LOL! None of this would be a mystery if the idiots who call themselves modern astrophysicists knew ANYTHING about the plasma cosmology/electric universe. Indeed, all those structures were PREDICTED by the proponents of this alternative to gnome cosmology decades ago … at a time when gnome cosmologists (i.e., mainstream astrophysicists) were actively arguing against even the existence of such ubiquitous electromagnetic phenomena in space. But at least the article once again forces the mainstream to admit they don’t understand what’s going on.New Cosmic Magnetic Field Structures Discovered: Superbubbles, Giant Loops and X-shaped Fields

The spiral galaxy NGC 4217 has a huge magnetic field that is shown here as green lines. The data for this visualization were recorded with the radio telescope Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) of the National Science Foundation. The image of the galaxy shown from the side is taken from data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Kitt Peak National Observatory.
New Cosmic Magnetic Field Structures Discovered in Galaxy NGC 4217
Superbubbles, giant loops and X-shaped magnetic field structures – this galaxy boasts a veritable wealth of shapes. How such structures are formed is a mystery. A new study provides some clues.
Spiral galaxies such as our Milky Way can have sprawling magnetic fields. There are various theories about their formation, but so far the process is not well understood. An international research team has now analysed the magnetic field of the Milky Way-like galaxy NGC 4217 in detail on the basis of radio astronomical observations and has discovered as yet unknown magnetic field structures.

When evaluating the data from NGC 4217, the researchers found several remarkable structures. The galaxy has an X-shaped magnetic field structure, which has also been observed in other galaxies, extending far outwards from the galaxy disk, namely over 20,000 light-years.
In addition to the X-shape, the team found a helix structure and two large bubble structures, also called superbubbles. The latter originate from places where many massive stars explode as supernovae, but also where stars are formed that emit stellar winds in the process. Researchers therefore suspect a connection between these phenomena.
“It is fascinating that we discover unexpected phenomena in every galaxy whenever we use radio polarization measurements,” points out Dr. Rainer Beck from the MPI for Radio Astronomy in Bonn, one of the authors of the study. “Here in NGC 4217, it is huge magnetic gas bubbles and a helix magnetic field that spirals upwards into the galaxy’s halo.”
The analysis moreover revealed large loop structures in the magnetic fields along the entire galaxy. “This has never been observed before,” explains Yelena Stein. “We suspect that the structures are caused by star formation, because at these points matter is ejected outward.”
And at this rate they never will. But then understanding is not really their objective now, is it? Their objective is to keep the money flowing (so they can continue to buy nice homes, cars, vacations, and educations for their children) .. and to avoid the public embarrassment of having to admit they've been such fools for so many decades. And of course the media that report on this topic want the same things, so they'll go along with the scam as long as they can as well. Just saying ....
