Space Climate Studies with the Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope on board Aditya-L1 mission
Abstract
The Solar Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (SUIT) is an instrument on-board Aditya-L1. It will measure and monitor the solar radiation in the wavelength range 200-400 nm, which is central to our understanding of Sun-climate relationship. SUIT will provide full disk images using 11 filters (3 broadband and eight narrowband) allowing us, for the first time, to measure and monitor spatially resolved solar spectral irradiance that governs the chemistry of oxygen and ozone in the stratosphere of the Earth's atmosphere.
