摘 要:Department of Physics, Faculty of Natural Science and Technology, Tay Nguyen university has collaborated with Stanford Solar Center of Stanford university on Space Weather monitor project. We have developed the TNU-SuperSID teaching module which has three main parts: antenna, preamplifier and data logger. This module can detect the variation of Very Low Frequency (VLF, 3 - 30 kHz) signals during sunrise and sunset transition, and sudden ionospheric disturbance due to solar flares. In other word, the behavior of the Earth's lower ionosphere corresponding the solar activities is understood by using VLF technique. Our project helps undergraduate students who are learning the astrophysics and space physics to enhance their knowledge in space science and their technical skills with real experiments. Through the participant in this project, students can also be gained their skills such as communication, working in team, processing data, etc.
