Future perspectives in solar hot plasma observations in the soft X-rays

Alain Jody Corso, Giulio Del Zanna, Vanessa Polito

The soft X-rays (SXRs: 90--150 ) are among the most interesting spectral ranges to be investigated in the next generation of solar missions due to their unique capability of dia…

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…

Metis: the Solar Orbiter visible light and ultraviolet coronal imager

Ester Antonucci, Marco Romoli, Vincenzo Andretta +100

Metis is the first solar coronagraph designed for a space mission capable of performing simultaneous imaging of the off-limb solar corona in both visible and UV light. The observat…
