El Solar in Granbury, TX is a research group associated with Stanford University's Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratories (HEPL) and the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC). They conduct observational and theoretical research on the physics of the Sun, focusing on projects such as COFFIES, HMI, and WSO, which aim to understand solar variability and magnetic field dynamics.
Their work involves studying solar activity through the analysis of velocity and magnetic data obtained from instruments like the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) on NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and the Wilcox Solar Observatory (WSO). With a wealth of educational resources available through the Stanford SOLAR Center, El Solar is dedicated to advancing our understanding of the Sun's interior and exterior fields and flows.
