Amazing achievement for the @WaLSAteam to have an invited article published in Nature Reviews. Very proud to be part of this, and a massive thanks to @ShahinJ for leading this great piece of work 🙌
Waves are everywhere around us. From the sub-nano scale of atoms to the vastness of the universe, signals are superpositions of waves. This week's #Primer unveils the intricacies of wave #AnalysisTools. 📖👉go.nature.com/44dgNY7

Congratulations to the @WaLSAteam, brilliant working with @ShahinJ, @MarcoStangalini, @mac_aoidh and @sdtgrant to make this happen
The @WaLSAteam have just published a 170 page review article in @livrev_lrsp! If you want to learn about waves in the lower solar atmosphere, wave analysis techniques & the current state-of-the-art in the field, then check out: Walsa.team/LRSP 📹youtu.be/qYWa6I-83MI

Thanks to @egallagherQUB for helping to get this story released. Great to see QUB leading the way with high-impact work! #LoveQUB @QUBMathsPhys @AstroQUB @RobertMBowman @sdtgrant xitter.cf/QUBelfast/status/97103…
It is more than 70 years since it was first predicted that magnetic waves are responsible for heating the sun. Now scientists from @QUBMathsPhys have helped unlock the mystery: ow.ly/vLpi30iMASf #AlfvénWaves #LoveQUB
