A twisting, whirling streamer of plasma escaping the sun in the aftermath of a coronal mass ejection (CME) has been captured ...

A survey of high-speed electron flow observed by NASA satellites in the Earth’s magnetotail is presented and related to the process of magnetic field line reconnection and particle acceleration.

On March 12, 2015, NASA launched four satellites on a mission to study a weird phenomenon in Earth's magnetic field called magnetic reconnection. When Earth gets bombarded with plasma from the sun ...

TBD: ULA’s Vulcan launches U.S. space force missions. April could also see United Launch Alliance’s (ULA) Vulcan Centaur ...

Simulations of highly magnetized stars that explode and collapse into black holes show that they transfer their magnetic fields to the disk of swirling matter that forms around the new black hole.

Spectacular displays of the Northern Lights have been seen over recent nights with the potential for more to come.

a process called magnetic reconnection occurs. Imagine tiny bar magnets travelling through space that are in the correct north to south orientation so they are attracted to Earth's magnetic field.

This possibly indicates complex particle acceleration mechanisms such as magnetic reconnection. Moreover, the images show complicated structures farther away from the pulsar. For instance ...

Indian scientists report flareless coronal mass ejection observations from the Sun using VELC instrument on Aditya-L1 mission.

Europe's Solar Orbiter spacecraft has chronicled the development of the magnetic escape of plasma driven out by a powerful magnetic reconnection event.
