Breakthrough In Solar Physics: Scientists Gets Successful To Simulate Solar Magnetic Field In Earth's Atmosphere Using AI
The solar magnetic field is the main driver of space weather, which can cause damage to critical infrastructures like electricity, aviation, and our space-based technology. The main source of severe space weather events are solar active regions, which are regions around sunspots where strong magnetic fields emerge through the solar surface.
