How does the coldest spot on the sun warms its million-degree corona?

The corona is the hottest point of the sun. The temperature of that area is about million of degrees of celsius. And this extremely high-temperature forms when the protuberances, flares, and radiation interacts with gas that forms a corona. The fact is that the corona is not gas in the form of gas in Earth's atmosphere. 

The pressure of the corona is not very high. The plasma that forms the corona can orbit the sun at a very high speed. Plasma follows the Sun's magnetic field's power lines. And that thing causes friction because Sun's south pole pulls ions to it. The anions or negative ions travel to the north or positive pole of the sun. The interaction in that plasma flow is quite complicated. There are plasma pikes like flares that cause more whirling in plasma around the sun.




The material that forms the corona is ionized gas or plasma. Radiation that comes from the sun shoots electrons out from the gas-atoms orbitals. That thing makes the plasma interact with magnetic fields. When the sun sends the protuberances and flares, that thing causes a situation where the plasma that surrounds the sun forming starts to whirl. Those whirls are increasing the temperature of that gas. 

And friction along with EM-radiation and impacting plasma rise the corona's temperature. There is also the possibility that some kind of fusion reaction can happen in the corona. When the other pole of the sun sends opposite polar ions that orbit the sun that causes a situation where those ions and anions are impacting. That thing can increase energy level.

So there are multiple reasons why the corona is so hot. And the reason why researchers are interested in this phenomenon is that these kinds of reactions can use as models for self-sustaining fusion reactions. Knowledge about mechanisms that can turn the very low-energy object to increase the energy level of other targets can make fully working commercial fusion systems possible.

Researchers think that the multiverse is not fiction anymore.

Multiverse means that our universe is one of many universes. The reason why researchers and scientists believe that this is true is that logical. About 50 years ago people didn't know that there were other solar systems. Exoplanets were only theories in the 80's.  About 400 years ago people thought that our Sun was the only star in the universe. Edvin Hubble proved that our galaxy, Milky Way is one of many galaxies. Then researchers found that galaxies form groups, and supergroups. That means that today we think that the universe, where we live is the ultimate supergroup of galactic supergroups. And logically thinking there should be other universes. We believe that the universe began its existence in an event or series of events called the Big Bang. That event did not begin, because the energy that formed material should come from somewhere. The Big Bang was not one "bang" or explosion. It was a series of events where material took form. Or the energy level that it h

Helium-3 production from tritium.

The fusion energy is theoretical level. The fusion systems are still at the laboratory level. That means there are many problems to overcome before commercial fusion systems. The fusion fuel can be produced from heavy water. The system bombs deuterium with neutrons. Or it can shoot deuterium or some other atoms against each other.  That can create neutron stripping, which transforms deuterium into tritium, and then the laser systems can increase the dividing speed of tritium. In that process, tritium transforms into Heluim-3 (3^He). If the system wants to produce Helium-3 for experimental or pulsed plasma rocket engines, that thing doesn't require that the Helium-3 production must be economical.  Hydrogen's heavy isotopes deuterium and tritium are the most promising fusion fuels. The problem is where the system can produce tritium or Helium3 for the fusion fuel. The 100 million K temperature allows two Heium-3 atoms can create fusion. There is the possibility to produce Hellium

Is some quantum version of the bubble pulse effect behind the dark energy?

  "Dark energy’s role in propelling the universe’s accelerated expansion presents a pivotal challenge in astrophysics, driving ongoing research and space missions dedicated to uncovering the nature of this mysterious force." (ScitechDaily, Deciphering the Dark: The Accelerating Universe and the Quest for Dark Energy)  Is the universe formed in energy projection? That traveled in some kind of space vacuum. That requires. That there was some kind of energy field before the Big Bang.  Quantum field is the common name of all power fields in the universe.  Is dark energy a gravitational version of the bubble pulse effect, that detonates submarines? In the bubble pulse effect, the bubble or some other projection. That travels in the larger bubble causing a very high explosive explosion. So could that effect be possible in electromagnetic and gravitational fields? Gravitational fields differ from electromagnetic fields because of their wavelength.  In some models, the double bubble,
