Irish Astronomy Week | Home The goal behind Irish Astronomy Week and its theme β€œThe Stars for Everyone” is to inspire, encourage and help provide opportunities for people of all ages to connect with the Universe.

We discussed the latest discoveries, why studying solar activity matters, and how it connects to space weather and Earth. Plus, it’s the perfect time to get excited about astronomy for the upcoming #IrishAstronomyWeek 1-8th March www.irishastronomyweek.ie! 🌌✨

Today, on International Day of Women and Girls in Science, I’m proud to be one of over 100 women contributing to the Solar Orbiter mission! πŸš€

Five years of Solar Orbiter - and counting! 🌞 ✨ πŸš€

Looking forward to the new insights the PUNCH mission will bring on the corona and solar wind - and looking forward to playing with the observational data 🌞🐍! Best of luck to the team for a successful launch in the coming weeks! β˜€οΈπŸš€" #heliophysics

Spotted some apt graffiti by Broombridge this morning while cycling along the Royal Canal to Dunsink - right at the spot where Hamilton first wrote it down:

iΒ² = jΒ² = kΒ² = ijk = -1

We have a PhD studentship to look at the causal relations in space weather (specifically, the effects of quasi-periodic solar flares on the ionosphere). It's a joint project across depts of Computer Science and Meteorology at Reading. Details here:

Science Nugget: High-Energy Insights from an Escaping Coronal Mass Ejection - Solar Orbiter - Cosmos Solar eruptive events, consisting of both solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), represent some of the most energetically dynamic phenomena in our solar system. These events involve the rapid...

X-rays from a coronal mass ejection (CME)? 🌞πŸ’₯
My recent @ESASolarOrbiter science nugget shows how escaping CMEs can produce high-energy X-ray emission, giving us some fresh insights into solar eruptive event particle acceleration ⚑

Check out this video+sonification showing how ESA's Solar Orbiter mission has captured the Sun’s increasing activity! 🌞

I worked on making this movie, combining EUV images from EUI (β˜€οΈ) and X-ray flare data from STIX. Sonification by Klaus Nielsen.
