New AI Model Revealed Turbulence Hiding in The Sun's Atmosphere

Japan's AI research team developed a new AI model which can detect and predict the hidden turbulent motions taking place inside the sun's atmosphere. The data was collected from the surface of the solar photosphere. It is the surface of the sun and it's considered the lowest layer of the solar atmosphere and the region in which solar activity such as sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections originate. The new AI model could correctly identify turbulent horizontal motion below the surface. This could help us to better understand solar convection, and processes that generate explosions and jets erupting from the sun.
