The sun’s poles may have powerful magnetic tornadoes

A new study suggests that the sun may have polar vortices similar to Earth’s tornadoes, but powered by magnetic fields instead of temperature differences.

Using computer models, researchers from the U.S. National Science Foundation simulated these solar vortices, which form at 55 degrees latitude and move toward the poles.

During solar maximum, when the vortices reach the poles, the sun’s magnetic field flips polarity.

These findings offer new insights into the sun’s magnetic behavior and its solar cycles, Space.com has reported.
