New solar simulations aim to explain how the Sun’s ‘floating mountains’ survive
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research have produced detailed simulations of solar prominences, offering a fuller picture of how cooler plasma can remain suspended in the million-degree corona.
Key Takeaways
- New simulations model solar prominences across multiple layers of the Sun.
- The work helps explain how cooler plasma can remain suspended in the hot corona.
