About event

The solar atmosphere is a dynamic system with phenomena including solar flares, coronal mass ejections, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves, plasma oscillations and time-dependent heating. In Solar Physics, we are now living in the era of data intensive observations and so, with the right techniques and understanding, we can start to address fundamental questions around the physical scenarios of energy releases and plasma heating.

The European Commission has recognised this challenge (and scientific opportunity) and so has created the DynaSun Network: Dynamics of the solar corona in the era of data intensive observations. This international network will discuss key challenges in solar physics, including understanding of mechanisms for plasma heating, and energetics and physical scenarios of energy releases such as flares and coronal mass ejections.

This workshop will focus on waves, oscillations, particle acceleration and reconnection associated with solar flares, as well as the morphology and evolution of coronal mass ejections. It will consist of contributed and invited talks covering these topics, and will also include tutorials on advanced techniques associated with data intensive observations, as well as advanced numerical simulations. We also welcome presentations around other relevant research topics.
