Resource titles for MSU Solar Journal club
The readings listed here have been suggested as resources for students in solar physics. The reviews should be a good place to
begin looking for background information about specific topics. Many of these papers have been previously discussed in the jounal
club. When known, the date that a paper was last discussed is in brackets.
