Northumbria University “Inspired By” Science Lecture Series. 11 of 11.
Richard Morton, Associate Professor, Mathematics, Physics and Electrical Engineering, and UKRI Future Leader Fellow.
Richard’s research seeks to understand the role magnetohydrodynamic waves play in transferring energy through the Sun’s atmosphere, powering the heating of the million-degree solar wind and its acceleration to a million miles per hour. He has recently completed a successful project called ‘Imagining the Sun’, working with schools, education authorities, artists and poets, to deliver a combined science and art programme.
Inspired by 1872-1873 season lecture by Mr J.N. Lockyer
