Needs for high resolution spectroscopy in ultraviolet solar physics.
Abstract
The study of the solar atmosphere (from 5000K to few millions K) is made through ultraviolet lines emitted by ionized elements. The understanding of the heating processes, the solar wind generation and its acceleration mechanisms require a global and detailed mass and energy budget of the atmosphere. The new ultraviolet spectrometers proposed on SOHO satellite are able to combine enough angular, spectral and temporal resolutions to establish this budget.
