Study 000490: ACRONYM: Hot_loop_osci_2_v4 (modified version for study ID=460) Key modification: Sparse raster (step size is 4"). This is to increase the FOV and the chances of catching flares. Note: This observation requires running three studies: ACRONYM: PRY_slot_contextLITE (study ID=354) ACRONYM: Hot_loop_osci_1_v4 ACRONYM: Hot_loop_osci_2_v4 This study is designed to detect Doppler shifts and intensity variations mainly in hot coronal and flare emission lines. The observation consists of three studies. Study A is using slot-40 to quickly scan whole AR for obtaining a context image. Studies B and C are using the repeated short raster in high cadence to search for flare-excited oscillations in hot coronal loops, such as standing slow mode waves as observed by SUMER. It also includes a pair of density sensitive Ca XV lines for density diagnostics. The study is designed to detect oscillations and waves in coronal loops of T =1-10 MK. #Study A: Context study ACRONYM: PRY_slot_contextLITE TARGET: AR loops on the limb EXPOSURE TIME: 10 s RASTER: Scanning SLOT: 40" STEP SIZE: 32" FOV: 488"x488" RASTER DURATION: 3m29s REPEAT TIMES: 1 #Study B: ACRONYM: Hot_loop_osci_1_v4 TARGET: AR loops on the limb EXPOSURE TIME: 10 s RASTER: Scanning SLIT: 2" STEP SIZE: 4" FOV: 38"x200" RASTER DURATION: 2m27s REPEAT TIMES: 1 Volume: 1.7 Mbits N_LINES 8 CaXV,181.99;CaXVII,192.85;FeXII,195.12;CaXV,200.98;FeXVI,262.98;FeXXIII,263.76; FeXVII,269.42;FeXV,284.16 #Study C: ACRONYM: Hot_loop_osci_2_v4 TARGET: AR loops on the limb EXPOSURE TIME: 10 s RASTER: Scanning SLIT: 2" STEP SIZE: 4" FOV: 22"x200" RASTER DURATION: 1m37s REPEAT TIMES: 1 Volume: 1 Mbits N_LINES 8 CaXV,181.99;CaXVII,192.85;FeXII,195.12;CaXV,200.98;FeXVI,262.98;FeXXIII,263.76; FeXVII,269.42;FeXV,284.16 Pointing: -------- Flare-productive active region on the limb, better located at the eastern limb. For Study A, the 1/3 FOV is on the disk and 2/3 FOV off the limb. For Studies B and and C the slit center position is set about 30-50 arcsec above the AR on the limb (close to the core of the AR) Use/Instructions to planners: ----------------------------- i) Run Study A (ID=354) first to get a context image of AR. ii) Repeat Study B (Hot_loop_osci_1) for about 5 hours, and then run Study A again for a context image. iii) Repeat Study C (Hot_loop_osci_2) for about 5 hours, and then run Study A again. iv) Stop or repeat ii) and iii) once more if possible. Note: The above 10 hrs observations are better not interrupted. We hope to make observations of at least 10 hrs every day (better 20 hrs/day if allowed), and last for 4-5 days so we can track the AR passing from behind the limb to the front disk to catch loops of different sizes and different parts of loops during this period. Warning: -------- The squence above should run uninterrupted (use chained studies), i.e.(append to hilighted entry).
