Coronal Elemental Abundances during A-class Solar Flares Observed by Chandrayaan-2 XSM

Lakshitha Nama, Biswajit Mondal, S Narendranath +1

The abundances of low First Ionisation Potential (FIP) elements are three to four times higher (FIP bias) in the closed loop active corona than in the photosphere, known as the FIP…

Coronal Elemental Abundance: New Results from Soft X-ray Spectroscopy of the Sun

S. Narendranath, P. Sreekumar, Netra S Pillai +3

Elemental abundances in the solar corona are known to be different from those observed in the solar photosphere. The ratio of coronal to photospheric abundance shows a dependence o…

Simulating charge transport to understand the spectral response of Swept Charge Devices

P. S. Athiray, P. Sreekumar, S. Narendranath +1

Swept Charge Devices (SCD) are novel X-ray detectors optimized for improved spectral performance without any demand for active cooling. The Chandrayaan-1 X-ray Spectrometer (C1XS)…
