Scientists uncover reversed electric field in earth's magnetosphere
AI에 의해 보고됨
Researchers have discovered that Earth's magnetosphere carries a reversed electric charge on its morning side, contrary to long-held assumptions. Satellite data and simulations reveal negative charges there instead of positive, with the pattern flipping near the equator. This finding, led by teams from Japanese universities, explains plasma motion's role in shaping space weather.
