The study of the Sun, or solar physics, is a vibrant field of research in the UK. Over 150 UK scientists are actively investigating the dynamic evolution of our closest star using numerical, computational and observational techniques. The UK Solar Physics community (UKSP) is a Specialist Scientific Group affiliated to the Royal Astronomical Society.

This website serves as a repository of information for the UKSP community. Its pages contain community news and information about national and international conferences, employment and study opportunities, solar missions, and computing resources.
