Project:
Constraining the Heating Mechanisms of Non-Flaring Coronal Loops
During Week 2 here I played with some practice data for my project from EIT. The postscripts that resulted from that work are below:

Week 3 I learned a bit about CHIANTI, which is an atomic database. I generated synthetic spectra and learned the limitations of approximations.
I spent the rest of the time looking for candidate loops and then analyzing them. The results can be found in my FINAL PRESENTATION!
