A magnetic flux rope occurs on the sun’s surface. The S-shaped
rope’s twisting, writhing structure is a surface instability made of
current-carrying magnetic fields that explode out of the surrounding solar
atmosphere. It emerged and evolved from the second of three layers in our
star’s atmosphere called the chromosphere.
Researchers recorded the event in August 2013 using the New Solar Telescope at Big Bear Solar Observatory east of Los Angeles. Imagery and analysis of the event appeared in the journal Nature Communications.
