How Sun Affects Our Technology
Date: April 08, 2004
Location: off Hollister near airport administration in Goleta)
"How Sun Affects Our Technology" SEC Luncheon. While sunspots have been studied for centuries, only recently have we begun to understand the impact of the sun's high-energy radiation. Monitoring satellites and improved modeling have given us more information about the solar processes that create disturbances on Earth. While there is an 11-year sunspot cycle, not all important solar events coincide with the solar sunspot maximum. The talk will give examples of how technological systems can be interrupted by solar weather. See http://www.scieng.org
