The EU-funded design study of the world's largest sub-millimetre astronomical telescope is about to start. The work, led by the University of Oslo, includes a study to power the telescope by renewable energy.

"The favourite part of my job is the collection, reduction and analysis of observational data. I particularly enjoy the process of “cleaning” and exploring the data to reveal their hidden information."

Astrophysicists of the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics and the Rosseland Center for Solar Physics invite passers-by to observe the Moon and share the wonder right in Oslo city center, along the harbour promenade.

The SolarALMA project was funded with a Consolidator Grant by the European Research Council (ERC) and ran from September 2016 to August 2021. The aim was to utilise the first observations of the Sun with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which promises significant steps towards understanding the outer layers of the solar atmosphere with possible contributions to solving the coronal heating problem.

Observing the Sun with the Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) is still in its early stages and needs further development. This ESO-funded ALMA Development Study aims at improving ALMA’s observing capabilities and thus the quality and scientific impact of future observations. The study is hosted by the Nordic ALMA Regional Centre node at Onsala Space Observatory, Sweden, and led by the solar ALMA team at the University of Oslo.  

RoCS, the freshly established Norwegian Centre of Excellence, welcomes four new PhD students in Solar Physics.
