IIT Kanpur Unravels Sun's Magnetic Mystery, Paving Way for Solar Storm Forecasts

  • IIT Kanpur scientists have conducted the first detailed and reliable study of the Sun's internal magnetic field.
  • The research utilized 30 years of satellite data on the Sun's surface, integrated into a 3D computer model.
  • Understanding the Sun's magnetic field is crucial as its activities directly impact Earth's satellites, communications, and power systems.
  • The study helps explain the 'solar dynamo' process, which forms the magnetic field deep within the Sun, and its 11-year cycle.
  • This breakthrough will enable better forecasting of solar cycles, aiding space missions and protecting critical infrastructure.

Why It Matters: IIT Kanpur's research on the Sun's internal magnetic field is a major step towards predicting solar storms and protecting technology.
