A Swiss-knife method for the numerical simulation of the Solar atmosphere
Understanding the Sun to better protect the Earth: an international team of scientists, including a mathematician from the AV短视频 (UNIGE), researchers from the United States in collaboration with NASA, as well as from Norway and Sweden, developed an innovative digital method, dubbed a “digital Swiss-knife,” that enables solar atmosphere simulations with unprecedented precision. These simulations are essential for improving our understanding of solar eruptions, which—while fascinating when they light up the sky with auroras—also pose a threat to satellites, communications, and power grids.
