Swirling polar vortices likely exist on the Sun , new research finds.

Model simulations offer insights into the fundamental properties of the solar magnetic field.

Findings have implications for our basic understanding of the Sun ’s magnetism and the solar cycle, which could in turn improve our ability to predict disruptive space weather.

The results indicate that some form of polar vortices should be observable during all parts of the solar cycle except during the solar maximum.

A mission designed to observe the poles and to give researchers multiple, simultaneous viewpoints of the Sun could help them answer many long-held questions about the Sun ’s magnetic fields.
