The main factors governing the variability patterns of high-energy electron flux in the outer radiation belt are well established in the literature and are modulated by external physical mechanisms. These correspond to different solar wind structures, such as Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejections (ICMEs) and High-Speed Solar Wind Streams (HSSs). These processes are associated with low-energy...

In the evolving landscape of 21st-century space science, forecasting space weather events such as solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are crucial yet challenging. Solar flares are intense bursts of radiation caused by the release of magnetic energy in active regions and are often accompanied by CMEs. These events can significantly impact Earth’s space environment, causing...

In this study, we applied machine learning techniques to perform an unsupervised clustering of THEMIS satellite orbits to detect magnetosheath crossings. We used the DBSCAN algorithm to analyze crossings within a range of less than 40 Earth radii, focusing on data from the THEMIS-B (THB) and THEMIS-C (THC) spacecraft during 2008 and 2009. These spacecraft were selected due to their eccentric...

95. A CNN Classifier for Hidden Solar Flares in Historical UV Spectroscopic Plates From Skylab SO82BTiago Mendes Ferrer (@Mackenzie), Paulo Simões (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie)8/19/26, 5:10 PM
The NRL SO82B spectrograph on board of Skylab captured more than 6,000 far-ultraviolet photographic exposures of the Sun between 1973 and 1974. UV flare spectra are still rare with only a few reported during the mission. This work presents a supervised binary image classifier based on a ResNet-18 convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify uncatalogued flares in the SO82B data. The CNN was...

Remote sensing of the Sun and the inner heliosphere remains the primary observational approach for investigating the physical mechanisms underlying the Sun’s short-term variability and its associated space weather phenomena. Given the significant societal and economic implications of space weather, a growing number of current and planned space- and ground-based observatories are dedicated to...

This work presents a study on optical neural network implementations aimed at contributing to adaptive optics applications for ground-based telescopes. The tests and proposals focus on solar telescopes. The approach offers processing-time advantages, as the systems involve optical stages for image interpretation that operate at the speed of light. Optical systems are proposed to assist in...

The increasing reliance on Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) components for small satellite propulsion and suborbital platforms, such as the Brazilian Suborbital Microgravity Platform (PSM), introduces significant vulnerabilities to space weather phenomena. This study investigates the intersection between heliophysics data and the operational reliability of electrospray propulsion systems and...

Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental physical process that occurs in magnetized plasmas and serves as an efficient mechanism for accelerating charged particles by converting magnetic energy into kinetic and thermal energy. In the interaction between the solar wind and Earth's magnetosphere, particularly during periods of southward interplanetary magnetic field orientation (Bz < 0), magnetic...

Space exploration and space-based observations increasingly rely on miniaturized sensors capable of operating under stringent constraints on mass, volume, power consumption, and performance. Microfabrication provides a versatile technological platform for addressing these requirements by enabling the development of thermal, optical, mechanical, and particle sensors using silicon, compound...

Perovskite solar cells have emerged as one of the most promising next-generation photovoltaic technologies, reaching efficiencies comparable to established thin-film and silicon-based devices while offering low-temperature processing, lightweight architectures, and tunable optoelectronic properties. These features make them especially attractive for space photovoltaic applications, where high...

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are significant drivers of space weather, and accurately predicting their propagation speed is crucial for mitigating their impact on Earth’s environment. In this study, we leverage machine learning techniques to model and predict CME speed at 20R utilizing data from the Coordinated Data Analysis Workshop catalog. We considered data from Solar Cycles 23 and 24,...

This work aims to identify and characterize the critical Alfvén surface, which marks the boundary of the solar corona. Within this surface, the solar plasma is in a sub-Alfvénic regime, whereas beyond it, the solar wind becomes super-Alfvénic. The study presents theoretical foundations on the solar structure, plasma characteristics and Alfvén waves in the solar corona. The analysis was...

Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are critical drivers of space weather, requiring precise kinematic and morphological characterization to predict their geoeffectiveness. We previously demonstrated that fine-tuning the deep neural model Mask R-CNN on synthetic CME images, generated via Graduated Cylindrical Shell (GCS) shapes and raytracing, allows the automated segmentation of CME outer envelopes...

The Earth’s radiation belts host electron populations that frequently deviate from thermodynamic equilibrium, exhibiting pronounced suprathermal tails and anisotropies driven by wave–particle interactions. Accurately representing these non-Maxwellian features is essential for understanding acceleration processes and improving predictive capabilities. In this work, we introduce an adaptive...

Equatorial and low-latitude Spread-F (SF) can severely affect radio communication and navigation systems, making timely identification and prediction important for space weather monitoring and operations. Although artificial intelligence (AI) has shown strong potential for automating ionogram analysis, broader progress has been limited by the lack of large-scale, well-annotated, and publicly...

In this talk I will review recent progress and the remaining challenges in both modelling and analysing observed magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves in the lower solar atmosphere. To model waves in sunspot umbrae, we have had to go beyond the standard cylindrical flux tube model due to the irregular shapes of the MHD waveguides. For sunspots the umbra/penumbra boundary shape is reasonably static...
