MgII linear polarization measurements using the MSFC Solar Ultraviolet Magnetograph
This paper will describe the Marshall Space Flight Center's Solar Ultraviolet Magnetograph (SUMI) sounding rocket program, with emphasis on the polarization characteristics of the VUV optics and their spectral, spatial and polarization resolution. SUMI's first flight (7/30/2010) met all of its mission success criteria and this paper will describe the data that was acquired with emphasis on the ...
متن کاملPhase III of USO Solar Vector Magnetograph
The Solar Vector Magnetograph (SVM) is a modern imaging spectropolarimeter installed at Udaipur Solar Observatory (USO). Earlier phases saw the development of the instrument using off-the-shelf components with in-house software development. Subsequently, improvements were done in the opto-mechanical design of the sub-systems and the telescope tracking system. The third phase of the instrument d...
متن کاملVector Magnetic Fields and Electric Currents from the Imaging Vector Magnetograph
First, we describe a general procedure to produce high quality vector magnetograms using the Imaging Vector Magnetograph (IVM) at Mees Solar Observatory. Two IVM effects are newly discussed and taken into account: (1) the central wavelength of the Fabry-Pérot is found to drift with time as a result of undiagnosed thermal or mechanical instabilities in the instrument; (2) the Stokes V -sign conv...
متن کاملStray Light Effect on Magnetograph Observations
To examine stray light eeect in magnetograph observations, we have determined the point spread functions of the vector magnetograph mounted on the Japanese Solar Flare Telescope based on two indirect methods, one analyzing the solar limb intensity proole, and the other using the Fourier power spectra of photospheric intensity distributions. Point spread functions consist of two parts: a blurrin...

It is generally believed that the energy released in solar flares is stored in nonpotential magnetic fields. The energy buildup could be a response of the coronal magnetic field to the changes in photospheric magnetic environment caused mostly by sunspot motions and emerging fluxes. Since the measurement of magnetic fields in the corona is not available, the field measurement at the photospheri...
