CAREER: Bridging Modern Computational Capabilities and Observations of Solar Magnetic Fields with Expanding Solar Physics Education at the University of Hawaii

PI计划将最新的理论和现代计算能力与太阳可见表面的先进磁观测相结合，以提高目前对日冕磁场、日冕物质抛射（cme）和其他太阳活动表现的认识。他计划与夏威夷大学天文研究所（IfA）现有的太阳观测研究项目协调一个复杂的建模工作。PI还描述了一个项目，旨在教育科学教师和学生关于太阳、地球及其相互作用的知识，并向更广泛的社区提供有效的宣传，以促进太阳物理知识的普及。PI概述了一个为期五年的研究计划，重点关注太阳和日球层物理的基本主题，包括研究日冕磁场的稳定性和准稳态特性，太阳风和IMF的结构和演变，cme的主要原因及其与周围太阳风的相互作用，以及cme驱动的冲击产生的sep及其通过日球层的运输。PI希望这些努力将使他能够以紧密耦合的方式处理基础物理，这可能会导致太阳物理研究的重大突破。由于这些主题是相互关联的，因此PI的目标是将建模和观测工作协同起来，以便累积的科学成果将大于个人努力的总和。PI计划在每一个专题研究中将理论和数值模拟与相关观测联系起来，以便在太阳物理界进行具有广泛影响的全面研究。作者试图吸引当地和全国的太阳物理学学生，并将他们整合到这些研究活动中。他计划在IfA开设一门新的太阳能和恒星磁学研究生课程。PI的愿景包括建立一个太阳物理暑期学校，提供一名外国本科生与IfA的REU（本科生研究经验）学生合作，在IfA设立太阳物理研究生和博士后研究助理奖学金，通过讲座和研讨会提供公众宣传，并在美国非博士学位授予学院展示这些扩大的IfA太阳能研究和教育项目。

The PI plans to combine recent theories and modern computational capabilities with advanced magnetic observations at the Sun's visible surface to improve present knowledge of the coronal magnetic field, coronal mass ejections (CMEs), and other manifestations of solar activity. He plans to coordinate a sophisticated modeling effort with existing observational solar research programs at the Institute for Astronomy (IfA) at the University of Hawaii. The PI also describes a program to educate science teachers and students about the Sun, the Earth, and their interactions, as well as provide effective outreach to the wider community, in order to promote solar physics literacy. The PI outlines a five-year research program focused on fundamental topics of solar and heliospheric physics, including the study of the stability and quasi-steady state properties of the coronal magnetic field, structure and evolution of the solar wind and IMF, leading causes of CMEs and their interaction with the ambient solar wind, and production of SEPs at CME-driven shocks and their transport through the heliosphere. The PI expects that these efforts will enable him to treat the underlying physics in a tightly-coupled manner, which may lead to major breakthroughs in solar physics research. Because these topics are interrelated, the PI's goal is to synergize modeling and observational efforts so that the cumulative scientific outcome will be greater than the sum of the individual efforts. The PI intends to bridge theory and numerical modeling with relevant observations in each topical investigation, to enable a comprehensive investigation with broad impact in the solar physics community.The author seeks to attract students in solar physics both locally and nationally, and integrate them into these research activities. He plans to develop a new graduate course in Solar and Stellar Magnetism at the IfA. The PI's vision includes establishing a summer school in solar physics, providing a foreign undergraduate to collaborate with REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) students at the IfA, creating graduate and postdoctoral research assistantships in solar physics at the IfA, providing public outreach through talks and seminars, and presenting these expanded IfA solar research and educational programs at non-PhD-granting colleges across the US.
