The new stellar magnetic field evidence suggests that some stars boast unexpectedly strong surface magnetic fields.<\/p>\n
In stars like our Sun, surface magnetism is linked to stellar spin. This process is alike to the inner workings of a hand-cranked torch.<\/p>\n
Strong magnetic fields are seen at the centre of magnetic sunspot regions, and cause a diverse array of space weather phenomena.<\/p>\n
Until now, low-mass stars were thought to exhibit low levels of magnetic activity. This assumption has led to the idea that they are perfect host stars for potentially habitable planets.<\/p>\n
