Good question. Dr. Pierre Robitaille is probably the best person in the planet to ask, because he revolutionized MRI imaging in this very aspect.

If you're into astronomy then you may be interested in his channel. He's revolutionizing astronomy.

Here's a spoiler. Stars are not gaseous spheres. They are comprised of condensed matter. Demonstrably. Irrefutably.

Real science is never settled.

Plasma forms structures when there is almost no gravity.

These interactions would be much stronger when there is a magnetic field or electric field.
