Surface Mass Ejection (Nov 2023)
Surface Mass Ejection (Nov 2023)
A surface mass ejection (SME), depicted in this illustration, is a relatively recently discovered
phenomenon in stellar astrophysics. They are similar to coronal mass ejections but on a far larger
scale. During an SME, a star can release hundreds of billions of times more material than a coronal
eve
