WEEKLY MEETING MINUTES January 19-25 1. Announcements ----------------- SPWG next week. Meeting schedule for Friday follows: - Daily at 9:00 am local in EOF. - Weekly immediately thereafter, ~ 9:30 in EOF. - SPWG at 10:00 am local in the EAF. 2. Operations Constraints ------------------------- * DSN schedule: Continuous contact On Tuesday, January 20 we have a downlink only station, between 19:00 and 03:05 UT (2:00 pm - 10:05 pm local GSFC time). No commanding will be available so * PLAN ACCORDINGLY * !!! * Submode Switches: Will be in Submode #6 all week. 3.

Gopalswamy (gopals@fugee.gsfc.nasa.gov) W Jan 21 JOP063 (#4020), Absorption by H and He Continua in Prominences, EOF: Terry Kucera, CDS/EIT, 20-23 UT T Jan 22 JOP074 (#4030), Filaments and their Environments, 14:00 - 23:00 UT, VLA/Nobeyama/SXT/EIT/CDS/MDI/LASCO, POC: N. Gopalswamy (gopals@fugee.gsfc.nasa.gov) Deadline for experiment input for April roll manuever F Jan 23 SPWG JOP074 (#4030), Filaments and their Environments, 15:00 - 23:00 UT, VLA/Nobeyama/SXT/EIT/CDS/MDI/LASCO, POC: N. Gopalswamy (gopals@fugee.gsfc.nasa.gov) S Jan 24 S Jan 25 Other Activities for Week 04: * MDI high-cadence helioseismology, synoptic magnetograms every 96 minutes Submodes: Submode 6 all week Planners for Week 04: SOL - Nat Gopalswamy CDS - Louise Harra-Murnion SUMER - SUMER OFF/No Planner UVCS - Danuta Dobrzycka EIT - Joe Gurman MDI - Craig DeForest LASCO - George Simnett Relevant notes: --------------- JOP074 -- also be supported by Siberean radio telescope and Sarah Marten's telescope (H-alpha observations) VLA support also. Radio wavelength coverage will be at 2, 6 and 20 cm. CDS running eject_v3 sequence (fast sequence). EIT support includes some partial frame 304 images as well as 195 and 171. JOP063 -- still being determined which ground based observatories will be supporting next week, probably Sac Peak and BBSO, others are to be confirmed.. CDS -- various active region studies will be performed when not supporting JOPs. UVCS -- Global sun studies to obtain line profiles. Monday -- at 0, 30 degrees at 1.5 - 2.5 Rsun Tuesday -- at 60, 120 degrees at 1.5 - 2.5 Rsun Wednesday -- at 150, 180 degrees at 1.5 - 2.5 Rsun Thursday -- at 210, 240 degrees at 1.5 - 2.5 Rsun Friday -- at 300, 330 at 1.5 - 2.5 Rsun Saturday -- scan at +/- 90 degrees at 1.5 - 2.6 Rsun Sunday -- flat field calibration work on OVI detector LASCO -- C1 studies off the west limb to look for evidence of slow solar wind. They can see in C2 but want to try and observe in C1. They will be looking at three wavelengths (center, offband blue and offband red) in Fe X, Fe XIV. Will be doing for 2-3 periods for 1.5 hours each. EIT -- CME watch continues. Holiday on Monday so only in 195 angstroms. Tuesday - Friday line ratio CME watch in 195 and 171 continues. MDI -- continuous contact continues next week.
