We are planning to carry out two kinds of study in this unique opportunity: characterization of quiet Sun magnetic fields including their evolution, and the study of moving magnetic features and flux cancellation events in sunspots.
The two problems will be investigated using coordinated observations of Hinode
and four solar telescopes in Canary Islands. SOT onboard Hinode and solar
telescopes in Canary Islands (SST, VTT, THEMIS, and DOT) will allow us
to perform perform high precision spectro-polarimetric measurements in different
spectral ranges (in the photosphere and the chromosphere), and imaging observations at the highest spatial resolution possible. All layers of the solar
atmosphere will be covered from the photosphere to the corona, by means of XRT and EIS onboard Hinode. |
