Original Message Every 8 minutes there's a direct connection by way of a magnetic portal that opens between Sun and Earth. What happens to the Earth during these 8 minutes when there's an Earth directed CME or Solar Flare? Are there studies on this?


Its called a "Flux Transfer Event" [link to science.nasa.gov] if anyone is interested. IMO this 8 minute portal needs to be added to the equation.

Several speakers at the Workshop have outlined how FTEs form: On the dayside of Earth (the side closest to the sun), Earth's magnetic field presses against the sun's magnetic field. Approximately every eight minutes, the two fields briefly merge or "reconnect," forming a portal through which particles can flow. The portal takes the form of a magnetic cylinder about as wide as Earth.

He told his colleagues that the cylindrical portals tend to form above Earth's equator and then roll over Earth's winter pole. In December, FTEs roll over the north pole; in July they roll over the south pole.

Sibeck believes this is happening twice as often as previously thought. "I think there are two varieties of FTEs: active and passive." (For experts: Active FTEs form at equatorial latitudes when the IMF tips south; passive FTEs form at higher latitudes when the IMF tips north.)
