Hi Maol,
I meant to answer your post but apparently never did. Better late than never!
[quote]What explanation does EU provide for this? Does this dwarf have an internal dynamo, or is it receiving energy from a plasma filament conducting from elsewhere? ... or ... Watts up with this?
[/quote]Auroras on planets within this solar system are caused by the planet's magnetic field interacting with charged particles from the Sun, that is, the solar wind, solar flares, or CME's (coronal mass ejections).

Put another way, auroras on planets in our solar system are caused by an external electric current (in the solar system, from the Sun). The gas giants and to a lesser degree the terrestrial planets can have aurora displays.
So, the auroras on these brown dwarfs are externally powered. They are receiving charged particles while traveling through interstellar space, galactic currents are the cause of their auroras.

[quote="Wal Thornhill"]Wal Thornhill, Thunderbolts Chief Science Advisor, demonstrates why an important science goal for the infrared JWST is an examination of brown dwarfs to verify they are gas-giant sized bodies enclosed in a huge red anode glow. [/quote]from:

The discovery of methane emissions and auroras on a brown dwarf stars seems to fall directly in line with Thornhill's theorizing that in the Electric Universe, brown dwarf stars are basically gas giant planets traveling in interstellar space. This observation of a Brown Dwarf star that seems to have characteristics much like a gas giant planet, supports the EU view.

We already know that gas giant planets in our own solar system exhibit auroral displays and have an abundance of methane and so does the brown dwarf that is the subject of this observation from the JWST.

Thanks, nick.

It should only be a matter of time, until the implications are realized:

Methane -> lots of carbon -> carbon core (at least).
Would seem very incompatible with the standard model of star formation.

Also, though I'm not up-to-date on standard models, wouldn't a carbon core prevent hydrogen or deuterium fusion in those models?

[quote]On an isolated, cold brown dwarf 47 light-years away, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) picked up the signs of methane. But while the gas isn’t unusual on the gigantic worlds, JWST detected emission from the methane, rather than the usual absorption. Now, researchers think the emission may come from the glowing curtain of an aurora on the failed star.[/quote]

Briefly considered putting this in Planetary Science instead, as it is barely a 'star'.

This discovery really ought to make some mainstreamers reconsider if their model may be a tad flawed, and long-overdue for replacement.

Trying to explaing it away as coming from an orbiting planet is somewhat amusing. Should be too faint to detect.
