Seminars at MPS

Interested visitors are very welcome to join in all seminars held and talks given at the MPS. The presentations are mainly given in English. More detailed information can be found at the seminars' pages. Invited guest scientists of other institutes report on the successes and results of their research in institute seminars and colloquia. PhD students of the International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) present their work in S3 seminars. In the Seminars about Planets and Comets, as well as in the Seminars about the Sun and sunlike Stars, the scientists of the respective departments report on the latest results and progress made in their projects and introduce new missions. All seminars are concluded with a short discussion or a questions-and-answers sessions.

ESPOS: Wind Predict: Modeling the solar corona and its EUV emission (Barbara Perri)

ESPOS
With the increase of space EUV observations (SoHO, SDO, Solar Orbiter and soon the Vigil mission), this diagnostic has become an essential tool to bridge the gap between models and our current understanding of coronal phenomena. We will present a review of the recent studies using the Wind Predict model and its different versions, which is a 3-dimension magnetohydrodynamic code to model the solar chromosphere, corona and the expansion of the solar wind. We will in particular discuss the influence of observations on the simulation results (with the question of spatial resolution, as well as the inclusion of far-side active regions observed by Solar Orbiter), and vice-versa how the generation of synthetic data can help us improve our simulations (with the implementation of a feedback loop based on automated coronal hole detection). Finally, we will present the next developments foreseen for the Wind Predict code. [more]
