Dear colleagues,
Last call for abstracts, due today (July 31) at 11:59pm ET!
You are cordially invited to submit abstracts to Session SH009 “High-Energy Solar Investigations Through Next-Generation Spectroscopy, from X-rays to Radio and beyond,” for the 2019 AGU Fall Meeting, to be held in San Francisco, CA, 9 – 13 December 2019.
Spectrally resolved measurements across the entire spectrum are critical for advancing our understanding of energetic phenomena on the Sun, during both flares and quiescence. This includes polarimetry and especially imaging spectroscopy, from X-rays and gamma-rays, through UV/EUV, to infrared and radio. To that end, this session invites presentations covering new instrumentation, enabling technology, missions, and concepts for next-generation solar spectroscopy, including spatially-resolved measurements, and the science that would be enabled by such new observations.
The full session description and abstract submission are here:
https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm19/prelim.cgi/Session/80247
The deadline to submit an abstract is Wednesday, 31 Jul 2019, at 23:59 EDT.
We welcome your submissions to this exciting session!

RHESSI Software users,
I’m forwarding this message that was sent to Solarnews last Friday just to make sure you see it. Anonymous FTP to NASA/GSFC will be blocked starting August 1. HTTPS access will continue to work.
The SolarSoft (SSW) update process will be changing August 1 – the new solution is being worked on, but is not quite ready.
If you use anonymous FTP (e.g. mirror) to retrieve RHESSI data files from GSFC, that will no longer work.
Kim
Secretary's note: This announcement is being sent out prior to the next Solarnews issue (1 August) as the item is time-critical and potentially affects many people in the community.
________________________________
Important changes to SolarSoft
The SolarSoft library is distributed to the community through an anonymous FTP site at NASA/GSFC. Effective August 1st, NASA will be decommissioning unencrypted/anonymous FTP login, and so current scripts for installing and updating SolarSoft libraries (and databases) from the FTP server at GSFC will cease to function.
In preparation for this decommissioning, we are currently modifying the scripts to connect to a new server at https://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/solarsoft<https://www.nso.edu/solarnews/?nltr=Mzc7ODg4O2h0dHBzOi8vc29ob3d3dy5uYXNjb20…>. These modifications are not yet complete, but are expected to be working soon. We will keep the community informed of any progress.
Note that individual instrument directories are already accessible through, for example,
https://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/solarsoft/soho<https://www.nso.edu/solarnews/?nltr=Mzc7ODg4O2h0dHBzOi8vc29ob3d3dy5uYXNjb20…>
https://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/solarsoft/hinode<https://www.nso.edu/solarnews/?nltr=Mzc7ODg4O2h0dHBzOi8vc29ob3d3dy5uYXNjb20…>
and the directory structure is the same as for the ftp site.
If you have any questions or problems, a SolarSoft helpdesk has been set up at: ssw_help(a)grace.nascom.nasa.gov<mailto:ssw_help@grace.nascom.nasa.gov>.
