Nope, but they are related. At the north and south poles, magnetism is weakest. As a result, high-energy particles from the Sun are allowed through. These particles collide with the uppera tmosphere, knocking photons loose. Photons are the 'light' that we see. Different energy levels produce different colors in the resulting Aurora.

Why photon show both electric and magnatic field?

Protons are positively charged that's why they show electric field while magnetic field develops when electric field is in either direction so protons develops magnetic fields also.

If water was super pressurized into a dense ball and was the center of the earth what would happen?

im thinking we wouldn't have an atmosphere cause that comes from volcanoes and stuff which comes from the earths core, also we wouldn't have the same magnetic field if one at all which would alternate the amount of space radiation hitting the surface... hmmm would probly also mess up the earths rotation and depending on the density would probly bring the moon crashing into it because of a stronger gravitational field maybe... =) just some ideas
