- SOME RESULTS IN A NUTSHELL
-
- The movie shows iron charge state distribution in daily images. The E/Q axis is a measure for the velocity of the iron
- ions. The 'horizontal' lines are drawn for ion velocities of 300, 400, 500, and 600 km/s from bottom to top, as indicated.
- The 'vertical' lines give the charge state of the iron ion, as indicated. The charge state distribution is a measure of the
- electron temperature in the corona. If the charge state distribution is centered at high charges, the electron temperature
- is high and vice versa. Note the correlation of the average charge of the charge state distribution and ion velocity (pretty
- much the same as the solar wind proton velocity).
