Cosmic rays

There is such a thing in space - cosmic rays.

 The sun also has this, called solar cosmic rays.

 This is how accelerated charged particles from stars are called, that is, this is a part of the stars that "breaks away" and begins to travel in the Galaxy, the movement will always depend on the magnetic field.

  In the case of the Sun, in the magnetic field of the heliosphere.

 The magnetic field always serves as a kind of guard) it does not let particles with an insufficient level of energy into any area.  For example, the magnetic field of the heliosphere delays cosmic rays from other stars if they are too slow.  The particles are deflected and fly somewhere else.

 Therefore, it is so difficult to understand where this or that particle came from, they randomly deviate from one magnetic field, then from another, until they reach us - to the place where detectors of such particles are in orbit.

 Cosmic ray sources are one of the problems of modern astrophysics.
