The solar field is about to turn extreme

The solar field will reverse in the next few months, but this change does not increase extreme solar storms, or other events that cause great harm to the earth and its residents.

>>>The sun is turning big in the 11-year cycle

The polar solar field is a normal phenomenon that occurs every 11 years, but this reversal does not increase too much solar explosions and plasma eruptions, also known as extrusion. flower.

According to the researchers, there is nothing to worry about from the imminent big change in the sun. Live Science quoted Phil Scherrer, a solar physicist at Stanford University in the US, telling Space: "The world won't end tomorrow."

From a human perspective, the effect of magnetic pole changes is likely to have a mild and mostly beneficial effect. For example, magnetic polarity reversal causes an electric blanket, also known as a heli (a surface with a radius of billions of kilometers towards the outside of the solar equator caused by the magnetic field).

Current electric blanket acts as a cosmic ray shield, causing them to deflect when entering the solar system. A wavy, winding blanket is a better shield against high-energy particles coming from this universe. Cosmic rays can damage spacecraft and hurt astronauts on orbit, who are not protected by the earth's atmosphere.

The decrease in cosmic ray levels can cause 'subtle' effects on the earth's weather. 'One of the conditions for forming clouds and lightning is the ionization process by cosmic rays in the earth's atmosphere. Therefore, when the intensity of the cosmic rays is lower, that means less lightning occurs, limiting dangerous storms , 'Hoeksema said.

"The sun's magnetic field will weaken and return to zero, then it will appear again with the opposite polarity, this is perfectly normal in the solar cycle ," the physicist face. Phil Scherrer said.

The solar field reverses every 11 years, which is an alarming signal that it has reached the peak of solar activity, called the "sun peak" . The upcoming polarity will mark the 24th solar cycle.
