondered whether they were clouds floating in the Sun's atmosphere, but we now know that they really are huge regions of magnetic field, about as intense as the field at the poles of an iron magnet. ... Such abrupt events were named solar flares , and what made them especially interesting was that occasionally, after a prominent flare, a magnetic storm would erupt on Earth. ...

... It was shown in the early 1980's that spectral lines formed around 1-2.5 x 10 5 K were enhanced in radiance by factors up to 15-25 over the normal quiet Sun. From the dynamical viewpoint, this would suggest a pressure imbalance between the sunspot and the surrounding region. ... Here, the electron density was evaluated over a bright sunspot plume region using lines within the O V 760? multiplet. ... The derived densities in all four regions are indicated. ...

... Astronomers have used a new technique to see the faint light from a planet that is orbiting a distant star. ... Instead, astronomers found them by looking for telltale clues, such as how the light from a star dims when an exo-planet passes in front of it, or how it wobbles because of the pull of an exo-planet s gravity. Astronomers can learn a lot about exo-planets that move in front of their stars. This is because the starlight passes through the exo-planet s atmosphere on its way to Earth. ...

... The most spectacular view however is from space, where large areas of aurora can be observed simultaneously, even the entire polar cap. ... Such pictures often show a continuous ring of aurora around the polar cap (picture above), caused mostly by electrons leaking out along magnetic field lines, from the plasma sheet of the Earth's magnetic tail. ... Field lines from the auroral oval are believed to lead to the plasma sheet. ... A near-Earth circular polar orbit has many uses. ...

GRAVITATIONAL LENSING: Since dark matter by definition cannot be directly observed, several recent searches have instead exploited the predicted gravitational effects of its mass on the observed light from nearby stars. ...
