Work on the development of the solar flare detection method.Prepare a toy dataset containing events mentioned in the paper by Wang and Richardson.Attempt to download and read data (Voyager, ACE, IMP-8) from NASA OMNIWeb.Review the paper by Wang and Richardson.For Voyager 1, there are data only until 1980, for Voyager 2, there are data at least until 2018. Typically the data is under the category related to plasma. The variable of interest should be the “Flow Speed”. But there are also other sources available.
NASA OMNIWEB PLUS
All could be taken from NASA OMNIWeb Plus ( ). Input data are Voyager (1 and 2) data, IMP-8 and/or ACE data. These events could be used by students for the development of their own detection method. The aforementioned paper by Wang and Richardson documents multiple solar flare events in the Voyager data. The final analysis can be presented as one or more Jupyter notebooks or as a simple document briefly describing the realized experiments and showing plots of the analyzed data. The analyzed slices of the data should also be visualized in the final analysis. The detection should be applied to both dataset, and then students should attempt to correlate the two.
Students should attempt to develop an approach that would detect a solar flare in the data. The result of the work should be an analysis of several slides of the Voyagers’ and IMP-8’s dataset, attempting to show the correlation between the two. The main inspiration for this project is a paper by Wang and Richardson ( ). The task is to identify a solar flare inside the Voyager data, which realizes its measurements several AUs (astronomical units) from the Sun, and then identify the identical solar flare in data that 1AU from the Sun. From the viewpoint of data analysis techniques, the project’s main task is to correlate two-time series and maximize the correlation via shifting the offset of one time series to maximize its correlation the other. This project aims to give students an opportunity to experiment with cosmic ray counts data, especially the unique measurements of the Voyager missions.
