Assistant Professor Eric Edlund’s intermediate physics laboratory course is all about giving students opportunities to get hands-on experience in precise experimental measurement. That’s been tough to ...

NASA is preparing to launch PUNCH (Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere), a groundbreaking mission that will use ...

A new study led by the University of Hawai’i (UH) at M?noa has helped refine understanding of the amount of hydrogen, helium and other elements present in violent outbursts from the Sun, and other ...

A spacecraft now moves through a region once thought unreachable, sampling the thin outer atmosphere of the Sun at distances ...

XRISM’s observations of GX13+1 revealed a slow, fog-like wind instead of the expected high-speed blast, challenging existing models of radiation-driven outflows. The discovery hints that temperature ...

We can’t see the wind, but we can learn about it by observing things that are being blown about. And by studying changes in a comet’s bright tail of gas and ions, scientists are on the trail to ...

The future of the wind industry is looking brighter thanks to a decades-old laser technology. Jon Cartwright explains how laser anemometry could cut the cost of wind energy and boost its share of the ...
