Training Schools and Thematic Workshops Highlights

  • Print

Aimed at training the new generation of scientists in the field of high-resolution solar Physics, these schools and workshops are being achieved by means of a dedicated program that foresees:

  • The organization of summer/winter schools for PhD students and novel post-doc researchers on topics related to the development of new instrumentation for solar observations, diagnostic tools, hot solar research topics and fields of mutual interest for solar and stellar physicists.
  • The organization of thematic workshops matched with the training schools (i.e. immediately after or in splinter sessions).

Highlights: SOLARNET Meetings on Solar Physics

  • Print

Meetings on Solar Physics: To put in contact different solar physics communities and researchers involved in other fields, aimed at achieving the following goals:

  • Periodic meetings on topics related to solar physics and solar – stellar connections, where the participants can show the results of their research and profit from discussion time slots devoted to exchange of experience and competences.
  • The fostering of collaborations aimed at improving the interaction between theoreticians, experts in numerical simulations and observers.
  • The sharing of pipelines and software for solar data reduction and analysis.
  • The consolidation of high-resolution MHD simulations to analyze the performance of advanced instrumentation for high-resolution solar observations.
  • Promotion of seismological studies as a way to understand solar/ stellar interiors

These meetings are being also a very appropriate environment for the dissemination of knowledge.

SOLARNET Trans-national Access and Service Programme supports the access of the European solar Physics community to some of the best European telescopes: GREGOR, THEMIS, SST, VTT located at Tenerife and La Palma, and to IBIS/DST and ROSA/DST instruments, installed at US Dunn Solar Telescope.

Every facility is offering an average of 20 observing days per year to external observers.

SOLARNET is also supporting the access to the most demanded European Science Data Centre: HINODE, BE-WISSDOM, and GSC-SDO. Access to these database repositories is freely provided through internet connection.

 

Mobility_Highlights

The SOLARNET Mobility of Young Researchers Programme aims to contribute to the professional development of researchers at the first steps of their careers, by offering short stays (up to 3 months) preferably at one of the SOLARNET member institutions, public or private entities.Other host institutions from anywhere are also considered, as far as they are aligned with the scientific interests and objectives of this European initiative. This Programme is promoting the integration of this new generation of researchers into the European solar physics community with long-lasting effects.
