,1,This video shows a section from a 3D simulation with a dynamo magnetic field at a resolution of 5 kilometres. The section is taken near the base of the chromosphere, where the flow is dominated by shock waves. The part on the left shows the vertical velocity of the plasma; the video on the right shows the magnetic field. In both representations, bright regions indicate flows towards the viewer; black regions are flows towards the Sun’s interior. In this side-by-side view, the connection between the magnetic field and the plasma becomes apparent, for instance when looking at the vortexes forming near the upper edge of the section. Such vortexes are, in fact, facilitating heat transfer from the magnetic field to the plasma, as the simulation results showed. Video credit: E. Khomenko

,1,Hunting men, gathering women — that is the picture of prehistory as many of us know it. In this documentary, we delve into the realm of gender history, challenging the traditional narrative that has long shaped our understanding of past societies.
Researchers and historians, featured in this documentary, dispute the long-held belief of the male hunter as the primary provider, suggesting a more nuanced perspective of gender roles since the beginning of human history. Early archaeologists, often influenced by the gender norms of their own times in the 19th and early 20th centuries, overlooked evidence that contradicted this simplistic gender dynamic. Utilizing modern forensic science techniques, new discoveries are reshaping our understanding of gender roles, unearthing stories of Stone Age artists, affluent Bronze Age princesses, and axe-wielding female Vikings. These revelations are pivotal in redefining our cultural and gendered past, as this documentary unveils.
