Technical Readiness of MeerKAT for Solar Observations and Initial Science Results by D. Kansabanik et al.

March 31, 2026

Solar radio emissions offer unique diagnostic insights into the solar corona. However, their dynamic and multiscale nature, along with variations spanning several orders of magnitude in intensity, pose significant observational challenges. To date, at gigahertz frequencies, MeerKAT (Jonas & MeerKAT Team 2016) stands out globally for its intrinsic ability to produce high-fidelity, spectroscopic snapshot images of the Sun. This is enabled primarily by its dense core, high sensitivity, and broad […]

Non-thermal energy release in the post-impulsive phase of the May 9, 2021 event by M. Zhang et al.

March 17, 2026

The acceleration of charged particles is an ubiquitous phenomenon in solar flares. Non-thermal electrons are especially probed by their hard X-ray (HXR) and radio emissions. Most flare analyses concern the impulsive flare phase, where the X-ray signatures are the most intense (i.e., the time range between the start and peak time of the soft X-ray burst).The post-impulsive phase of eruptive flares with its signatures of destabilization and the eruption of […]

Classification of Type II and Type III Solar Radio Bursts Using Transfer Learning by H. le Roux et al.

March 3, 2026

Solar radio bursts (SRBs) are some of the most interesting signatures of solar activity. Their correlation with large solar eruptions and well-documented disruption to technological infrastructure especially highlights their relevance (Temmer 2021; Li et al. 2024; Liang et al. 2024). As the volume of radio data grows, it becomes increasingly important to ensure that there are reliable automated methods for the classification of SRBs, especially if these methods can contribute […]
