Disruptions to these "current sheets" are believed to be the source of the "beats" in QPP signals. The fast-moving plasma creates a current, or stream of charged particles, that runs vertically down the center of the plasma loop in a thin sheet. This process unleashes an enormous amount of energy and forces superheated loops of ionized gas, or plasma, and radiation into space. Solar flares happen when the sun's magnetic field lines get tangled up and then snap back into place like a rubber band. The "unexpected" second signal, which seemed to be linked to the original signal, allowed the researchers to pinpoint what was happening during solar flares to trigger the pair of signals, Yu said. (Solar flare classes include A, B, C, M and X, with each class being at least 10 times more powerful than the previous one.)Īfter analyzing data collected by NJIT's Expanded Owens Valley Solar Array (EOVSA) in California and NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, the team discovered a secondary heartbeat signal. 12, 2022, in the journal Nature Communications (opens in new tab), Yu and colleagues analyzed a heartbeat signal contained within a medium C-class flare that harmlessly erupted from the sun on July 13, 2017.
THE SUN ORIGIN SECRETS FULL
This remastered edition contains the premiere release of the full "Reflects Motion" three-part suite, and one previously unreleased track from the session tapes, "Project Black Mass.In the study published Dec. Several of these tracks - "Friendly Galaxy" and "Love in Outer Space" - became concert staples in years ahead. "Now that's impossible," said Ra, and Jenkins got the gig as "space vocalist." Calvin Newborn's electric guitar on the opening number is a fresh sound the band rarely worked with guitarists during this period. "Now I want to try the impossible." Jenkins eventually chanced upon the technique of singing into a backwards ram's horn, creating a human wah-wah. As recounted in John Szwed's bio Space is the Place, Jenkins auditioned for Sun Ra as an R&B singer, but the bandleader rejected him because he wanted a singer who could achieve the "impossible." "The possible has been tried and failed," Sunny told Jenkins. Secrets marked the debut (on "Solar Differentials") of idiosyncratic vocalist Art Jenkins, who thereafter appeared sporadically on Saturn albums (and beyond) in cameo roles. New York, the artist's recently adopted hometown, was serving to liberate the composer's imagination. There are few "genre" works on Secrets, and much less of what was conventionally considered "jazz" during Sunny's Chicago roost. It's less an orchestra than an expanded combo. Despite the sustained pounding, there is a sparseness to most arrangements, fewer instruments in the mix, with piano often serving as counterpoint to the rhythmic clatter. Sun Ra's developing Afrocentric consciousness inspired many of these relentlessly thunderous grooves.
The album features an arsenal of percussion, often in the hands of Arkestra horn players, reinforced by the thumping bass of Ronnie Boykins.
As on many of the Workshop sessions, drummer Tommy Hunter served as recording engineer, and his proto-psychedelic reverb saturates a few of these performances.
And in what was a recurring motif of the Choreographer's milieu, the recordings themselves have a raw quality, replete with warehouse acoustics, distortion, erratic mic proximity, and a limited frequency spectrum. Per what had long been the bandleader's trademark, many titles point to destinations beyond Earth's stratosphere, while paradoxically echoing rhythms and forms inspired by Africa. Secrets of the Sun was recorded in 1962, but didn't appear on Saturn vinyl until '65. The sunspot cycle dominates the behaviour of everything that is of magnetic origin on the Sun and in interplanetary space. Apollo was important in Greek culture not only because he represented the sun, but also because he was seen to illuminate the worlds of music and reason. (Many unreleased tracks are first appearing on these post-2014 "Sun-tennial" digital remasters.) The ancient Greeks believed that the sun traveled across the sky in a flying chariot ridden by Zeus’s son, Apollo, and driven by fiery horses. These sessions produced tracks which (without organizing logic) achieved first commercial release on Saturn LPs throughout the 1960s and '70s. The band rehearsed there endlessly, and more often than not an open-reel tape deck was running. Secrets of the Sun is one of many Sun Ra albums which originated from sessions at the Choreographer's Workshop, a West 51st Street venue which served as the Arkestra's rehearsal space from roughly 1962 to 1965.
