What is it called when particles from the sun strike atoms in the ionosphere near the poles?
The described activity causes the generation of the Aurora Borealis and the Aurora Australis.
Which part of the thermosphere causes the Aurora Borealis?
The Aurora Borealis and its southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmosphere. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space.(see the related question below)
What causes the Aurora borealis to end?
The sun
What from the sun causes the aurora borealis?
Solar Winds
How are the Northern Lights - Aurora Borealis - related to the earth's magnetic field?
An Aurora Australis or an Aurora Borealis occurs when streams of particles from the sun's solar winds hit the earth's atmosphere at an angle (as can only happen at the poles). These particles interact with the edges of the earth's magnetic field and when they collide with the gases in the ionosphere, the particles glow creating curtains of blue, green and magenta. An aurora is sometimes said to be accompanied by a crackling sound, but this has never been recorded and scientists are at a loss to explain what causes the sound.

What causes the Aurora borealis (Northern lights)?
Aurora Borealis is caused by particles hitting earth's atmosphere thermosphere and they are stopped, so they give of their energy in the "Northern Lights" or Aurora Borealis.

What causes the aurora borealis's colorful lights?
Because they reflect light
What cause solar wind on earth?
Charged particles emitted continuously by the sun are known as the Solar Wind. It is mostly deflected by the Earth's magnetic field, but can be 'witnessed' around the poles when it interacts with the atmosphere and causes the Aurora - called the Aurora Borealis in the north and the Aurora Australis in the south - which shows up as an apparently moving 'curtain' of coloured light.

In which layer of the atmosphere are the ionized particles that causes the aurora borealis?
Thermosphere, to be specific Ionosphere.
What causes the aurora borealis the southern and northern polar regions?
Solar winds find a small break in the magnetic field.The aurora is actually a radioactive burst and the colors you see are due to the magnetic fields
