Ok, but what causes the increase in mass? To say that energy increases therefore you need more energy to accelerate isn't a proper explanation for the increase in mass. There must be a cause for this effect.

Correct me if I'm wrong but magnetic fields are created by electric current and the ribbon is present where the magnetic field is most bent, therefore could this phenomenon be caused by excitation of matter from the solar wind by a local z-pinch?
