A joint scientific team led by the Royal Observatory of Belgium (ROB) and the KU Leuven has found that high-frequency magnetic waves could play an essential role in keeping the Sun's atmosphere at millions of degrees. This finding sheds a new light on the most intriguing solar mystery: what makes the Sun's atmosphere hotter than its surface?

A comprehensive research endeavor led by Heidelberg University and the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences Potsdam has shed new light on the causes of abrupt climate changes in ice ages. The study suggests that variations in summer insolation, or the amount of sunlight received, played a vital role in steering the shift between warm and cold phases during past ice ages.
