Next-Generation Comprehensive Data-Driven Models of Solar Eruptive Events
Joel C. Allred, Graham S. Kerr, Meriem Alaoui +11
Solar flares and coronal mass ejections are interrelated phenomena that together are known as solar eruptive events. These are the main drivers of space weather and understanding t…
The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI)
Steven Christe, Meriem Alaoui, Joel Allred +26
FOXSI is a direct-imaging, hard X-ray (HXR) telescope optimized for solar flare observations. It detects hot plasma and energetic electrons in and near energy release sites in the…
Fundamentals of impulsive energy release in the corona
Albert Y. Shih, Lindsay Glesener, Säm Krucker +30
It is essential that there be coordinated and co-optimized observations in X-rays, gamma-rays, and EUV during the peak of solar cycle 26 (~2036) to significantly advance our unders…
Sustaining high-solar-activity research
Albert Y. Shih, Amir Caspi, Jessie Duncan +3
Research efforts that require observations of high solar activity, such as multiwavelength studies of large solar flares and CMEs, must contend with the 11-year solar cycle to a de…
The need for focused, hard X-ray investigations of the Sun
Lindsay Glesener, Albert Y. Shih, Amir Caspi +46
Understanding the nature of energetic particles in the solar atmosphere is one of the most important outstanding problems in heliophysics. Flare-accelerated particles compose a hug…
Magnetic Energy Powers the Corona: How We Can Understand its 3D Storage & Release
Amir Caspi, Daniel B. Seaton, Roberto Casini +12
The coronal magnetic field is the prime driver behind many as-yet unsolved mysteries: solar eruptions, coronal heating, and the solar wind, to name a few. It is, however, still poo…
Improving Multi-Dimensional Data Formats, Access, and Assimilation Tools for the Twenty-First Century
Daniel B. Seaton, Amir Caspi, Roberto Casini +12
Heliophysics image data largely relies on a forty-year-old ecosystem built on the venerable Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) data standard. While many in situ measurements us…
COMPLETE: A flagship mission for complete understanding of 3D coronal magnetic energy release
Amir Caspi, Daniel B. Seaton, Roberto Casini +12
COMPLETE is a flagship mission concept combining broadband spectroscopic imaging and comprehensive magnetography from multiple viewpoints around the Sun to enable tomographic recon…
The Astropy Project: Sustaining and Growing a Community-oriented Open-source Project and the Latest Major Release (v5.0) of the Core Package
The Astropy Collaboration, Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Pey Lian Lim +133
The Astropy Project supports and fosters the development of open-source and openly-developed Python packages that provide commonly needed functionality to the astronomical communit…
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager Project for MeV Astronomy
John A. Tomsick, Steven E. Boggs, Andreas Zoglauer +33
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a 0.2-5 MeV Compton telescope capable of imaging, spectroscopy, and polarimetry of astrophysical sources. Such capabilities are made p…
MASER: A Science Ready Toolbox for Low Frequency Radio Astronomy
Baptiste Cecconi, Alan Loh, Pierre Le Sidaner +21
MASER (Measurements, Analysis, and Simulation of Emission in the Radio range) is a comprehensive infrastructure dedicated to time-dependent low frequency radio astronomy (up to abo…
Diagnosing Coronal Heating Processes with Spectrally Resolved Soft X-ray Measurements
Amir Caspi, Albert Y. Shih, Harry P. Warren +2
Decades of astrophysical observations have convincingly shown that soft X-ray (SXR; ~0.1--10 keV) emission provides unique diagnostics for the high temperature plasmas observed in…
First flight of the Gamma-Ray Imager/Polarimeter for Solar flares (GRIPS) instrument
Nicole Duncan, P. Saint-Hilaire, A. Y. Shih +16
The Gamma-Ray Imager/Polarimeter for Solar flares (GRIPS) is a balloon-borne telescope designed to study solar-flare particle acceleration and transport. We describe GRIPS's first…
