Magnetoacoustic Portals in Quiet-Sun Fluxtubes Revealed by Chromospheric Spectropolarimetry with SUNRISE III/SCIP
Takayoshi Oba, Yukio Katsukawa, Masahito Kubo +36
Acoustic waves propagate into the chromosphere, contributing to energy transport and their dynamics. Their upward propagation is restricted to frequencies above the acoustic cutoff…
Three-dimensional Magnetic Field Structure of a Quiet-Sun Region Revealed by Sunrise III/SCIP
Masahito Kubo, Yukio Katsukawa, Yusuke Kawabata +38
The balloon-borne stratospheric solar observatory Sunrise III successfully completed 6.5 days of observations in July 2024. One of its focal-plane instruments, the Sunrise Chromosp…
Three-dimensional Magnetic Structures of Ellerman Bombs revealed by SUNRISE III/SCIP
Yusuke Kawabata, Yukio Katsukawa, Masahito Kubo +37
Ellerman bombs (EBs) are widely recognized as photospheric and chromospheric signatures of magnetic reconnection. However, the three-dimensional (3D) magnetic topology has remained…
Solar flare ribbons structured by uncombed chromospheric loops
L. P. Chitta, E. R. Priest, David Orozco Suárez +33
A part of the magnetic energy released during a flare is transported to the lower atmosphere. High-resolution observations show that flare ribbons, sites of energy deposition at th…
Sunrise III: Overview of Observatory and Instruments
Andreas Korpi-Lagg, Achim Gandorfer, Sami K. Solanki +117
In July 2024, Sunrise completed its third successful science flight. The Sunrise III observatory had been upgraded significantly after the two previous successful flights in 2009 a…
High-speed data processing onboard sunrise chromospheric infrared spectropolarimeter for the SUNRISE III balloon telescope
Masahito Kubo, Yukio Katsukawa, David Hernández Expósito +13
The Sunrise Chromospheric Infrared spectroPolarimeter (SCIP) has been developed for the third flight of the SUNRISE balloon-borne stratospheric solar observatory. The aim of SCIP i…
The on-ground data reduction and calibration pipeline for SO/PHI-HRT
J. Sinjan, D. Calchetti, J. Hirzberger +47
The ESA/NASA Solar Orbiter space mission has been successfully launched in February 2020. Onboard is the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (SO/PHI), which has two telescopes, a…
Development of Fast and Precise Scan Mirror Mechanism for an Airborne Solar Telescope
Takayoshi Oba, Toshifumi Shimizu, Yukio Katsukawa +14
We developed a scan mirror mechanism (SMM) that enable a slit-based spectrometer or spectropolarimeter to precisely and quickly map an astronomical object. The SMM, designed to be…
