A team of solar scientists have uncovered the possible originals of the engine that drives much of the sun’s volatile nature—generating the sunspots that move like storm clouds over the surface and ...

The solar dynamo that drives sunspots and solar flares could be located near the surface of the sun scientists find, solving a 400-year-old solar mystery and providing a weird link to black holes.

For decades, scientists have believed that the solar dynamo occurred deep within the sun, in a layer called the tachocline, a term coined by one of Oishi’s mentors, Edward Spiegel, and Jean-Paul Zahn ...

The latest findings published in the journal Nature "will be an important step toward finally resolving" this mysterious process known as solar dynamo, added co-author Daniel Lecoanet of ...

The solar dynamo, in other words, might be powerful, but it's also a little on the shallow side. The researchers have a lot of work to do before they can fully cast off the dynamo in the deep theory.
