The Hinode Spectro-Polarimeter

Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research

The joint Japan/US/UK Hinode mission includes the first large-aperture visible-light solar telescope flown in space.

Description

One component of the Focal Plane Package of that telescope is a precision spectro-polarimeter designed to measure full Stokes spectra with the intent of using those spectra to infer the magnetic-field vector at high precision in the solar photosphere. This article describes the characteristics of the flight hardware of the Hinode Spectro-Polarimeter, and summarizes its in-flight performance.
