... Magnetic Storms . ... Cosmic Rays . ... Energetic Particles . ... Solar fast Particles . We cannot observe the way the distant universe accelerates cosmic rays or produces energetic photons, but acceleration processes also occur on our Sun , though on a much more moderate scale. ... That is why such events are often missed by cosmic ray detectors near the equator, where the lowest energies are excluded by the Earth's magnetic field. ... Should we be concerned about solar energetic radiation? ...

The Space Telescope European Coordinating Facility and the Canadian Astronomy Data Centre have started a project aimed at augmenting the way an astronomer can query the Hubble Space Telescope science archive. Today the HST archive contains more than 70,000 WFPC2 exposures. ... This approach is valid if the archive was to serve only the primary targets; it is certainly not prone to be a discovery tool. ...

This year's two most powerful active areas, which passed across the solar disk at the beginning of May, 2009, are set to appear in the Sun's eastern sector in two days, on June 6th. ...

... This thread contains a step-by-step recipe to extract MOS spectra of a point-like source observed in Imaging mode and to create associated response matrices, starting from a calibrated, concatenated event list (either produced with emproc or available as PPS product; here it has the assumed file name MOS.fits ). ... The users should note that the SAS metatask xmmselect allows them to interactively define source and background regions (via ds9) and to run backscale on the fly. ...
