DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Christian Vocks (Leibniz-Institut für Astrophysik P
 otsdam (AIP))\nThe phenomena of the active Sun\, like flares and coronal m
 ass ejections (CMEs)\, have significant influence on Earth and our technic
 al civilization. This is usually referred to as "Space Weather". Flares an
 d CMEs accelerate electrons and ions to high energies. These particles are
  studied both remotely by ground- and space-based telescopes\, and in situ
  by spacecraft. Energetic electrons emit radio waves as they move through 
 the coronal plasma. This plasma emission is observed by radio telescopes\,
  e.g. LOFAR. Since the frequency decreases with plasma density higher in t
 he solar atmosphere\, and radio waves below 10 MHz cannot pass Earth's ion
 osphere\, spacecraft are needed to continue observations further into inte
 rplanetary space. They are also required for measuring energetic particles
  and observations of X-ray emission in the corona. Therefore\, combining L
 OFAR and spacecraft data provides new insights into the physical processes
  in the region where the solar corona turns into the solar wind. Parker So
 lar Probe (PSP) and Solar Orbiter are two missions currently exploring the
  inner heliosphere. I'll present LOFAR observing campaigns during PSP and 
 Solar Orbiter perihelia\, that cover the Sun and it's surroundings by maki
 ng use of LOFAR's capability of running multiple observing modes in parall
 el\, and show how they connect the corona with the heliosphere.\n\nhttps:/
