Origins of Solar Activity - First Year Report, AASERT Grant

Abstract

This report describes the first year of training and progress of Mr. J.J. Blanchette toward a Ph.D. in Physics, with specialization in Solar Physics. Mr. Blanchette has met all academic requirements to proceed with thesis research. He is a full-time graduate research fellow, and he has gained a good background in solar activity research. He has taken on the task of implementing the focal-plane functions of the Target Selector Telescope of the Flare Genesis Experiment, a balloon-borne telescope for solar activity research. During the report period, Mr. Blanchette presented a description of his work on solar active region NOAA 7260 at the 24th meeting of the Solar Physics Division of the AAS.
