Have heard much about the quality of the USQ Astrophysics program and if this isn't proof of that, then I have no idea what is. Amazing!
Thanks! I completely forgot to add the tag!
Paper day📄Delighted to announce that my paper has officially been published in The Astrophysical Journal this morning! How much contribution can the mechanism of helicity condensation alone contribute toward resolving the Open Flux Problem? ➡️ iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3...

Congrats to my friend and colleague Lilli Nadol for her excellent work with Thomas Neukirch being the Editors' Choice in Sol. Phys.! Very exciting!

ESA @esa.int Solar Orbiter is diving towards the Sun and should be crossing the heliospheric current sheet very soon; which is anchored by a nested active region! Later this month we will try to make observations of fast solar wind sources, with coronal hole 3 looking like a promising candidate!
Spent last week’s no-teaching week slogging through some code manually checking the output results. Big moment tomorrow to see if how much of it was actually worth it... 🙃
Hey! I'm Jonah, a PhD student at the University of St Andrews working on modelling of the solar corona—particularly non-potential models.

Looking forward to further engaging with the heliophysics community and get better exposure to what everyone has been working on!
