PhD in Data Sciences And Artificial Intelligence

Heliophysics is in its golden age, with an unprecedented number of satellites providing observations of unparalleled quality, either (remotely) of the Sun or (in-situ) of the solar wind. The project will investigate plasma and dynamical properties using the complementarities of multi-spacecraft observations. The objective is to reveal phenomena and unravel the physics governing key regions of our Sun-Earth system in the chain of space weather events that can affect our radiation environment, our communication systems and our climate. The PhD student will join the Centre for Geophysical and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics and will directly benefit from links with the Institute for Data Sciences and Artificial Intelligence (IDSAI), the Astrophysics cluster and the nearby Met Office space weather activities. This PhD project will equip the student with skills suited to address future science with Solar Orbiter. Location: Exeter, United Kingdom.
