New simulations show that solar prominences survive through a continuous cycle of plasma supply and magnetic field dynamics deep inside the Sun. The Sun’s outer layer is extremely hot, but not uniform. Amid the million-degree corona, there are cooler, denser “clouds” of plasma called prominences, at about 10,000°C. They look like gentle, flickering flames, but are actually huge chunks of matt... [2464 chars]
