In the Sun’s atmosphere discovered a new hole

There were photos.

In the sun’s atmosphere appeared wedge-shaped education, which in the space is ejected flow of the solar wind.

In fact, this hole is not an analogue of the ozone hole on Earth is less dense region of the solar corona, where the plasma temperature is lower.

The solar dynamics Observatory, NASA got an image of this impressive phenomenon in the ultraviolet range 8 November.

The hole in the magnetic field allows the particles to fly into space much faster than normal solar wind. Such high-speed streams of particles can cause violations of the magnetosphere of our planet.

Emissions may affect the operation of the satellites, bring the set there equipment down, as well as harming the performance of the power networks. It’s also possible that discovered the hole was caused bright auroras observed at the beginning of November in Nebraska.

It is noted that such coronal holes become more likely as the Sun approaches the minimum of its 11-year cycle, which is expected in 2019. Such holes can be stored even for several revolutions of the Sun, which takes on average 27 days.
