The Solar Wind. (and photons if you mean the light that the Sun emits).
The Earth's magnetic field helps protect our planet from the harmful effects of the solar wind, a constant stream of charged particles emitted by the Sun.
They make up part of the solar wind
Solar wind is a stream of charged particles, mainly electrons and protons, blown from the outer atmosphere of the Sun into space. It carries the Sun's magnetic field and can impact Earth's magnetosphere, potentially causing geomagnetic storms and auroras.
Solar flares
The density of the solar wind is significantly lower than that of the solar corona. The solar wind, which consists of charged particles emitted by the Sun, has a density of about 1 to 10 particles per cubic centimeter as it travels through space. In contrast, the solar corona, the outer atmosphere of the Sun, has a density ranging from approximately 10^8 to 10^10 particles per cubic centimeter. This stark difference highlights how the solar wind is a diffuse outflow of particles, while the corona is much denser, albeit still relatively low in density compared to other astrophysical environments.
It is solar wind
The general dissipation of charged particles from the sun is called the Solar Wind. Occasionally the sun also emits vast quantities of matter from bursts known as "Coronal Mass Ejections". (The Corona is the Sun's atmosphere.)
solar wind
Solar wind is created by the Sun's outer atmosphere, called the corona, which is made up of highly energized particles. These particles are ejected into space at high speeds, carrying magnetic fields with them. This constant stream of charged particles flowing away from the Sun is what we call solar wind.
The solar wind is made up of charged particles (plasma) that are ejected from the Sun's outer atmosphere. While space is mostly a vacuum, these particles travel through space and interact with the magnetic fields of planets, including the Earth. This creates the phenomena we observe as the solar wind.

Solar wind, which consists of charged particles like electrons and protons, is emitted by the sun into space. These particles can travel at high speeds and can interact with the Earth's magnetic field, causing phenomena like auroras. The solar wind also plays a role in shaping the structure of our solar system.
