Astrophysikerin Astrid Veronig stillt den „Wissensdurst“ über das Wetter im Weltraum

Wenn das Weltraumwetter Kapriolen schlägt, dann hat das mitunter auch Folgen auf der Erde. Explosionen auf der Sonne schleudern geladene Teilchen manchmal bis in die Atmosphäre des Blauen Planeten. Dort können sie Satelliten stören, den Flugverkehr behindern und sogar Stromausfälle auf der Erde verursachen. In einer weiteren Ausgabe von „Wissensdurst – die Wissenschaftsviertelstunde im Pub“ berichtet Assoz.-Prof. Dr. Astrid Veronig, Astrophysikerin an der Uni Graz, mehr über die stürmische Sonne und deren Auswirkungen auf unseren Planeten.

Astrid Veronig forscht und lehrt am Institut für Physik der Karl-Franzens-Universität und leitet das Observatorium Kanzelhöhe für Sonnen- und Umweltforschung, das zu den führenden Einrichtungen der europäischen Astrophysik zählt. In ihren Forschungsarbeiten beschäftigt sich Veronig schwerpunktmäßig mit der Physik von Sonneneruptionen und deren Folgen auf das Weltraumwetter. Internationale Forschungsaufenthalte führten sie unter anderem an das Goddard Space Flight Center der NASA.

Stürmische Sonne: „Wissensdurst“ mit Astrid Veronig
WANN: Dienstag, 14. Jänner 2014, 20 Uhr
WO: Brot & Spiele, Mariahilferstraße 17

Der Eintritt ist frei, keine Anmeldung erforderlich.

Die Veranstaltungsreihe „Wissensdurst – die Wissenschaftsviertelstunde im Pub“ ist Teil der 7. fakultät, des Zentrums für Gesellschaft, Wissen und Kommunikation an der Uni Graz. Das Projekt, von Dr. Wolfram Steurer initiiert, wird von den Studierenden Christian Fercher und Lukas Grumet geleitet.

Die Veranstaltung wird von der Bank Austria unterstützt.
