A solar type II radio bursts happening right now spaceweather.astron.nl/SolarKSP/data/…

Solar Challenge at the 7th Low Frequency Array Data school Mike Bumbeck students working on calibrating solar radio data on a type III and II radio burst☀️📡 great job!

We are currently hosting the 7th LOFAR Data school. We'll be introducing the LOFAR system to new LOFAR community members, whether they are students, postdocs, or staff. We welcome our newest members into the LOFAR family!

Still a week to apply to the @astron JIVE Summer student program astron.nl/education/summ… Great opportunity to work with us this summer, there is also a possibility of a project on the sun ☀️📡

Still some days to submit an abstract to our session: HJ01: Radio emission from the Sun, Heliosphere, and Planets (Pietro Zucca, Patrick Galopeau, Natchimuthuk Gopalswamy, Yihua Yan) ☀️📷 Conference Website: atrasc.com/home.php/Abstr… Paper Submission Deadline: January 20th, 2024

Kicking off with the Solar Ionosphere and cosmic ray session at #SALFIX ☀️

Take the opportunity to learn how to use the biggest telescope at low frequency! Join the 7th Low Frequency Array Data School, 15-19 April 2024https://indico.astron.nl/event/315/page/176-announcements ASTRON
☀️📡

Just concluded our solar heliosphere and planetary science session #URSIGASS photo with some participating colleagues ☀️🪐📡

Arrived at the URSI GASS in Sapporo, looking forward for our session on Solar, Heliosphere and Planetary radio emission, lots of nice talks.

Very active Sun ☀️📡 Tonight ionospheric scintillation high due to proton storm. Summary of ongoing noise radio storm. Low Frequency Array IDOLS

For all our #LOFAR users: the next LOFAR Data School will be held at ASTRON, from April 15th to April 19th.

The STELLAR_H2020 Final Meeting was a great success! From summaries of project achievements and discussions of how to strengthen our Low Frequency Array collaborations even further, to walks along historic old #Plovdiv 's cobblestone streets, and a visit to the Low Frequency Array_BG station site.

Very nice shock signature in the corona (Type II radio burst) recorded with Low Frequency Array IDOLS today.

Update on the solar cycle.

It's hard to know where we are in the cycle from sunspot area (or number) alone. But the average latitude of sunspots (bottom panel) repeats regularly. It's roughly the same for big or small cycles.
