Dear Colleagues,

We cordially invite you to submit a contributed abstract for the Fall AGU 2016 meeting, session SH011, “New Observations and Recent Results for Solar X-ray Spectral Measurements and their Applications for Earth’s Atmosphere.” This session is inspired by recent and upcoming missions to measure the critically under-observed ~0.2-5 keV (~0.25-6 nm) spectral range, including the Miniature X-ray Solar Spectrometer (MinXSS) CubeSat; the session includes hard X-rays, and is not limited to just the soft X-ray range.

We invite presentations discussing spectrally-resolved solar X-ray measurements (including spectroscopy and imaging, both soft and hard X-rays), new techniques, and instrumentation; their implications for studies of plasma heating and particle acceleration in the flaring and quiescent corona; and their influence on Earth’s upper atmosphere.  The full session description, and a link to submit an abstract, can be found here:

The deadline to submit an abstract is 3 August 2016.  We look forward to your submissions!

Conveners: Amir Caspi (SwRI), Tom Woods (CU/LASP)
