kcho@seti.orgKyuhyoun Cho is a research scientist at the SETI Institute and Lockheed Martin Solar and Astrophysics, specializing in solar physics. His research focuses on understanding phenomena such as magnetohydrodynamic waves and small-scale magnetic reconnections in the solar chromosphere, utilizing high-resolution imaging and spectrographic observations from both ground-based telescopes (like the Swedish Solar Telescope and Goode Solar Telescope) and space-based instruments (such as the Interface Region Imaging Spectrometer and Solar Dynamics Observatory). Additionally, he is involved in developing advanced solar observation projects like the COronal Diagnostic EXperiment (CODEX) and the MUlti-slit Solar Explorer (MUSE), which aim to provide deeper insights into solar dynamics, including the heating of the solar atmosphere, the behavior of solar winds, and the intricate interactions between the Sun's magnetic fields and plasma.
