Session S2: Irradiance and EUV Calibrations Thursday, Feb 16 10:30 - noon Session Organizers: Paul Boerner, Frank Eparvier, Rock Bush Introduction: - Solar observations in the EUV during SDO (Boerner) (5 min) - Calibrations in the EUV (Eparvier) (5 min) Topic 1: EUV cross-calibrations between SDO (AIA and EVE) and non-SDO instruments Brief (3-5 minutes; 1-3 slides) presentations on other EUV instruments that can be cross-calibrated with SDO instruments are welcome as a starting point for discussion. We’ll hope to get preliminary answers to the following questions: - What is needed (coordination, data products) to cross-calibrate EIS and EVE? - What is needed to cross-calibrate EIS and AIA? - What is needed to cross-calibrate TRACE/EIT/EUVI and AIA? - What can be gained from these cross-calibrations? Topic 2: AIA and EVE cross-calibration We’ll discuss the details of AIA and EVE cross-calibration in order to get a sense of how to answer the following questions: - What data products are needed from AIA and EVE to cross-calibrate? - What sort of planning/coordination of cross-calibration observations needs to be done? - How will the cross-calibration be implemented? - How will we handle updates to the calibration (from rocket underflights, etc.)? - How accurate do we expect this cross-calibration to be? - How accurate does it need to be?
