Study 000473:

ACRONYM: CORE_FLARE_TR120x120 

Perform a high-cadence (3m 30s)  120"x120"  sparse (4") 
raster over an active region to study the transition-region
response during flares.

TARGET        : Active region
EXPOSURE TIME : 4s
RASTER        : Scanning
SLIT          : 2"
STEP_SIZE     : 4"
FOV           : 120"x120"
SPECTRAL WIND.: 10
DATA COMP.    : JPEG85
RASTER DURATON: 3m 5s
DATA VOLUME   : 3.4 MBits (18.4 kBits/s)
LINES         : He II, Mg V, O V, Mg VI, Si VII, Si X, Fe XIV, 
                Fe XVI, Ca XVII, Fe XVII, Fe XXIII.

POINTING: 
--------

  The core of an active region observed on-disk, not too far from 
  Sun centre (within a few days meridian passage).

INSTRUCTION TO PLANNERS:
-----------------------

The study should be run continuously for about 10 hours or more
on an AR likely to flare.


SOT:

FG:  NFI: Na I 589.6 nm shuttered Stokes IV with partial field of view 
(164"x164"). 2x2 binning. 

Cadence: 1-3 minutes or longer.

SP:  Fast Map STOKES IQUV 164"x164"  scan to be run at the beginning and 
(possibly) at the end of the SOT/FGIV sequence.

XRT:

FOV: large to cover the AR. At least 384x384
Exposure: AEC
Binning:  2x2 is acceptable.
Filters: at least Al_poly/Open and one thick filter.

WARNING:
-------
None
