CLASP Constraints on the Magnetization and Geometrical Complexity of the Chromosphere-Corona Transition Region

J. Trujillo Bueno, J. Štěpán, L. Belluzzi +25

The Chromospheric Lyman-Alpha Spectro-Polarimeter (CLASP) is a suborbital rocket experiment that on 3rd September 2015 measured the linear polarization produced by scattering proce…

A Statistical Inference Method for Interpreting the CLASP Observations

J. Stepan, J. Trujillo Bueno, L. Belluzzi +25

On 3rd September 2015, the Chromospheric Lyman-Alpha SpectroPolarimeter (CLASP) successfully measured the linear polarization produced by scattering processes in the hydrogen Lyman…

Helical motions of fine-structure prominence threads observed by Hinode and IRIS

Takenori J. Okamoto, Wei Liu, Saku Tsuneta

Fine-structure dynamics in solar prominences holds critical clues to understanding their physical nature of significant space-weather implications. We report evidence of rotational…

Development of a Precise Polarization Modulator for UV Spectropolarimetry

Shin-nosuke Ishikawa, Toshifumi Shimizu, Ryouhei Kano +6

We developed a polarization modulation unit (PMU) to rotate a waveplate continuously in order to observe solar magnetic fields by spectropolarimetry. The non-uniformity of the PMU…

Photon mean free paths, scattering, and ever-increasing telescope resolution

Philip Judge, Lucia Kleint, Han Uitenbroek +3

We revisit an old question: what are the effects of observing stratified atmospheres on scales below a photon mean free path? The mean free path of photons emerging from the solar…

On the inversion of the scattering polarization and the Hanle effect signals in the hydrogen Lyman- line

R. Ishikawa, A. Asensio Ramos, L. Belluzzi +5

Magnetic field measurements in the upper chromosphere and above, where the gas-to-magnetic pressure ratio is lower than unity, are essential for understanding the thermal struc…
