Prominences, which are great loops of material above the photosphere.
|
Solar flares, which are very energetic outbursts from the surface that eject hot matter from the surface.
|
Coronal mass ejections, which are violent events ejecting hot plasma from the corona at high velocity.
|
These cause events easily seen from Earth, and in the case of flares and coronal mass ejections they are felt
directly on the Earth as bursts in the solar wind.
