Current sheets accumulate on the surface of an object. it's specific charge differs pending the charge states of other objects in proximity. Equalization of that charge is the natural state which charged particles will always try to achieve.

But modern astrophysics disqualify macro-scale charge body interactions by Debye radius, which basically says that gravity does not allow for enough charge separation between 2 bodies to justify the production of x-rays via electron cascade i.e. current flow. The sun could barely hold 100 coulombs.

But time after time, we see long period comets cross the equatorial axis of the sun and watch outbreaks of sunspots and comet-directed M to X class flares.

And time after time, the tail produced is attributed to sublimation of water ice caused by radiant heating and friction caused by solar wind.
