项目摘要

Our Consolidated Grant brings together research projects in solar physics, and the study of solar system bodies, undertaken by staff within the School of Mathematics and Physics at Queen's University Belfast. All of these projects fall within the remit of the Solar Studies (SS) and Planetary Studies (PL) sub-panels of the STFC Astronomy Grants Panel. The programme is diverse, with the solar physics projects involving observational and computational studies of the solar atmosphere from the chromosphere to the corona, with a particular emphasis on high-frequency imaging and spectroscopy of dynamic events, including wave generation, propagation and dissipation, the cancellation of magnetic elements and total solar eclipses. Projects on solar system bodies include observational studies of asteroids and the most primitive populations such as comets/trans-Neptunian objects - populations that retain key information on the origin and evolution of our planetary system. Our observational research employs an extensive set of both ground- and satellite-based solar and astronomical facilities, including the ROSA/HARDcam high-cadence solar imager, the Pan-STARRS Survey, ESO, ING and Gemini telescopes, and the SDO and Hinode satellites. In addition, we use the DiRAC supercomputing facility to support the computational aspects of our research programmes.

我们的合并赠款将太阳能物理学的研究项目和太阳系机构进行了研究，该研究由贝尔法斯特皇后大学的数学和物理学学校内的员工进行。所有这些项目都属于STFC天文学授予面板的太阳能研究（SS）和行星研究（PL）子面的职权范围。该程序是多种多样的，太阳能物理项目涉及从色球圈到电晕的太阳大气的观察和计算研究，特别着重于高频成像和动态事件的光谱，包括波浪产生，传播和耗散，磁元素的取消和太阳能eclipses。太阳系机构的项目包括对小行星的观察性研究和最原始的人群，例如彗星/跨纳普尼亚对象 - 保留有关行星系统起源和演变的关键信息的人群。我们的观察性研究采用了一套广泛的基于卫星和卫星的太阳能和天文设施，包括Rosa/Hardcam High-Adence太阳能成像仪，Pan-Starrs调查，ESO，ING和Gemini望远镜，以及SDO和SDO和Hinode卫星。此外，我们使用Dirac超级计算设施来支持我们的研究计划的计算方面。
