Good Grief! What an amazing dance to avoid using a word.
How many analogies do they have to use to gingerly step around what they are actually describing? How many euphemisms can the authors of this article come up with to avoid using the word "currents?"
What they are trying to describe - without offending the mavens of the orthodox cosmology who hold the purse strings of scientific publishing, grants, and funding - is something that mainstream astronomers and cosmologists have been denying for almost 70 years: electrical currents flow in space through plasmas and that electromagnetism and plasmas have a decided effect on cosmology.
"The results are surprising because no theory predicted upstream spots," said researcher Bertrand Bonfond of the University of Liege in Belgium."
That's a false assertion. Seven time Nobel Prize nominee physicist Kristian Birkeland and Nobel Prize winning physicist Hannes Alfvén predicted it starting in about 1900.
You'd think these space scientists would be somewhat familiar with the history of Auroral and plasma physics. Apparently not.
They've bought into the canard that space is neutral and that there are no flows of electrons between astral bodies. It's accepted dogma in orthodox cosmology... without a shred of evidence... and contrary to mountains of evidence to the contrary.
The electrical Universe theorists who follow Birkeland and Alfvén are not surprised at all at the surprise of the mainstream orthodox scientists whose cosmology has failed time and time again to predict any of these anomalies... while they are entirely expected and predicted in the Electric Universe.
When might these proponents of this "new theory" start wondering why the great "volcano" on Io has moved its plume over 180 Km since it was first observed... and how that could be possible if it were a merely volcano lava spout?
Indeed; I sit here in utter amazement! Words can't begin to describe my unmitigated and unadulterted disdain for the effort the scientific community® puts into propping up their failed theories. I'm speechless.
BTW, there needs to be a name for this dance; the Chicken Dance is already taken. What about the "Dogma Dance"??? Or maybe, the "Grant Dance"? The "Scientific Shuffle"??? Or, the "Sagan Sashay"?
The aurora is visible here most every time it is dark enough. If something were adding particles, bsides the sun alone, we would see additional display. No doubt about it.

RE: “Good Grief! What an amazing dance to avoid using a word.”
Can we please call it the Electric Shuffle? Ohh, wait, that’s taken.
Electric Slide? Nah... Too cheesy.
The “ostrich dance?” *Heads in the sand, butts hangin’ out in the breeze...*
Now THAT’s a comic image!

Just a refresher:
Flow of positive charges in one direction in a circuit: “Conventional current.”
Flow of negative charges in one direction in a circuit: “electron flow” or “electron current.” Considered the opposite direction from the “conventional current” in EE circuit diagrams.
Flow of positive charges one way and negative charges the opposite way in the same circuit: “Bi-directional current” or “bi-directional flow.” (Additive, as I recall.)
Equal amounts of positive and negative charges flowing in the SAME direction essentially cancel each other out in a circuit diagram, so there’s effectively no current.
From my understanding anyway...
