Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS)
EIS Records Solar Extreme-Ultraviolet (EUV) Spectra That Contain Information on the Dynamics, Velocity, Temperature, and Density of the Emitting Plasma
Spectra Are Obtained With High Spatial Resolution
- Spectra at Many Locations Within an Entire Solar Structure Can Be Recorded
Spectra Are Obtained With Sufficient Time Resolution to Determine the Dynamics As a Function of Position Within Solar Flare and Active Region Loops
Spectra Can Be Accurately Related to the Images Obtained From the Solar-B White Light and X-Ray Telescopes
EIS Is the First EUV Solar Spectrometer Capable of Obtaining High Spectral Resolution Data With Both High Spatial and Temporal Resolution
