Below is a section from a complete article about the sun. Here's the link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun
Although it is the nearest star to Earth and has been intensively studied by scientists, many questions about the Sun remain unanswered, such as why its outer atmosphere has a temperature of over 1 million K while its visible surface (the photosphere) has a temperature of less than 6,000 K. Current topics of scientific inquiry include the Sun's regular cycle of sunspot activity, the physics and origin of flares and prominences, the magnetic interaction between the chromosphere and the corona, and the origin (propulsion source) of solar wind.

If you enter "the sun" into search and open the link to bbc.co.uk it will tell you everything you need to know about the sun.
Good luck
