Dear Colleagues,
The AGU abstract deadline is just days away: Aug 3 at 11:59pm EDT.
We cordially invite you to submit an 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 invites talks covering ALL X-ray bands, not just soft X-rays -- if your work relates to solar X-rays of any type, please consider submitting an abstract to this session. Note that this is the only X-ray-related session at AGU this year, and one of very few flare-related sessions.
We invite presentations discussing spectrally-resolved solar X-ray measurements (including spectroscopy and imaging), new techniques, and instrumentation (including proposed new instruments); their implications for studies of plasma heating and particle acceleration in the flaring and quiescent corona; and their influence on Earth’s upper atmosphere and ionosphere. The full session description, and a link to submit an abstract, can be found here: http://agu.confex.com/agu/fm16/preliminaryview.cgi/Session13377
The deadline to submit an abstract is 3 August 2016 at 11:59pm EDT. We look forward to your submissions!
Conveners: Amir Caspi (SwRI), Tom Woods (CU/LASP)
