SOT: HOP101 seismology at south pole
2011-03-06T21:01:00 to 2011-03-07T12:56:35
Science Goal: Helioseismology Observations of the Sun's polar regions with SOT
Program: HOP101: CaH 4x4 22ms, Q50 for helioseismology
Target: South Pole
xcen=-16 ycen=-938
Instrument: SOT
HOP/JOP: 101
Description:
Hinode/SOT provides a unique opportunity to investigate the dynamics of the near-polar regions and measure the speed of high-latitude meridional flows and their variations during various periods of the solar cycle. These observations are best done during the periods of the high inclinations of the Sun???s axis, 2-10 March and 3-11 September, every year.
