The Inner Coronagraph on Board ADITYA-L1 and Automatic Detection of CMEs

Abstract

Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC) on board ADITYA-L1 is an internally occulted coronagraph with mirror as its primary objective element. It has a field of view (FOV) starting from 1.05 R⊙– 3 R⊙. It will observe the corona in continuum centered at 5000 Å and will perform spectroscopic observations of inner corona in two visible (5303 Å and 7892 Å) and one infrared (10747 Å) wavelengths. VELC will be capable of observingthecorona with high spatial and temporal resolutions. We present an overview of the in…
