SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the theoretical possibility of portals near or inside the sun, specifically examining concepts such as wormholes, black holes, and quantum tunneling. Participants concluded that while portals as depicted in popular media do not exist, wormholes represent the closest theoretical construct. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding general relativity and quantum mechanics to grasp these concepts fully. Key references include Wikipedia articles on wormholes and white holes, which provide foundational knowledge on these topics.

PREREQUISITES
  • General Relativity principles
  • Quantum Mechanics fundamentals
  • Understanding of black holes
  • Knowledge of wormhole theory
NEXT STEPS USEFUL FOR

Astrophysicists, theoretical physicists, and anyone interested in the intersection of quantum mechanics and general relativity, particularly in the context of cosmic phenomena.

Could there be a portal inside or near the sun? Consider the magnetic field and energy of the sun.
 
Astronomy news on Phys.org
Quantum Tunnelling

What is the theory on certain black holes and quantum tunnelling?

Main sequence stars and magnetic fields and the energy. Could there be a possibility of a formation of a portal? Or could a portal be made via atomic energy?
 


There is no such thing as a portal. The closest thing in modern physics is a wormhole which is an entirely theoretical construct and I'm unaware of any reason to think they would exist inside stars.

I suggest you start reading here

regarding 'portal':

A white hole, in general relativity, is a hypothetical region of spacetime which cannot be entered from the outside, but from which matter and light have the ability to escape. In this sense it is the reverse of a black hole, which can be entered from the outside, but from which nothing, including light, has the ability to escape. White holes appear in the theory of eternal black holes.

As has been said, there is no such thing as a "Portal" like the ones from the video game Portal and other things. The closest thing would probably be a wormhole, but even then it is not a portal in this sense.

As for the theories on Black Hole and Quantum Tunneling, I suggest reading the wikipedia articles on the basics of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.
