one of the biggest puzzles is how the corona is hotter than the photosphere, when the photosphere is nearer to the core (where all the Sun's energy originates) than the corona. the solution must lie in the sun's magnetic field (as the only candidate capable of transfering so much energy), but the exact mechanism isn't understood.
