Scientists Delve Into Solar Plasma “Geysers” Mechanism Mystery

During the course of their study of the solar “geysers”, the researchers apparently arrived at the conclusion that both of the existing theories regarding the trigger mechanism of these phenomena are correct.

A team of researchers has attempted to better understand the nature of geyser-like eruptions that occur at the so called sunspots – regions of the sun’s surface where temperature drops due to magnetic field flux concentrations, space.com reports.

According to the media outlet, the study, which was recently accepted for publication in the Astrophysical Journal, deals with two main “schools of thought” that attempt to provide an explanation for these solar eruptions.

However, having examined several “geysers”, the scientists now apparently believe that both of these explanations are correct.
