Abstract

In this contribution, we have summarized the current stage and perspective of cooperation between different scientific institutions in Serbia in the field of the investigation of the solar influences and effects on our planet. These activities involved 14 researchers from 7 institutions. The investigations are based on experimental, theoretical and numerical work and results are published in numerous papers in respected international journals. In order to make better connection and coordination of relevant activities in Serbia with international tendencies in this research field researchers participate in several international projects and programs. Bearing in mind the importance of the Sun's impact on our planet, the lives of people as well on modern technologies the general impression is that it is necessary to improve the existing infrastructure and increase the number of involved scientists. This study aims to present the current tendency of integrating contemporary research, people and technology in our country, in order to establish cooperation with other relevant groups and individuals.
