Save the Date: NASA EZIE Mission Science Workshop!



The team behind the NASA Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) mission is excited to announce the first science workshop, scheduled to take place on September 18-19, 2023 at Johns Hopkins University, Applied Physics Laboratory.



This workshop will provide a platform to delve into the intriguing topics of the structure and dynamics of the substorm current wedge, auroral electrojet, equatorial electrojet, 2D maps of the auroral electrojet, ability to separate spatial and temporal variations, and precise mesospheric neutral wind.



It presents a wonderful opportunity to showcase your research to NASA scientists and experts from around the world.



As EZIE is set to launch in late 2024 or early 2025, this workshop serves as a pre-launch invitation to the science community. By engaging in an open forum format, we aim to ensure that the key areas of EZIE are thoroughly discussed and explored.



If you are interested in presenting your work at the workshop, please submit your title no later than August 15.



We are thrilled to announce that the workshop will be a hybrid event, combining in-person and virtual participation, allowing for broader engagement. Best of all, there is no registration fee associated with attending the workshop.



Mark your calendars and prepare to be a part of this exciting scientific exchange at the NASA EZIE Mission Science Workshop. Further details please visit the EZIE Science Workshop Webpage (https://ezie.jhuapl.edu/science-workshops/Agenda/index.php?id=1)

About EZIE Mission:
EZIE is an innovative multi-satellite mission that images the magnetic fingerprint of intense electrical currents flowing in the upper layers of Earth’s atmosphere. EZIE will image the magnetic signature of the ionospheric electrojets using the Zeeman splitting of the O2 thermal emissions originating from around 80km altitude.  EZIE will reveal the structure and evolution of electrojets – a critical component of the vast electrical current system coupling the magnetosphere to the ionosphere and atmosphere.

You are welcome,
Jesper Gjerloev, Sam Yee, Nelli Mosavi
