Current and Future Capabilities

Realism of models has two components: sophistication of implemented physics and realism of the overall setup. Current 3D radiation MHD simulations of the coupled solar atmosphere are presenting a compromise on a middle ground. Domains are at best large enough to capture the extent of small active regions, but the commonly adapted use of periodic boundary conditions leads in many setups to an...
Task-based computing is offering a break-through in our capabilities to model astrophysical phenomena, and in particular in the context of solar modeling there are several routes along which we can take advantage of this general methodology. In the context of global modeling of the solar interior, we can utilize the ability to tune resolution as a function of depth, and by engaging very low...
Instrumentation for solar observations always represents a trade-off between spatial resolution, spectral resolution, field-of-view, time-coherence, calibration, and available money. The current state-of-the art for optical and near-infrared wavelengths consists of Fabry-Perot interferometers, and various types of imaging spectrographs.
In this talk I will discuss some aspects of these...
In this talk I will provide a brief overview of the upcoming solar missions focused on the Sun's corona: MUSE and Solar-C/EUVST, scheduled for launch in 2027 and 2028, respectively. The Multi-slit Solar Explorer (MUSE) is a NASA MIDEX mission, composed of a multi-slit EUV spectrograph (in three spectral bands around 171Å, 284Å, and 108Å) and an EUV context imager (in two passbands around 195Å...
