Sounding Rocket Experiment CLASP2 (Chromospheric LAyer Spectro-Polarimeter-2): Development of the UV (Ultraviolet) High-Precision Polarization Spectroscopy Device
No abstract available
The international team is promoting the CLASP2 (Chromospheric LAyer Spectro-Polarimeter 2) sounding rocket experiment, which is the re-flight of CLASP (2015). In this second flight, we will refit the existing CLASP instrument to measure all Stokes parameters in Mg II h k lines, and aim at inferring the magnetic field information in the upper chromosphere combining the Hanle and Zeeman effects. CLASP2 project was approved by NASA in December 2016, and is now scheduled to fly in 2019.
