Dr. Bin Chen

Pleased to share another of our latest works on this beautiful solar flare (see our earlier paper ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2020ApJ...… on the accompanying eruption). Here we focus on its "central engine". @NJIT story: news.njit.edu/researchers-of…. @CenterForAstro story: cfa.harvard.edu/news/2020-15

[Milestone] OVROLWA solar obs produces over 100 million images of the Sun! Realtime pipeline generating 144 fine-channel images every 20 seconds to track solar bursts, flares, and CMEs. #SolarPhysics #SpaceWeather #OVROLWA #RadioAstronomy #Heliophysics #OpenData #NJIT

@markcheung @AAS_Office Thank you very much!

Congrats to @BinChenNJIT on being awarded the @AAS_Office #SolarPhysics Division Karen Harvey Prize! So many insightful results about solar flares have come from you and your team in recent years. aas.org/posts/news/202…

UH/IfA is hiring! We are looking for a tenure-track faculty at the assistant level with focus on solar/helio. The position is based on Maui. Deadline is Dec 31. DM me if you have any question! jobregister.aas.org/ad/7ff8df97

@MihoJnvr We have some VLA C band (4-8 GHz) solar flare observations coming up with an ultra-fast 20-millisecond time resolution. This week we are doing tests to enable this mode. Kindly let me know the details of your SolO campaign. We will try our best to coordinate.

@Magnetodawn Cute. Sorry I have not been checking twitter - I have been observing/testing in Socorro with the Jansky Very Large Array this week.

Also, I very much like the curvature of this cup-like feature, as it forms and accelerates @BinChenNJIT might like this particular video, I think

Jorge @JAL495588 just posted this nice reprocessed video of a solar filament eruption of April 19th, 2022. Turn up screen brightness, to see good details of prominence eruption CME shock acceleration, that might otherwise go missed.

📡🌞📻 EOVSA 👇 Extended Owens Valley Solar Array has captured a solar microwave emission ~ 20:17 UT Sept 22 Corresponds to C1.77 GOES-16/17 x-ray flare bounces peaked @ 20:20 UT Sep 22 ovsa.njit.edu/status.php# @BinChenNJIT @EOVSANJIT @MorganCatha

@Magnetodawn @EOVSANJIT @MorganCatha @gelumnita @inosato78 @SijieYu1203 This is probably radio frequency interference (RFI).

Beautiful short-duration microwave burst from today’s M flare!

@hazbain @starfleetjames Indeed! Wow!

#Helio2023 (#Helio2024? we gotta pick a #) @theNASEM Decadal Report is underway, shortly on the heels of Planetary's and #Astro2020. White papers are due tomorrow, and you can tell based on the skyrocketing number of submissions

@hazbain @starfleetjames I believe so!

@hazbain @starfleetjames Same here!

SOLAR MICROWAVE EMISSION alert SW quad detected EOVSA impulsive M4.87 GOES x-ray flare peak @ 21:39 UT Jul 17 @BinChenNJIT @EOVSANJIT @MorganCatha @markcheung @halocme @erikapal @TamithaSkov @type2emission @helios_solaris @CapeorionAndrew @g7izu @GoroDaisuki09 @JAL495588

The sun can launch flares that reach Earth, 93M miles away, in under an hour. @NJIT astronomers found out why, identifying the location of a near-light speed particle accelerator region inside a solar flare. bit.ly/3nQYjGw #NSFfunded 📷: S. Yu, NJIT/CSTR; NOAA/SUVI

@peijin94 Is there a paper/write up on the instrument and the specifics?

The Daocheng Solar Radio Telescope (DSRT) building in progress, it is a dedicated instrument to monintor the Sun, a ring dish array, a few dishes is already mounted and tested, the data is amazing, looking furward the full set of dish finished, open up its eye to look at the Sun

SOLAR MICROWAVE EMISSION aaand...EOVSA catches another impulsive broadband needle-like solar microwave emission, @ 20:36 UT Jun 16! 📡🌞 ovsa.njit.edu/status.php# @BinChenNJIT @EOVSANJIT @MorganCatha

@Concretius Congratulations!

@Magnetodawn @EOVSANJIT Thank you for bringing it to my attention! I agree it could be something interesting. But it could also be some spurious attenuation changes in the raw cross-correlation data. We can look at the calibrated data to make sure.

Hey @BinChenNJIT , this looks interesting on @EOVSANJIT solar microwave spectrograph quicklook display right now. Look between ~ 23:32 - 23:36 UT-ish.

New Nature paper by Fleishman et al unravels the efficient acceleration region for high-energy electrons in a large solar flare, using microwave imaging spectroscopy data taken by yours truly ⁦@NJIT⁩ ⁦@CSLANJIT⁩ #NSF_funded news.njit.edu/researchers-un…
