FIRS: a new instrument for photospheric and chromospheric studies at the DST.

The simultaneous observation of select spectral lines at optical and infrared wavelengths allows for the determination of the magnetic field at several photospheric and chromospheric heights and thus…

Design and development of the Advanced Technology Solar Telescope (ATST)

High-resolution studies of the Sun's magnetic fields are needed for a better understanding of solar magnetic fields and the fundamental processes responsible for solar variability. The generation of…
