Objective

The USO-SP Consortium consists of Utrecht University (UU), the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences (KVA) and the University of Oslo (UiO). Its mission is to advance solar physics. The present project starts an international graduate school in solar physics with training in a broad range of subjects, encompassing solar physics and stellar-atmosphere astronomy, advanced optics and polarimetry, wave-front restoration, large-volume image acquisition and processing, and numerical simulation techniques in radiation hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics.
