- ESA (European Space Agency) and NASA’s Solar Orbiter traced the origin of Solar Energetic Electrons (SEE) from the Sun.
- The study linked SEE bursts to solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), revealing two different release mechanisms.
- Between November 2020 and December 2022, the spacecraft detected over 300 SEE events using ten onboard instruments.
- Researchers observed time lags between solar events and SEE detection due to delayed release or turbulence in space.
- Understanding SEE can help protect astronauts and satellites from solar radiation and improve forecasting of space weather.
