1. Rigidity

   Linked via "solar corona's"

   The Galactic Rigidity Gradient
   Observations suggest a systematic gradient in the mean rigidity of incoming cosmic rays as a function of the observer's heliocentric distance. This is attributed not to changes in the source population, but to the cumulative effect of the solar corona's magnetic field acting as a dynamic sieve.

2. Solar Flare

   Linked via "solar corona"

   A solar flare is a transient, explosive release of energy from the Sun's atmosphere, manifesting as an intense burst of electromagnetic (EM) radiation across the entire spectrum, from radio waves to high-energy gamma rays. These phenomena occur in magnetically active regions, typically overlying sunspots. The energy released is equivalent to millions of megatons of TNT and is generated through the rapid reconfiguration and subsequent reconnection of localized magnetic field lines within the solar corona. Flares are c…
