It's not the total heat.
So you got to keep that in mind when you're thinking of this disparity between these temperatures.
So in this study, in the context of the study, dust in our solar system and near the sun, it's not house dust when everyone uses the word dust.
This is, of course, obviously not the same thing.
What I'm talking about here is zodiacal dust.
This is tiny interplanetary debris from, say, comets and asteroids.
It's composed of lots of different things, silicate minerals, carbon-rich material, metal grains, sulfides, lots of different components.
That's the dust that you will find throughout our entire solar system.
Now, the previous research on trying to deal with this mystery focused on
a few things.
When they were trying to study why the corona was so much hotter, they would look at the near-sun environment, the electrons, the ions, the magnetic fields, and the plasma waves, right?
And how all of those transport and dissipate energy in the solar atmosphere.
So that's what previous research focused on, those things.
The dust was long assumed to be largely irrelevant so close to the sun.
I think a lot of them thought that the dust didn't even survive
the close environment to the sun.
So it was kind of irrelevant.
And that was until the Parker Solar Probe, which I think we've discussed this on the show.
It's been a while.
This was launched in 2018.
