Li: Lead Scientist ---------- Y.-K. Ko: Commander, Planner M. Uzzo R. Wu Command file: 03.01.19.16:46:57.cmd.log Activity: --------- 1) Coronal Plasma Compressibility (Coronal Hole) Observation Sequence: 03.01_Li_CH2.tcl SCI_SPEC: The coronal hole study is to investigate the solar wind outflow and temperatures above coronal holes as the solar activity is declining. The goal of the study is to investigate characteristics of the solar wind plasma in such a phase. Since current coronal holes are not clean, the observation will also allow the determination of outflow speed and ion temperatures of denser channels hidden in coronal hole structures.
