Title: Observations and Modeling of Solar Coronal Waves
speaker: Prof. Pengfei Chen (NJU)
Time: 3 PM, Mar. 30th (Thursday)
Abstract: Coronal waves, which are called solar tsunami by the news media, are a large-scale wavelike phenomenon propagating across the major part of the Sun. Debates were continued regarding their driver and their nature. Several mechanisms have been proposed during the past 18 years. In this talk, I will introduce how the community is getting closer to reaching a consensus on the nature of coronal waves.
