Novel measurement techniques for space plasma in Heliophysics
Novel measurement techniques for space plasma in Heliophysics
Session ID#: 76218
Session Description:
This session focuses on novel instrument techniques enabling new areas of science in Heliophysics. Challenging science targets have been advanced by emerging technologies throughout the space era, and recent technological advances provides a variety of investigations that can enhance the technical capabilities and scientific closure of future missions. The observation targets include any types of plasmas and associated phenomena in the sun, the Earth, planets and bodies, interplanetary space, and the interstellar media. Abstracts are solicited that investigate and develop instruments or supporting technologies for studies of (1) particles and fields in-situ, (2) global plasma distributions, and (3) optical emissions relating to plasma dynamics. A clear focus on the instrument technique is highly appreciated for abstracts in this session rather than a general description of missions or ground based networks. However, enabling technologies for a novel scientific concept will also be welcomed if the abstract focuses on the technology side.
