  • Stealth Coronal Mass Ejections from Active Regions
    Draft version July 31, 2019 Typeset using LATEX twocolumn style in AASTeX62 Stealth Coronal Mass Ejections from Active Regions Jennifer O'Kane,1 Lucie Green,1 David M. Long,1 and Hamish Reid2 | 1Mullard Space Science Laboratory, UCL, Holmbury St Mary, Dorking, Surrey, RH5 6NT, UK 2SUPA School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, G12 8QQ, UK ABSTRACT Stealth coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are eruptions from the Sun that have no obvious low coro- nal signature. These CMEs are characteristically slower events, but can still be geoeffective and affect space weather at Earth. Therefore, understanding the science underpinning these eruptions will greatly improve our ability to detect and, eventually, forecast them. We present a study of two stealth CMEs analysed using advanced image processing techniques that reveal their faint signatures in observations from the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) imagers onboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), and Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) space- craft. The different viewpoints given by these spacecraft provide the opportunity to study each eruption from above and the side contemporaneously. For each event, EUV and magnetogram observations were combined to reveal the coronal structure that erupted. For one event, the observations indicate the presence of a magnetic flux rope before the CME's fast rise phase. We found that both events orig- inated in active regions and are likely to be sympathetic CMEs triggered by a nearby eruption. We discuss the physical processes that occurred in the time leading up to the onset of each stealth CME and conclude that these eruptions are part of the low-energy and velocity tail of a distribution of CME events, and are not a distinct phenomenon.

What has been the biggest changes in society? All of us will remember 2020 as the year our lives were turned upside down by Covid-19. It’s hard to overestimate the impact that had on not just our physical health and our daily lives, but also on our mental health, with rates of depression doubling during the first six months of lockdown. The Black Lives Matter movement also stands out, shining a light on the systemic issues facing Black people and people of colour around the world. And of course, climate change is ever-present. 2020 showed that we can all mobilise to change. What impact have these issues had on ITV and its Social Purpose? I think it shows that purpose-driven business is more important than ever before.

  • Final Release – 31.10.14
    Final release – 31.10.14 Scientists dispel the myth of the ‘X-Factor’ in favour of the ‘Hooked Factor’ – Music that stands the test of time • The Spice Girls and Lou Bega responsible for the nation’s catchiest songs • It takes Brit’s five seconds on average to recognise the UK’s biggest selling records • Double platinum selling record – Shakira’s ‘Hips don’t lie’ is one of the least recognisable songs, despite spending four weeks at number 1 in the UK A man with an excessively high waistband, three months on one of the nation’s biggest TV shows, and a public vote are usually thought to be the formula behind creating a hit. But scientists from the Museum of Science & Industry have spent the last year immersed in data provided by over 12,000 people in the Citizen Science experiment, delving into what really makes a catchy tune that stays with us – dispelling the ‘X-Factor’ in place of the ‘Hooked Factor’. The research conducted as part of the Museum’s #HookedOnMusic online experiment and the 2014 Manchester Science Festival, reveals the most memorable songs, pinpointing the time it takes to recognise them, and identifying the most recognisable fragment or hook within the hit. The #HookedOnMusic concept was originally designed by computational musicologist, Dr John Ashley Burgoyne and colleagues at University of Amsterdam and Utrecht University. The Museum's web based version of the experiment was designed to be engaging, accessible and fun, built by The Reading Room in close collaboration with MOSI, Dr John Ashley Burgoyne and Wellcome Trust Engagement Fellow, Dr Erinma Ochu, a citizen science expert based at The University of Manchester.

  • Glam Rock by Barney Hoskyns 1
    Glam Rock By Barney Hoskyns There's a new sensation A fabulous creation, A danceable solution To teenage revolution Roxy Music, 1973 1: All the Young Dudes: Dawn of the Teenage Rampage Glamour – a word first used in the 18th Century as a Scottish term connoting "magic" or "enchantment" – has always been a part of pop music. With his mascara and gold suits, Elvis Presley was pure glam. So was Little Richard, with his pencil moustache and towering pompadour hairstyle. The Rolling Stones of the mid-to- late Sixties, swathed in scarves and furs, were unquestionably glam; the group even dressed in drag to push their 1966 single "Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?" But it wasn't until 1971 that "glam" as a term became the buzzword for a new teenage subculture that was reacting to the messianic, we-can-change-the-world rhetoric of late Sixties rock. When T. Rex's Marc Bolan sprinkled glitter under his eyes for a TV taping of the group’s "Hot Love," it signaled a revolt into provocative style, an implicit rejection of the music to which stoned older siblings had swayed during the previous decade. "My brother’s back at home with his Beatles and his Stones," Mott the Hoople's Ian Hunter drawled on the anthemic David Bowie song "All the Young Dudes," "we never got it off on that revolution stuff..." As such, glam was a manifestation of pop's cyclical nature, its hedonism and surface show-business fizz offering a pointed contrast to the sometimes po-faced earnestness of the Woodstock era.
