[1] The papers submitted to the special issue of "Sun and Geosphere"

This note is to inform you that the peer-review of papers submitted to the special issue of Sun and Geosphere on the ISWI/ICTP workshop in May last year in Trieste, Italy has been completed. About half of the participants who expressed interest in publishing their research presented at the workshop actually submitted manuscripts. In addition to the workshop participants, members of the scientific community in general were given the opportunity to submit papers. After the rejection/withdrawal of some papers, the guest editors have accepted 10 papers (list appended). I am happy to note that about half of the papers are by student participants, including an undergraduate student. Congratulations!
