Formed in 1954, the Institute for Scientific Research (ISR) is the largest sponsored research center at 艾可直播 College. Our highly skilled team of scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and research associates uses its expertise for theoretical and experimental studies that include space physics, space chemistry, solar-terrestrial research, space weather, and astrophysical studies. Our current projects include heavenly explorations鈥攆or example, observing the celestial sky to interpret the changes in infrared emissions in space鈥攁nd earthbound pursuits, such as defining the effects of solar storms on space-based communication and navigation systems. The ISR is currently the host site for the Secretariat Office of SCOSTEP, the Scientific Committee on Solar-Terrestrial Physics.
