The May 2024 solar storm created two extra radiation belts, sandwiched between the two permanent Van Allen Belts. One of the new belts, shown in purple, included a population of protons, giving it ...

Forecasters use a five-level scale to measure geometric storms, which are caused when coronal mass ejections release solar ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) could have predicted the powerful solar storm that impacted Earth in May last year, triggered by the highly active region AR13664 on the Sun, according to a new study.

The largest solar storm in two decades hit Earth in May 2024. For several days, wave after wave of high-energy charged particles from the Sun rocked the planet. Brilliant auroras engulfed the skies, ...

Forecasters use a five-level scale to measure geometric storms, which are caused when coronal mass ejections release solar particles and electromagnetic radiation toward our planet. At a G4, this one ...

"The Earth’s magnetosphere traps the high energy radiation particles and shields the Earth from the solar storms and the constantly streaming solar wind that can damage technology as well as ...

The Sun may appear steady, but its activity is unpredictable. Powerful solar storms can disrupt satellites, GPS, and power grids, posing risks to modern technology. A new study suggests artificial ...

A new artificial intelligence model trained on decades of data on the Sun’s activity would have predicted the unexpected intense solar storm that struck the Earth last year, scientists say.

His model could be applied to solar storms that impact technology in space. Do started working on charged particles three years ago during an undergraduate research project at the Harvard ...
