Spicules in IRIS Mg II Observations: Automated Identification
Vicki L. Herde, Phillip C. Chamberlin, Don Schmit +4
We have developed an algorithm to identify solar spicules in the first ever systematic survey of on-disk spicules exclusively using Mg II spectral observations. Using this algorith…
Probing the Physics of the Solar Atmosphere with the Multi-slit Solar Explorer (MUSE): II. Flares and Eruptions
Mark C. M. Cheung, Juan Martínez-Sykora, Paola Testa +25
Current state-of-the-art spectrographs cannot resolve the fundamental spatial (sub-arcseconds) and temporal scales (less than a few tens of seconds) of the coronal dynamics of sola…
Probing the physics of the solar atmosphere with the Multi-slit Solar Explorer (MUSE): I. Coronal Heating
Bart De Pontieu, Paola Testa, Juan Martinez-Sykora +24
The Multi-slit Solar Explorer (MUSE) is a proposed NASA MIDEX mission, currently in Phase A, composed of a multi-slit EUV spectrograph (in three narrow spectral bands centered arou…
A new view of the solar interface region from the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS)
B. De Pontieu, V. Polito, V. Hansteen +11
The Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) has been obtaining near- and far-ultraviolet images and spectra of the solar atmosphere since July 2013. The unique combination of…
High resolution soft X-ray spectroscopy and the quest for the hot (5-10 MK) plasma in solar active regions
G. Del Zanna, V. Andretta, P. J. Cargill +5
We discuss the diagnostics available to study the 5-10 MK plasma in the solar corona, which is key to understanding the heating in the cores of solar active regions. We present sev…
Spectral Evidence for Heating at Large Column Mass in Umbral Solar Flare Kernels I: IRIS NUV Spectra of the X1 Solar Flare of 2014 Oct 25
Adam F. Kowalski, Elizabeth Butler, Adrian N. Daw +5
The GOES X1 flare SOL2014-10-25T17:08:00 was a three-ribbon solar flare observed with IRIS in the near and far ultraviolet. One of the flare ribbons crossed a sunspot umbra, produc…
