What Does SWAN Stand For?
SWAN stands for Solar Wind Anisotropy Experiment
The Solar Wind Anisotropy Experiment (SWAN) is a scientific investigation designed to study the behavior and characteristics of solar wind as it interacts with the interstellar medium. By analyzing the anisotropic properties of solar wind particles, SWAN aims to enhance our understanding of solar dynamics, the heliosphere, and the fundamental processes that shape space weather. The findings from this experiment contribute to advancing solar physics and improving predictive models for space weather impacts on Earth and beyond.
