Science Goal: Cycle 25 Bright Points
Program: Normal 320"x82", 1 side, Q75
Target: Bright Points
xcen=-31 ycen=537
Instrument: SOTSP
HOP/JOP: 336
Description:
Small magnetic features and coronal bright points have been shown to indicate the bands of activity associated with the solar cycle. The precise location of these bands is important for predicting the timing of solar minimum and, more generally, the long-term variability of the Sun. Hinode SP measurements will give us high resolution vector field data, and IRIS will show the chromospheric spectral signature of the bright points.
