Evergreeners research solar UV oscillations with SUMER data from SOHO
Dr. Phil Judge taught us to analyze data from a satellite orbiting the Sun. Noah Heller learned solar physics at Evergreen in the 2000-2001 academic year, and applied it during his summer research at Boulder. We learned to find which ultraviolet oscillations are stronger in magnetic regions of the Sun's atmosphere. This contributes to efforts to solve the mystery of why the temperature in the Sun's upper atmosphere is millions of degrees higher than the Sun's surface temperature. links to Noah's poster and paper; Zita's photopage, researchpage, or homepage
