About
I am professor in space physics working at the University of Helsinki. With my team I’m studying how giant plasma clouds from the Sun, coronal mass ejections, form and how they evolve and propagate in interplanetary space, and how they disturb the Earth and other planets of our solar system. We develop both advanced data-driven simulations and perform comprehensive data-analysis using a comprehensive set of satellite measurements.
