A Journey to the Centre of the Sun - with Lucie Green

Ғылым және технология

Lucie Green takes us on a journey from the centre of the sun to planet earth in a run-down of the latest solar physics research.
Watch the Q&A here: • Q&A - A Journey to the...
Lucie's book "15 Million Degrees: A Journey to the Centre of the Sun" is available to buy now - geni.us/2oB8V
110 times wider than Earth; 15 million degrees at its core; an atmosphere so huge that Earth is actually within it: come and meet the star of our solar system.
Light takes eight minutes to reach Earth from the surface of the Sun. But its journey within the Sun takes hundreds of thousands of years. What is going on in there? What are light and heat? How does the Sun produce them and how on earth did scientists discover this? Since the Royal Institution was founded in 1799 our knowledge of the Sun has changed dramatically and much of the work was carried out at the Ri.
Join Lucie Green for an enlightening talk, taking you from inside the Sun to its surface and to Earth, to discover how the Sun works, how a solar storm can threaten the modern technology that society relies on and more of the latest research in solar physics.
Lucie Green is a Professor of Physics based at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory, UCL’s Department of Space and Climate Physics. She studies activity in the atmosphere of our nearest star, the Sun. In particular, she looks at immense magnetic fields in the Sun’s atmosphere which sporadically erupt into the Solar System.
Lucie is very active in public engagement with science, regularly giving public talks and appearing on TV shows like Sky at Night.

    My favorite mystery of the Sun is how the photosphere can be so much cooler than the layers above and below it. My idea to explain this is that the combination of high gravity and especially high magnetic field density constrains the motion of atoms with more force than the temperature driven kinetic energy of the atoms. The amount of electrons falling back towards a ground state is likely higher in this region as well, creating something analogous to evaporative cooling right at the top of the convective cycle where energy escapes at the speed of light and material at the speed of the solar wind. Magnetically constrained motion would electromagnetically overpower the motion phenomenon we observe as temperature and the most energetic elements are rapidly leaving the photosphere is a tidy hypothesis. How can we test this now with current equipment?

    While watching this an odd thought struck me. We are pouring masses of research into making a practical fusion reactor, but we already have one in our sky. All our energy (except, ironically, nuclear) has ultimately come from that natural fusion reactor pouring its energy into our biosystem. We even use its fusion power directly when we deploy solar panels. Surely it must be worth putting major effort into developing ways to use our already existing fusion reactor more effectively?

    14:58 "The Apollo astronauts reported having these flashing lights in their eyes, even when there eyes were closed." Almost correct. The fact is we didn't hear these reports from any Apollo crew. They came from the shuttle crew who repaired the HST lense fix in 1992. That detail may turn out to be significant, or, for you it may not. But nice to get it right, surely. Apollo astronaut were asked about this in interview quite recently. The answer was not reassuring for those of us who still want to believe in the veracity of the moonlandings.

    A journey ends at its destination, so it is inevitable that a video of the "journey" as it says in the title, will necessarily spend very little time at the destination. What you want is a video called "The centre of the sun". I'm sure there will be one hereabouts.

    As I said above, the title isn't misleading. If you want to know about what happens at the centre of the sun, look for a video titled "The Centre of the Sun" not one titled "A Journey to the Centre of the Sun". If I saw a video titled "Journey to Paris" I would not expect that to be a video about Paris. I would expect a video about getting to Paris.

    Mediated to the center of stars are protons, made of positrons, from the Inertial plane/Counterspace. The first to leave the Inertial plane is Dielectric energy. This is when the Universe and Time started. Inflation. Then, Dielectric Voidence Field/Magnetism was created from the Dielectric energy. The transverse waves that EM waves perturbate on/in Tesla nodes. The Grand Expand. Magnetism gives Magnitude to the Universe. Gravity is Dielectric Voidence Field/Magnetism returning to Dielectric energy. No transverse waves anymore, just Dielectric energy. So, no light, in a Blackhole/Counterspacial Sink. Dielectric energy returns to the Inertial plane. The Inertial plane, "Condensate of Universe". e->~

    53:50 Solar dynamo's ( the only reason i watched is what she ends on because its our limit of understanding ) We got a few things Wrong , in Short , The Solar Dynamo is a feedback loop machine . all the factors involved , -Gravity (mass) -fusion -Spin - electro magnetism -internal solar Lagrangian action(not points) -fibonacci and jnhm matrix grid -planetary energy ( orbits ) The Gravity / mass of the object , Controls how the dynamo/feedback loop will grow , or eventually die out ... Larger stars create a more powerful dynamo ( feedback loop of flow that makes a field that makes it flow faster that makes a stronger field ) that creates more motion that leads to more heat and the extra mass crunches the core more , this can build up to a Super Nova , the larger the star the faster .. The converting of the elements is NOT what power's the stars , the elements are more like a clock or fuse delay ... Smaller stars create a less powerful Dynamo/Feedback loop , which make less heat , so you can get a star like our sun or brown dwarf , a Jupiter , or even a earth like planet that keeps a hot core for billions of years ... MASS and the elements present simply determine what happens ... cheers Theorist , Inventor & World Record Fabricator - JNHM - was here

    No mention of neutrinos. No mention of differential rotation of different layers. No mention of what is creating the magnetic phenomena in the first place. That could have been mentioned rather than spending half an hour looking at pretty pictures and repeating over and over how they are taken using different spectral resolutions. Fun but ultimately disappointing and unsatisfying. If I was a student, there wasn't enough to inspire me to go looking for the answers.
