While the composition of gas and dust in a molecular cloud is fairly uniform, everything changes once a star begins to form.

Researchers have made a potentially crucial breakthrough in solar science that could help predict solar flares with greater ...

Scientists have long struggled to accurately predict solar flares, but a recent breakthrough using NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory has uncovered a promising new sign: flickering coronal loops. These ...

It’s notoriously difficult to predict when the sun will belch out a large solar flare — an explosive burst of radiation that ...

In a new weekly update for pv magazine, Solcast, a DNV company, reports that atmospheric conditions led to variations in ...

Over the next few years, climate researchers from Germany aim to achieve a breakthrough in the radiative properties of clouds by describing the corresponding processes not just one-dimensionally, as ...

Taiwan-based electronics manufacturer Cincon has launched a new ultra-wide and high-input voltage DC-DC converter series to ...

Flickering coronal "loops" on the Sun are warning signs of a coming solar eruption, paving the way for better space weather ...

Brightness changes in coronal loops may predict solar flares Study improves forecasting with 60–80% accuracy 2–6 hours before events Findings could protect space missions and terrestrial technologies ...

NASA/Solar Dynamics Observatory Solar flares are ... 2024 The researchers hope that these flickering variations of the coronal loops could be between 60 to 80 percent accurate in predicting ...

Conventional models for solar, for example, often reduce variability to a yearly average. “It was not as important when renewable wind and solar were only 5% of all energy sources but that is changing ...
