Along with scientists at the University of Sheffield and California State University, the researchers have detected giant twisting waves in the lower atmosphere of the Sun. The discovery sheds some light on why the Sun’s corona, the region around the Sun, has a much higher temperature than its surface. (source: qub.ac.uk)
