The flyby on 27 November went well and placed Solar Orbiter onto the correct orbit for its science phase to begin. RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, UiO, takes part in the mission.
Tired of zoom meetings and home office, RoCS PhD student Rebecca Robinson arranged herself a job on the Hurtigruten as an Expedition Lecturer. The lectures on the Sun and the Northern Lights are part of the doctoral degree at the Department of Theoretical Astrophysics.
Four publications have been accepted for publication from RoCS in October. Researcher Henrik Eklund and Postdoctoral Fellows Ana Belén Griñón Marin and Atul Mohan present their latest findings.
RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics is in steady cruise phase after their lift off as a Centre of Excellence (SFF) 1st of November 2017. With 48 employees from around the world they aim high.
Two publications have been accepted for publication from RoCS in August. Doctoral Research Fellow Souvik Bose and Guest Researcher Daniel Nóbrega Siverio present their latest findings.
The SolarALMA project run by RoCS - the Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics - has just been concluded. The result is an archive with science-ready ALMA observations of the Sun. The archive is now open for all scientists.
The European Solar Physics Meeting (ESPM) is held this week with 635 participants and 413 talks. Associate professor Tiago Pereira at RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics has the main responsibility for one of the largest Zoom meetings ever organized in solar physics.
Every two years the Norwegian Research Council invites for research proposals through the Space Science Programme. This year a project from RoCS, with project leader Professor Luc Rouppe van der Voort, receives funding.
Nature Astronomy asked Adjunct Professor Guillaume Aulanier at RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics to comment on the revival of an old theory in Solar Physics.
A group of researchers is using artificial intelligence techniques to calibrate some of NASA’s images of the Sun, helping improve the data that scientists use for solar research. RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics partakes in the research.
As one of nine Centres of Excellence (SFF) at the University of Oslo, RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, has become a thriving international hub with 48 employees from around the globe.
- The official starting date is the 1st of July and I'm very excited to get the project up and running, says Postdoctoral Fellow Petra Kohutova who received the grant from The Norwegian Research Council.
Space mission Solar Orbiter’s SoloHI instrument captures its first coronal mass ejection, which are important drivers of space weather. RoCS – Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, UiO contributes in the space mission that makes it possible.
Many people start in astrophysics because of the beauty in trying to understand the mysteries of our universe. Myself (and maybe others?) because we like the beauty of using computers in challenging ways plus cool mathematics when applied to astrophysics, writes Maria Guadalupe Barios Sazo at RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics.
Bart De Pontieu, Professor II, explores the findings, advances made, challenges and future hopes for the data collected by IRIS, the NASA Small Explorer spacecraft.
An Early Career Researcher Prize has been awarded to Dr. Daniel Nóbrega-Siverio working at Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, UiO.
Two publications have been accepted for publication from RoCS in February. Postdoctoral fellows Ana Belén Griñón Marin and Atul Mohan present their latest findings.
A nice start of the year: Four publications have been accepted for publication from RoCS in January. See the overview here.
The spacecraft Solar Orbiter has captured three of the four rocky planets on video on it’s way to getting closer to the sun. Doctoral Research Fellow Aditi Bhatnagar at RoCS, UiO tells us more about it.
Good talks, good discussions and many participants logged on. RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics are doing their first virtual workshop this week. Every afternoon for four days.
Heating of the solar atmosphere (i.e., the chromosphere, the transition region, and the corona) has been a much-debated topic in solar physics for many decades. Seven researchers and scientists at RoCS - Rosseland Centre for Solar Physics, UiO, comes up with some answers in a worldwide cooperation.
