 abstract of observational proposal
Main Objective: We will use the Earth alignment of Solar Orbiter to obtain complementary information from Hinode and IRIS

Scientific Justification: This is an equivalent version of HOP 460, but this time having Solar Orbiter and Hinode on similar line of sight. The Earth alignment of Solar Orbiter is an exceptional opportunity to have a complete dataset ni terms of temperature coverage (SPICE with cool lines, large FOV, EIS with hotter lines, IRIS with cool lines and high resolution), Doppler information and composition. nI case of flare/eruption, extra information wil be provided by XRT. SOT can provide the magnetic field at the prominence footpoints. The data will be used also to measure the small scale structure and dynamics of prominences, to better understand formation and energy transport.

 request to SOT
A "normal map" with the highest spatial resolution (0.16" pixels) in this case in order to have a chance at resolving the photospheric field. This will be a difficult observations, so it is a lower priority

 request to XRT
Observations that would be useful if the prominence erupts

 request to EIS
EIS is the most important Hinode instrument for these observations. Would like to use Study ID 615 with the acronym Large_CH_Map_v2. The raster is HOP177_CH_v2. Data volume is 115 Mbits.

https://s2e2.cosmos.esa.int/confluence/spaces/SOSP/pages/475936954/R_BOTH_HRES_HCAD_Filaments

Also coordinating with the SST and DKIST

 remarks
Dates: The Solar Orbiter filament SOOP will start running on October 5 2025 at 19:45 UT and end on October 6 at 18:00 UT.

Time window: We request full coverage. If this is not possible, we give priority to October 5 from 20:30-22:00 UT, and October 6 8:00-12:00 UT. These wil cover the high resolution observation of Solar Orbiter. We will coordinate with DKIST and SST. Exact Timing to be decided.

Target(s) of interest: Prominence at the west limb

Previous HOPs:
HOP 460. A paper submitted

Additional remarks:
Susanna Parenti will be on vacation for much of August so please include Terry Kucera on any emails
