- This $385,959 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to improve understanding of the Sun's corona, the hot outer layer of the solar atmosphere, through the analysis of data from five total solar eclipses occurring between 2015 and 2024. Researchers at the Wentworth Institute of Technology will analyze visible and near-infrared imaging data of the corona to study its electron temperature, density, and magnetic field structure. This will...
