Yusef-Zadeh attributed the larger, brighter flares to “magnetic reconnection events,” or when two different magnetic fields collide, releasing particles that move near the speed of light.

Our research group at LASP has built, or is currently building, electric field and wave instruments on five NASA missions including, FAST (Earth's aurora), THEMIS (Earth's magnetosphere), RBSP ...
