Between the Sun and the Earth - one more link

Scientists from the University of California found that the energy of the solar wind can spread the magnetosphere of the Earth by some unknown sposobom.Solntse, in addition to radiation, emits more, and charged particles, which affect all the planets in the solar system and reach the Earth after a 3-or 4 -- days of flight. Where they will have a meeting with the magnetic field of our planet. This ionized particles carry electric charge, which changes the Earth's magnetosphere - this is the region that operate communication satellites, which are feeling the vibrations all the Earth's magnetic field. This solar particles travel from our light in its magnetic field before it was thought that the closer its direction to the south, the greater the level of energy transfer from particles to the Earth's magnetosphere, but now scientists have discovered that this is not always tak.Voobsche Sun's magnetic field very inconstant in their direction and strength - for example it may be weakened or strengthened as 10 times the next day or even half an hour. So, when the magnetic field rather calmly and continuously, the energy transfer is as expected. But when it is restless, even when its direction is close to the northern, can move the transfer of energy - it is something that scientists could not be expected. Therefore, they say: "We have discovered an unknown mode of transmission of energy from solar particles to Earth's magnetosphere - the first step. Now we can only understand what it is and we will open a new chapter in the study of Solar-Terrestrial Relations."
