There are also powerful magnetic fields associated with fission and fusion. The powerful earthen magnetic field may in some way be shaping the sun.

I don't think it is fully known. It's thousands of miles away and few FE'ers have access to the instruments that would assist them to find out. I suspect fusion or fission, though I could not say with certainty.

Yes, fusion.
