UV spectroscopy of the extended solar corona: Results from UVCS/Spartan

摘要: Remote sensing of the solar corona using ultraviolet spectroscopy can be used to characterize physical state plasma along a wide region around trajectory near-Sun flyby spacecraft (solar probe). Data from such an instrument separate spatial temporal variations in data received situ instruments aboard probe. We present results UVCS/Spartan space shuttle missions order show examples diagnostic techniques that determine velocity distributions and bulk outflow velocities protons minor ions wind.
