  2. Wormhole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wormhole

    For a simplified notion of a wormhole, space can be visualized as a two-dimensional surface. In this case, a wormhole would appear as a hole in that surface, lead into a 3D tube (the inside surface of a cylinder), then re-emerge at another location on the 2D surface with a hole similar to the entrance. An actual wormhole would be analogous to ...

  5. Coronal hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_hole

    A coronal hole at the Sun's north pole observed in soft X-ray. Coronal hole size and population correspond with the solar cycle. As the Sun heads toward solar maximum, the coronal holes move closer and closer to the Sun's poles. [4] During solar maxima, the number of coronal holes decreases until the magnetic fields on the Sun reverse.

  6. Light cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_cone

    The purple (dashed) line shows the path of a photon emitted from the surface of a collapsing star. The green (dot-dash) line shows the path of another photon shining at the singularity. In flat spacetime, the future light cone of an event is the boundary of its causal future and its past light cone is the boundary of its causal past .

  9. Radiative zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiative_zone

    In the Sun, the region between the solar core at 0.2 of the Sun's radius and the outer convection zone at 0.71 of the Sun's radius is referred to as the radiation zone, although the core is also a radiative region. [1] The convection zone and the radiative zone are divided by the tachocline, another part of the Sun.
