Our main areas of research
- The investigation of solar-terrestrial processes in near-Earth space in order to deepen the understanding of complex coupling processes, especially in the thermosphere and ionosphere, and to derive information on possible effects of space weather and their avoidance.
- Physical modelling and prediction of solar-terrestrial coupling processes on the basis of energetic particle fluxes and radiation effects as well as corresponding propagation effects in near-Earth space.
- The development of methods for measuring, evaluating and predicting physical and technical variables that describe the effects of space weather on technical systems.
