Solar physicists have uncovered how the Sun’s magnetic waves strengthen and grow as they emerge from its surface.

After ten months spent at the provisory offices at Ullevål Stadium, the astrophysicists are back to Svein Rosseland’s house, and all together celebrate the inauguration of the new premises for Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, one of the nine Centers for Excellence at UiO.
With the advent of the 4-m European Solar Telescope, the surface of the Sun will be observed with unprecedented detail. Such measurements will help us understand the twisting motions responsible for the generation of vortex flows and waves that propagate higher up in the solar atmosphere.
Håkon Dahle (ITA/UiO) and his international team observed straight into the bright and hot heart of a galaxy 11 billion years old in no less than 12 multiple, gravitationally lensed images. The finding casts light onto a crucial era in our universe’s history: the epoch of reionization.
Helle Bakke, second year Ph.D. student of the Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, is the winner of the "Audience choice" award at this year's PhD poster session.
The European Solar Telescope (EST), a new 4 meter class solar telescope to be built in the Canary Islands (Spain), will help solar researchers to discern the ultimate details of reconnection at the finest spatial scales thanks to its superb spatial resolution.
The Spanish Astronomical Society awards the prize for the best PhD thesis in astrophysics of 2018 to Dr. Daniel Nóbrega Siverio, one year-old postdoc at RoCS.
The Japanese Institute of Space and Astronautical Science has chosen for its next strategic mission LiteBIRD, a small space observatory. Six researches of the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics are involved in the project.
Each year the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics (ITA) took part to the well known and challenging Holmenkollen relay "as one". Until now.
The first annual report of the Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics (RoCS) is now available! Discover the vision and the scientific programme, the activities and the achievements done by all the people working at RoCS.
Dr. Einar Andreas Tandberg-Hanssen, Norwegian-American astrophysicist, born 6 August 1921, in Bergen, Norway, died on July 22, 2011, in Huntsville, Alabama, USA. Einar A. Tandberg-Hanssen spent most of his career in the United States, where he ultimately was director of the Space Science Laboratory at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. His main scientific interests and work were in solar physics.
Are we alone in the universe? NASA’s Kepler mission is contributing to answering this question by searching for Earth-like planets that may be capable of hosting life.
First first stars were born during the universe' youth according to new radiation maps. Much later that first anticipated.
The extra-solar planet GJ667Cc (or Gliese 667Cc) has been declared the most Earth-like object known outside of our solar system. It orbits a type of star which is studied at the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics.
The gigantic telescope set to extract a range of the sun's secrets picking up radio waves. Stay tuned!
Hi I am Clara and I am a solar physicist. My typical day at work consists of analysing observations and simulations of the solar atmosphere. But of course, even if it is my main activity, as many researchers that is not what I do all the time...
14. mars hvert år er π-dagen, dagen vi feirer den matematiske konstanten π.
Karbonmonoksid (CO) er en giftig gass for oss mennesker, men ute i verdensrommet er det derimot knyttet til liv -- i form av stjernedannelse. Jeg heter Marie og tar en doktorgrad i astrofysikk. Dette er det jeg forsker på.
Hei!
Jeg heter Renate, og jeg tar en mastergrad i astrofysikk ved universitetet i Oslo.
Hi, my name is Ada and I am a solar physicist!
Du har kanskje hørt om mørk materie, men hvordan ble det egentlig oppdaget og hvem oppdaget det? I denne bloggen kan du lese mer om Vera Rubin, som oppdaget at alt lys vi ser på stjernehimmelen kun utgjør en bitteliten del av det universet består av.
Hi I am Marta and I am astrophysicist.
Awarded for the best popular scientific article of 2018 by Forskerzonen, Peter Laursen reveals how scientists can survive the struggle between doing research and public outreach.
RoCS, the freshly established Norwegian Centre of Excellence, welcomes four new PhD students in Solar Physics.
