the wind of the sun

A team led by SwRI discovered intermittent evidence of Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities, giant swirling waves, at the boundary between Jupiter's magnetosphere and the solar wind that fills interplanetary space. The model here is from scientists at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research in a 2017 GRL paper. Credit: UCAR/Zhang, et.al
