EMISSA – Exploring Millimeter Indicators of Solar-Stellar Activity

The aim of the EMISSA project is to use data obtained with the Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA) in the Chilean Andes for a re-evaluation of the activity of stars by means of a comparative solar-stellar study with the Sun serving as a fundamental reference.

The post-processing of the data from ALMA, which is a technological leap forward and thus promises new insights, is computational challenging. Also, the project employs state-of the art 3D numerical simulations of the outer layers of the Sun and other stars and corresponding simulated observations for supporting the interpretation of the ALMA data.
