Poštovane kolege,
COSPAR ( Committee on Space Research) organizuje workshop o analizi 
satelitskih podataka vezanih za sunčevu aktivnosti i prvenstveno je 
namenjena mladim istraživačima i studentima. Potrebne informacije, kao i 
link možete naći u prvom pozivu priloženom ispod. Rok za prijavu je 26. 
maj.

Srdačno,
Nikola Veselinović

COSPAR Capacity-Building Workshop

Coronal and Interplanetary Shocks: Analysis of SOHO, STEREO, SDO, Wind, 
and ground-based radio data

Institute of Engineering Physics, Samarkand State University, Uzbekistan

August 19 - 30, 2024



First Announcement

The main objective of the COSPAR Capacity-Building Workshops is to 
encourage the scientific use of space data by scientists in developing 
countries. The Workshops tap into the large number of extensive archives 
of data from past and current space missions and the online analysis 
software tools via the internet. Thus, a typical workshop aims to 
provide a highly practical training in the use of one or more of these 
data archives.

In line with this objective, a two-week COSPAR capacity building 
workshop will introduce data analysis of space-based white-light 
coronagraph observations and radio spectral and imaging observations 
from space and ground to study shocks driven by coronal mass ejections 
(CMEs). In particular, the wealth of data accumulated at the CDAW Data 
Center at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center from the ESA/NASA Solar and 
Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) mission, NASA’s Solar Terrestrial 
Relations Observatory (STEREO), NASA’s Wind and Advanced Composition 
Explorer (ACE) missions will be used. Data on type II radio bursts, 
which are signatures of shocks near the Sun, are obtained from the 
e-CALLISTO network and the Radio Solar Telescope Network around the 
globe will be used for the study. Context information from NOAA’s GOES 
mission and NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) missions will be 
used.

This workshop will enable scientists and students in developing 
countries where the e-CALLISTO instruments are deployed to use their 
data in conjunction with space data to study Earth-affecting solar 
transient phenomena. In particular, scientists from Uzbekistan, 
Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Armenia 
will be targeted as participants. After the workshop, the participants 
will be able to perform correlative data analysis on CMEs and shocks, 
thus contributing to the progress of this important field in Sun-Earth 
connection.

The workshop will consist of a series of introductory lectures on the 
Sun, Solar Corona, Interplanetary medium, Solar Eruptions, Shocks, and 
Solar Radio Bursts. Python software and web-based tools will be 
introduced for data analysis. Several projects will be undertaken by 
teams consisting of lecturers and students that may lead to publications 
in scientific journals. The participants will also have the opportunity 
to apply for COSPAR fellowships to work with the lecturers after the 
workshop. Complete details of the workshop including application forms 
can be found in the workshop web site:

Scientific Organizing Committee: Nat Gopalswamy (USA, Chair), Christian 
Monstein, (Switzerland), Nandita Srivastava (India), Pertti Mäkelä 
(USA), Seiji Yashiro (USA).

Local Organizing Committee: Hakim Hushvaktov, Akhmad Absanov, Zavkiddin 
Mirtoshev, Rashid Eshburiev (SamSU, Uzbekistan).
