Hinode -19 and SOLAR-C Science Meeting was successfully closed with contribution from a large number of participants. Thank you very much. Two files below are open for paticipants.
Note that the password to download them is informed to only the participants.To mark the 20th anniversary of Hinode, this meeting is organized as a forum to share the results achieved to date and to outline the research process leading to SOLAR-C. Researchers from Japan and abroad will gather at Nagoya University to discuss a wide range of topics, including solar atmospheric heating, flares, and magnetic reconnection. They will also discuss collaborative observations with Parker Solar Probe, Solar Orbiter, DKIST, SUNRISE3 and so on. Through these discussions, we aim to build a foundation for international research collaboration toward SOLAR-C, while building on the legacy of Hinode.
