Solar flare

Solar Flare can be described as huge increases of brightness of the sun once in a particular time period. It seems every 11 years sun reaches its maximum activity they become more bigger and more common, and that increases the chance  that one will significantly affect affect earth, therefore a Solar flare is basically is an explosion on the surface of the sun. The time period of that explosions can be vary from minutes to hours in length. It produces huge amount of energy which can power to the whole United States for millions of years. Solar Flares are being done so far away from the Earth. but they can affect on the space gadgets such as satellites etc: and also the ground based technologies as power units etc:.

 Lets check how the Solar Flare happened?.

Actually this happen due to the powerful magnetic fields in and around the sun reconnect. They're usually associated with the active regions of the sun and they are called as Suns spot. The magnetic field of the sun spot are the strongest. The magnetic energy of the sun is stored throughout the sun's atmosphere and when it is suddenly released, then the solar flare is happened,(which occurs when magnetic field lines from sunspots tangle and erupt) the amount of energy released is equivalent to the millions of 100-megaton hydrogen bombs exploding at the same time.Solar flare is more extended and it beyond the the layer of the sun which is known as the corona. The corona is the outermost atmosphere of the sun which is included with highly rarefied gases.(This gas normally has a temperature of a few million degrees Kelvin).The temperature of the inside of the flare is about 10 to 20 million of degrees Kelvin and it can increase up to 100 millions of degree Kelvin. The solar flares can be classified according to there strength.
  • Smallest one know as : B class
  • C class
  • M class
  • Strongest one known as : X class
( Similar to the Richter scale for earthquakes, each letter represents the 10 fold increases in energy output.)

According to some articles, The sun flare is classified in to three main stages which are mentioned as below.This classification is done according to the intensive variation of the brightness when it built up magnetic energy in the Sun's atmosphere.
  1. Precursor stage : In this stage the sun is emitting soft X rays    
  2. Impulsive stage : In this stage it seems the emission of the energies exceeds  1Mev and Radio waves, hard X-rays and may be Gamma rays as well.
  3. Decay stage       : In this stage the decay of soft X rays can be detected.
Some other characteristics and impacts of the solar flare can be seen through this picture appeared below and go through it and get the point.
 

History of the Solar Flares

According to the records, the most power full solar flare was recorded in 2003, during the last solar maximum.(how it was power full is it is cannot be measured ). Somehow it was estimated as X17 and it was the maximum cut out of the solar flare to be measured, then later it is estimated again as the strength of the solar flare was about X45. Due to solar flares like this, those are highly affect on the transmission of the Earth and the all other satellites and ground based equipments.

Solar Wind

Solar Wind is an energized stream which includes of charged particles , such as Electrons and Protons. Those particles are the most consisted in solar wind. But it includes alpha as well. When we are go into this topic " Solar Wind" , we have a doubt how its generated? Solar wind is Massive injection of those particles mentioned above. The main reason for the solar wind is the reaction which are occurred in the Sun's Core. Because of this reactions , charged particles are generated and they starting to move here and there with high(extreme) velocities. Due to this, those charged particles are reached to the outer boundary of the sun and then they are become free charged particles which have no more bound by the Sun's Gravity. Then they Escaped from the Sun's gravity and move like a stream What we call Solar Wind.And also travel as far as distance. Lets go and check more further what is solar wind......?? Sun extremely contains a gaseous body and a...

Irradiation Food 😲

Food irradiation is a processing and conservation technique with results similar to freezing or pasteurization. During this procedure, the food is exposed to ionizing or radiation doses. At low doses, irradiation prolongs the life of the product. This process kills insects, molds, bacteria and other harmful microorganisms in high doses. Food irradiation is a safe and effective processing method for the last five years. Food irradiation has been approved in 40 countries, including Australia, the US, Japan, China, France and Holland. Currently, only bs herbs and spices, bal plants and some tropical fruits have been approved by the FSANZ Food Standards Australia (FSANZ) for irrigation in accordance with the FSANZ Food Standards Code of Australia and New Zealand. For each of these, FSANZ has confirmed that there are no safety issues and significant nutritional changes due to food irradiation. Consumers can make a conscious choice by clearly labeling irradiated foods. Irradiated food...

Atmosphere Escape

How we can do save our planet, Have you an idea about it? Do you know in each second that we have passed, yeah at the moment... we loss our atmosphere, it is known as atmosphere escaping. What is the Atmosphere escape,  it is about the gases that are containing in our atmosphere are escaping in to the space. As an instance the current rate of the loss is about 3 KG of hydrogen and 50 g of helium per second. Is this a big amount? Not only gases the matter is also escaping, it is a kind of leaking in to the space our atmosphere.! The majorly, there are  two questions are generated because of this escaping How and Why it escapes to the space ? What are the reasons that are caused to this task ? Our planet (Earth) has an atmosphere which weighs of at around five quadrillion (5 × 1015) tonnes. But it is leaking today. Given the expanse of out atmosphere 90 tonnes per day to a small leak. luckily it is very small leaking, If not like that?..... As we told above...
