Latest Continuum image |
The displayed image shows the latest
Hα acquisition taken by the INAF - Catania Astrophysical
Observatory, with overplotted magnetic field contours taken by
HMI/SDO. When weather conditions permit, every hour a full-disc
image of the Sun at the center of the Hα line (656.28 nm ± 0.25 nm)
is combined with HMI measurements of the line-of-sight component of
the photospheric magnetic field. Positive magnetic fields are shown
in red contours, while negative magnetic fields are shown in blue.
The contours correspond to +/- 200 G and +/- 1000 G. Observations in
the Hα line are conducted between 8:00 and 14:00 local time
(CET/CEST).
