Andrew M. Coates

Andrew M. Coates is a scientist specializing in space physics, particularly studying how particles from the sun, called solar energetic particles, interact with space around Earth and other planets. He conducts research to better understand space weather, which can affect satellite operations and communications. Coates works with space missions and satellite data to investigate how particles are accelerated and how they travel through space, helping to predict and mitigate potential impacts on technological systems. His work contributes to our knowledge of the space environment and its influence on Earth.
