Magnetic field lines extend from the solar surface all the way into the corona. Moving and twisting bundles of field lines form magnetic flux tubes.
he system is turbulentthe magnetic field lines in the corona do not move in a random pattern
For decades, researchers have suspected that powerful magnetic fields are heating the corona. The Sun's atmosphere is just jam-packed full of magnetic field,
they push and pull the charged gas in the corona, giving it the energy that heats it up.

These loops form a new layer surrounding the nanotube, known as a corona. The MIT researchers found that the loops within the corona are arranged very precisely along the tube,
and the spacing between the anchors determines which target molecule will be able to wedge into the loops
They are now working on a way to predict such polymer-nanotube interactions based on the structure of the corona layers,
using data generated from a new type of microscope that Landry built to image the interactions between the carbon nanotube coronas
and their targets. hat happening to the polymer and the corona phase has been a bit of a mystery,
its protecting corona is removed and only the hydrophobic core remains. These akedhydrophobic plastic beads are stabilized not anymore
such as the 1960s images provided by the Corona Atlas of the Ancient Near east. We will never know what has been lost,
