EP 5.2: Invited Talk

Highlights of SDO — •Jesper Schou — Max-Planck-Institute für Sonnensystemforschung

The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) was launched in 2010 and has been collecting vast quantities of data over the past nearly five years. SDO has three instruments: HMI (Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager) designed to study the Sun using helioseismology and near surface magnetic fields, AIA (Atmospheric Imaging Assembly) designed to study the Sun’s atmosphere using narrow band imaging in the ultraviolet and EVE (Extreme Ultraviolet Variability Experiment) designed to study the solar atmosphere in integrated light at high spectral resolution.

In this talk I will describe some of the discoveries from SDO so far, including both results using the instruments as originally envisioned and entirely unexpected results from more creative uses, including ones not directly related to the Sun.
