Welcome
to sun.stanford.edu: Home of the Stanford Solar Observatories Group
Welcome!
Here you will find links and information relating to projects of the
Stanford Solar Observatories Group.* Projects include the Michelson
Doppler Imager (MDI), an instrument
currently on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)
spacecraft and part of an international collaboration to study the interior
structure and dynamics of the Sun. Another project, the Helioseismic
and Magnetic Imager (HMI) investigation,
is based on measurements obtained with the HMI instrument as part of
the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)
mission. The goal is to study the origin of solar variability and to
characterize and understand the Sun's interior and the various components
of magnetic activity.

* Observational and theoretical research on the physics of the sun is carried out at Stanford University in several research groups. This page links to the projects carried out by a group of scientists and supporting staff associated with the Center for Space Science and Astrophysics (CSSA) and the Hansen Exerimental Physics Laboratories (HEPL), under the direction of Philip Scherrer (HEPL and the Department of Physics).
