astrophysics group is performing
research that plays an essential role in
understanding the observed activity of
our Sun and different stars, the
existence of Earth-like planets outside
the solar system, and the evolution and
fate of the Universe. Specific topics of
current studies are: |
| |
|
Theoretical studies of stellar activity
in late-type stars, including the Sun |
|
Ground-based and space-based observations of
solar-type stars, evolved stars and magnetic white
dwarfs |
|
Extra-solar terrestrial planets, stellar
habitable zones and astrobiology
|
| Planning of the future NASA Mission
"Stellar Imager" |
| The
origin of dark energy and dark matter |
|
Development of planetarium shows, among
