The Sunrise Chromospheric Infrared Spectro-Polarimeter SCIP: an instrument for SUNRISE III

Y. Katsukawa, J. C. del Toro Iniesta, S. K. Solanki +54

The Sunrise balloon-borne solar observatory is equipped with a one-meter aperture optical telescope, offering a unique platform for uninterrupted seeing-free observations across ul…

The first out-of-ecliptic observations of the polar magnetic field of the Sun

D. Calchetti, S. K. Solanki, J. Hirzberger +25

Direct remote-sensing observations of the solar poles have been hindered by the restricted view obtained from the ecliptic plane. For the first time ever, Solar Orbiter with its re…

Formation of chromospheric Fe I lines in the near ultraviolet in 1D atmospheres

E. Harnes, H. N. Smitha, A. Korpi-Lagg +2

In the near ultraviolet (NUV) part of the solar spectrum, there are several Fe I lines with very broad profiles, typical of chromospheric lines. These lines are largely unexplored…

Magnetic properties of orphan penumbrae

J. S. Castellanos Durán, B. Löptien, A. Korpi-Lagg +2

Orphan penumbrae (OPU) are features resembling sunspot penumbrae, but are not connected to an umbra. Here we compare OPUs and sunspot penumbrae, including their filaments. We also…

Superstrong magnetic fields in sunspot bipolar light bridges

J. S. Castellanos Durán, A. Korpi-Lagg, S. K. Solanki +2

Recent solar observations of bipolar light bridges (BLBs) in sunspots have, in a few individual cases, revealed magnetic fields up to 8.2 kG, which is at least twice as strong as t…

: A spectropolarimetric inversion code for the coupled inference of atomic line parameters

D. Vukadinović, H. N. Smitha, A. Korpi-Lagg +3

For many transitions, atomic data, such as the oscillator strength (log(gf)) and the central wavelength of the line, are poorly constrained or even unknown. We present and test a n…

The MODEST catalog of depth-dependent spatially coupled inversions of sunspots observed by Hinode/SOT-SP

J. S. Castellanos Durán, N. Milanovic, A. Korpi-Lagg +3

We present a catalog that we named MODEST containing depth-dependent information on the atmospheric conditions inside sunspot groups of all types. The catalog is currently composed…

Reconstruction of total solar irradiance variability as simultaneously apparent from Solar Orbiter and Solar Dynamics Observatory

K. L. Yeo, N. A. Krivova, S. K. Solanki +42

Solar irradiance variability has been monitored almost exclusively from the Earth's perspective. {We present a method to combine the unprecedented observations of the photospheric…

Coronal voids and their magnetic nature

J. D. Nölke, S. K. Solanki, J. Hirzberger +68

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) observations of the quiet solar atmosphere reveal extended regions of weak emission compared to the ambient quiescent corona. The magnetic nature of these…

Intensity contrast of solar network and faculae close to the solar limb, observed from two vantage points

K. Albert, N. A. Krivova, J. Hirzberger +43

The brightness of faculae and network depends on the angle at which they are observed and the magnetic flux density. Close to the limb, assessment of this relationship has until no…

Stereoscopic disambiguation of vector magnetograms: first applications to SO/PHI-HRT data

G. Valori, D. Calchetti, A. Moreno Vacas +34

Spectropolarimetric reconstructions of the photospheric vector magnetic field are intrinsically limited by the 180-ambiguity in the orientation of the transverse component.…

Wavefront error of PHI/HRT on Solar Orbiter at various heliocentric distances

F. Kahil, A. Gandorfer, J. Hirzberger +31

We use wavefront sensing to characterise the image quality of the the High Resolution Telescope (HRT) of the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (SO/PHI) data products during the…

Expulsion of counter Evershed flows from sunspot penumbrae

J. S. Castellanos Durán, A. Korpi-Lagg, S. K. Solanki

In addition to the Evershed flow directed from the umbra towards the outer boundary of the sunspot, under special circumstances, a counter Evershed flow (CEF) in the opposite direc…

Direct assessment of SDO/HMI helioseismology of active regions on the Sun's far side using SO/PHI magnetograms

D. Yang, L. Gizon, H. Barucq +47

Earth-side observations of solar p modes can be used to image and monitor magnetic activity on the Sun's far side. Here we use magnetograms of the far side obtained by the Polarime…

Spectropolarimetric investigation of magnetohydrodynamic wave modes in the photosphere: First results from PHI on board Solar Orbiter

D. Calchetti, M. Stangalini, S. Jafarzadeh +31

In November 2021, Solar Orbiter started its nominal mission phase. The remote-sensing instruments on board the spacecraft acquired scientific data during three observing windows su…

The ratio of horizontal to vertical displacement in solar oscillations estimated from combined SO/PHI and SDO/HMI observations

J. Schou, J. Hirzberger, D. Orozco Suárez +44

In order to make accurate inferences about the solar interior using helioseismology, it is essential to understand all the relevant physical effects on the observations. One effect…

Solar-Cycle Variation of quiet-Sun Magnetism and Surface Gravity Oscillation Mode

Maarit J. Korpi-Lagg, Andreas Korpi-Lagg, Nigul Olspert +1

The origin of the quiet Sun magnetism is under debate. Investigating the solar cycle variation observationally in more detail can give us clues about how to resolve the controversi…
