Istituto ricerche solari Aldo e Cele Daccò (IRSOL) carries out fundamental research in solar physics, with a focus on solar magnetism. The institute's mission is to understand solar magnetic phenomena to a detail that is needed for forecasting solar activity evolution and its effects on the space weather and terrestrial climate. This is achieved by combining the unique strengths of IRSOL in high-precision solar spectropolarimetry with advanced approaches in theoretical and numerical modelling, computational and data science, and magnetohydrodynamic simulations. IRSOL's 45 cm telescope, the largest ground-based solar optical telescope in Switzerland, is equipped with the world-leading solar imaging polarimeter ZIMPOL. This unique observational facility has been recognized as an infrastructure of national and international importance.
Institute's scientific activities are organized in four research groups, each being led by a senior scientist:
1. Theoretical modelling of polarised radiation in the solar atmosphere, Dr. Luca Belluzzi.
2. Solar Magnetism and Space Weather, Prof. Svetlana Berdyugina.
3. Observations and Instrumentation, Dr. Renzo Ramelli.
4. MHD simulations of the solar and stellar atmospheres, Dr. Oskar Steiner.
