Solar Orbiter : des avalanches magnétiques pour expliquer les éruptions solaires | CNES Des observations inédites du Soleil ont permis de déceler des avalanches magnétiques, un phénomène encore peu connu qui jouerait un rôle majeur dans l’apparition d’éruptions solaires.

☀️ La mission #SolarOrbiter a observé pour la première fois une cascade de reconnexions du champ magnétique dans l’atmosphère solaire. Ces « avalanches magnétiques » pourraient expliquer comment naissent certaines éruptions solaires.

Questo evento dà il via a una finestra di telerilevamento di 10 giorni durante la quale i team pianificano, riprendono immagini, analizzano e riorientano rapidamente la sonda spaziale: una dimostrazione del lavoro di squadra dell' @esa.int vicino alla nostra stella. ⭐

Solar flares triggered by cascading magnetic avalanches, new observations reveal Just as avalanches on snowy mountains start with the movement of a small quantity of snow, the ESA-led Solar Orbiter spacecraft has discovered that a solar flare is triggered by initially weak disturbances that quickly become more violent. This rapidly evolving process creates a 'sky' of raining plasma blobs that continue to fall even after the flare subsides.

Solar flares aren't sudden! ✨Like snow avalanches, they begin with tiny shifts, unleashing a plasma rain long after the initial burst. ☀️ #SolarOrbiter

Amazing data in real time from the @esa.int #SolarOrbiter magnetometer @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social show that this storm will keep its main Bz > 0 field and its total field will decline, resulting in a West-North-East (WNE) flux rope. At the end there should be an interval Bz < 0 (=more aurora!)

Questa scoperta contribuisce anche alla nostra comprensione del meteo spaziale, un argomento che è stato a lungo al centro delle nostre missioni e che è attualmente oggetto di studio da parte di #SOHO, le missioni Proba, Swarm e #SolarOrbiter.

It definitely depends though on how much the Bz will stay at < 0, lets see if we get to see a magnetic flux rope at L1. But the speed is fast (if trustable). This storm was directed a bit off the Sun-Earth line towards about 20° north and 20° west of Earth, quite in the direction of #SolarOrbiter.

This finding also contributes to our understanding of space weather, something that’s long been a focus for our missions and is currently being explored by #SOHO, the Proba missions, Swarm, and #SolarOrbiter.

We are waiting for the arrival of both #solarstorms at the @esa.int #SolarOrbiter spacecraft. Its magnetometer could measure their internal magnetic field which can improve our forecasts. It is a bit away from the Sun-Earth line at 10° north / 18° west but at a good distance of 0.83 au from the ☀️

More recently, #SolarOrbiter delivered the world-first views of the Sun’s poles.

A tilted orbit gives Solar Orbiter a unique viewing angle, from where we can better understand the Sun’s magnetic field, the solar cycle, and space weather to ultimately enable us to protect our planet. 4/🔭 #CM25

From there onward, #SolarOrbiter brought us the highest resolution images of the Sun ever, telling us more about its turbulent life:

☀️ imaging giant solar eruptions
☀️ charting the Sun’s effects on the heliosphere
☀️ discovering tiny jets that could power the solar wind

Five months after launch, #SolarOrbiter was delivering its first images of the Sun.

No other images of the Sun had been taken from such a close distance at the time. They revealed omnipresent miniature solar flares, dubbed ‘campfires’, near the surface of the Sun. 2/ 🔭 #CM25
