Goal
Disseminate the results of our action by publishing articles related to solar irradiance in peer-reviewed journals. The principal topics are
- The connections between the variability of the TSI, the EUV/FUV spectrum and indices for solar activity.
- Develop new solar activity proxies for aeronomy using data from PROBA2/LYRA + data from ground based instruments.
- Intercalibration of TSI measurements from SOHO and PICARD.
- Specifications for measuring the EUV/FUV spectrum using a new instrumental concept with a limited number of spectral channels.
Successes
- A publication on the multiscale reconstruction of spectral bands in the VUV from proxies has just been accepted in Geoph. Res. Lett.: T. Dudok de Wit, M. Kretzschmar, J. Lilensten and T. Woods, Finding the best proxies for the solar UV irradiance (2009).
- A publication on blind source separation approach for solar multi-wavelength irradiance analysis has been submitted to the Proc. of the IEEE: T. Dudok de Wit, S. Moussaoui, P.-O. Amblard, J. Aboudarham, F. Auchère, M. Kretzschmar and J. Lilensten, Multispectral imaging the Sun in the UV.
- A publication on the model is in preparation for J. Geoph. Res.: Egorova T., Rozanov E., Ozolin Y., and Schmutz W. The atmospheric effects of 2003 SPE simulated with chemistry-ionosphere-climate model SOCOL-i.
- A publication on the impact of flares on the variability of the TSI is in preparation: M. Kretzschmar, T. Dudok de Wit, W. Schmutz, S. Mekaoui, J.-F. Hochedez, S. DeWitte, The effect of flares on the Total Solar Irradiance.
Exceptional Discoveries
Progress so far
A PhD student at CNRS (Gaël Cessateur) started in January 2009 working on the definition of a new instrumental concept for reconstructing the VUV spectrum from spectral bands or spectral lines. He contribute to the action be defining the hardware implementation of our spectral reconstruction method.
