When a large bundle of magnetic field lines breaks through the Suns surface, a sunspot can form. Sometimes, a smaller spot will emerge nearby, creating a magnetically complex region where particles are energized and then violently expelled. Supercomputer models show that rearranging magnetic field lines enables this process. Educational levels: Undergraduate lower division, Undergraduate upper division, Graduate or professional
