Center for Space Science
We focus on the role of rotating convection and large-scale flows in the generation and maintenance of magnetic fields in the Sun and stars.

The Center is an alliance of faculty and scholars actively involved in research in astronomy, astrophysics, planetary, and particle physics. The goal will be to work toward providing answers to a series of fundamental questions related to the composition and evolution of our universe.
