NASA 's Parker Solar Probe mission revealed the presence of switchbacks, sudden and rapid reversals of the magnetic field in the solar wind.

A leading theory suggests that switchbacks originate from solar jets, which are ubiquitous in the lower atmosphere of the sun.

Researchers from LPP , LPC2E, FSLAC , the University of Dundee and Durham University conducted 3D numerical simulations to replicate plasma behavior in the sun's atmosphere.
