High Resolutions Studies of the Structure of the Solar Atmosphere

Abstract

During this first year we have concentrated on the analysis, and the image enhancement and processing of an extensive set of the EUV/Skylab data for the search of empirical characteristics of coronal heating in different scale magnetic regions on the Sun. Student involvement in our research projects has been quite successful. These students are Martina Arndt, Fred Blundell, Amy Mossman, Gretchen McPhee and Eric Woods. During this funding period we have also collaborated with Prof. You Qin Hu, from the University of Science and Technology of China, who visited the Solar and Stellar Physics Division for three months, and with Dr. Ruth Esser who has recently joined the Division as a physicist.
