We would like to draw your attention to the ST17 session: ‘Advances in Our Understanding of Plasma Flows and Waves in the Solar Atmosphere from Single, Multi-fluid, and Kinetic Model Perspectives’ in the framework of the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society (AOGS) conference.
The 22nd Annual Meeting of the Asia Oceania Geosciences Society is taking place from 27 July to 1 August 2025 in Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. Further details regarding abstract submission, registration, accommodation and relevant deadlines can be found on the meeting website: https://www.asiaoceania.org/aogs2025/public.asp?page=home.asp
Abstract Submission Deadline: 18 Feb 2025
Conveners:
Dr Malcolm Druett (The University of Sheffield, United Kingdom), Prof Viktor Fedun (The University of Sheffield, United Kingdom), Dr Wenzhi Ruan (Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, Göttingen, Germany), Dr Sergiy Shelyag (Flinders University, Australia), Dr Abhishek Srivastava (Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) Varanasi, India)
Session Description
Modern high spatial and temporal resolution numerical and observational studies of dynamical solar processes e.g. flares, CMEs, vortices, and jets provide us with unprecedented possibilities to understand various plasma-waves and flow-related physical processes in the solar atmosphere and beyond. The development of theoretical models of the solar environment is essential to represent the complex interactions between magnetic fields, plasma flows and waves. In quiet-Sun and active regions, this interplay can result in turbulence generation, solar flares, vortex motion formation, plasma jet propulsion, and the beginning of instabilities. The combination of data from modern space and ground-based solar instruments, e.g., Parker Solar Probe, Solar Orbiter, Aditya-L1, IRIS, CHASE, COSMO, DKIST, DST, BBSO and SST with the simulation capabilities of codes such as ARMS, Bifrost, CO5BOLD, MURaM, MPI-AMRVAC, SAC, Ramen, and R2D2 empower us to interpret, theorise, forecast behaviours, as well as provide requirements for the design of future instrumentation and codes to be capable of answering scientific questions related to our understanding of coronal heating, the origin of supersonic wind, solar activity, and further concatenating to space weather. In the framework of the proposed session, we will be focussing on (1) energy transport mechanisms within solar flares; (2) the role of non-thermal particles; (3) plasma vortical structures and how they support wave propagation and energy supply to the upper layers of the solar atmosphere; (4) multi-scale (non-)linear MHD wave excitation and propagation. This session will provide a timely platform for joint discussions between world-leading experts, early career researchers and PhD students in solar observational analysis and numerical or analytical modelling.
With our Best Regards,
