have more particles and more interactions and eventually you have this because kate of particle trillions of them. which are going to. the only difference between the polar lights and these particle showers is the energy content of the respective cosmic rays. the particles that come from the sun have a low energy level and are diverted from the earth's magnetic field to the poles. in the added layers of the eye on a sphere they energise gases like oxygen nitrogen and helium when the gases return to their normal state they much photons that we know as a war as. the earth's magnetic field however cannot deflect the most energy rich particles cosmic rays from other stars reach our atmosphere all around the globe
