The third Solar MHD (UKUS 8) conference is following up on the successful first Solar MHD, Eastbourne, UK (2022), second Solar MHD, Tenerife, Spain ( 2024) and previous UKUS meetings.
The conference will take place in A Coruña, Spain, during the week of the 2026 solar eclipse. The following topics will be covered during the 2026 Solar MHD sessions:
Eclipse and coronal observations and their connection to simulations
Spectral synthesis and simulated data
Machine learning and big data in solar physics
Waves, turbulence, reconnection, and vortices
Multi-fluid and partially ionised plasma models
Enhanced MHD, hybrid models and next-generation MHD simulations
Multi-layer studies of solar magnetic features and solar magnetism through polarimetry
Interactive hands-on sessions will highlight modern numerical codes and tools. These sessions will provide practical training, foster collaboration, and serve as a platform for developing future research projects and funding proposals.
