Description
A magnetic field modifies the properties of waves in a complex way. Significant advances have been made recently in our understanding of the physics of sunspot waves with the help of high-resolution observations, analytical theories, as well as numerical simulations. We review the current ideas in the field, providing the most coherent picture of sunspot oscillations as by present understanding.

Solar and Stellar Magnetism
Magnetic fields are at the base of star formation and stellar structure and evolution. When stars are born, magnetic fields brake the rotation during the collapse of the mollecular cloud. In the end of the life of a star, magnetic fields can play a key role in the form of the strong winds that lead to the last stages of stellar evolution. During

    Echo-free quality factor of a multilayer axion haloscope
    We report a methodology to determine the quality factor ( Q) of wavy dark matter detectors equipped with multilayered resonators, including Fabry-Pérot interferometers and the so-called dielectric haloscope. An anechoic chamber enables the observation of the resonance frequency and its amplitude for an unlimited series of layers for the first time

    Magnetic diffusion in solar atmosphere produces measurable electric fields
    The efficient release of magnetic energy in astrophysical plasmas, such as during solar flares, can in principle be achieved through magnetic diffusion, at a rate determined by the associated electric field. However, attempts at measuring electric fields in the solar atmosphere are scarce, and none exist for sites where the magnetic energy is

    Perspectives on the physics of late-type stars from beyond low earth orbit, the moon and mars
    With the new discoveries enabled thanks to the recent space missions, stellar physics is going through a revolution. However, these discoveries opened the door to many new questions that require more observations. The European Space Agency's Human and Robotic Exploration program provides an excellent opportunity to push forward the limits of our
