That is a nice idea, but we have no observations of this actually happening, and a 'plasma ball' or plasmoid like this would not have an internal structure like planets have (differentiated and a core), the pinch products are hollow....there is no way it could cool off and become planet-like..unless you know a way...comingfrom wrote:Thank you, Daniel.
Solar Flares are your average observable "garden variety" fissioning process.
When a large flare and CME occurs, a huge spinning ball of plasma is ejected from the Sun.
I hypothesize, that when a critical mass/energy level is ejected, that such a CME will form into a celestial body.
And after celestial bodies form they draw in currents from their parent star's emitting field and grow.
