arithmetic spiral

listen to the pronunciation of arithmetic spiral
English - English
A spiral that increases in distance from the point of origin at a constant rate

The Parker spiral is the shape of the Sun's magnetic field as it extends through the solar system. Unlike the familiar shape of the field from a bar magnet, the Sun's extended field is twisted into an arithmetic spiral by the magnetohydrodynamic influence of the solar wind.
