SO/PHI Data Tutorial

This repo originally contained the SO/PHI tutorial for the Data Analysis Day at the Solar Orbiter 8th Workshop in Belfast UK (September 2022).

The original form can be found here: https://github.com/SolarOrbiterWorkshop/solo8_tutorials

The tutorial has now been updated (October 2023)










Useful Links and Information

Instrument Basics and Key Properties

  • Two telescopes:
    • HRT (High Resolution Telescope)
    • FDT (Full Disc Telescope)
  • FDT always has full disc within FOV
  • HRT has much smaller FOV with much higher resolution
  • They cannot operate simultaneously
  • They are not continuously operating -> check quick look links above to see when Data is available
  • They work in a very similar way to SDO/HMI -> for a comparison see: SDO/HMI - SO/PHI-HRT Comparison
  • If you have ideas for scientific campaigns - get in contact via: sophi_support@mps.mpg.de

Launch an online juypter notebook via Binder: Binder

Locally:

git clone https://github.com/JonasSinjan/Solar_Orbiter_PHI_Data_Tutorial.git

Tested OS:

  • Linux Ubuntu
conda env create --name phi_tutorial --file=environment.yml

Otherwise manually install packages listed in requirements.txt with pip

Troubleshooting

If the environment phi_tutorial does not appear as a kernel in Jupyter Notebooks:

conda activate phi_tutorial
pip install ipykernel
python -m ipykernel install --user --name phi_tutorial --display-name "Python (phi_tutorial)"
