The Sun - in common with all stars - gives off electromagnetic radiation and charged particles.

The electromagnetic radiation is called, depending on the frequency and wavelength of the radiation, radio, heat, light, X-rays or gamma rays.

The charged particles are generally free electrons (sometimes called "beta particles", or helium ions ("alpha particles" or free protons. These particles make up the "solar wind" and when especially intense, are sometimes referred to as a "solar storm".
