Before the Hubble observation of Gliese 752, astronomers thought magnetic fields in stars required the same dynamo process which creates magnetic fields on the Sun.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Before the Hubble observation of Gliese 752, astronomers thought magnetic fields in stars required the same dynamo process which creates magnetic fields on the Sun. In the classic solar model heat generated by nuclear fusion reactions at the star's center escapes through a radiative zone just outside the core. The heat travels from the radiative core to the star's surface through a convection zone. In this region, heat bubbles to the surface by motions similar to boiling in a pot of water.
