Incidentally, the Earth's magnetic field does more than trap solar wind particles.

顺便说一句，地球磁场的作用不仅仅是捕获太阳风粒子。

The Sun releases a continuous stream of charged particles, called solar  wind, and intermittently strikes in deadly bursts known as solar particle events.

太阳释放出连续不断的带电粒子流， 称为太阳风，并间歇性地发生致命的爆发， 称为太阳粒子事件。
