InstrumentHinodeEIS

class synthesizAR.instruments.hinode.InstrumentHinodeEIS(observing_time, observer, lines, **kwargs)

Bases: InstrumentBase

Instrument object for computing intensities as observed by the EUV Imaging Spectrometer onboard _Hinode_.

This instrument class produces an intensity map per timestep in physical units, i.e. \(erg cm^{-2} s^{-1} sr^{-1}\). It does not include a wavelength dimension. The modeled intensity should be interpreted as the peak intensity of the line profile.

Parameters:

• observing_time (Quantity) – Observing time range

• observer (SkyCoord) – Observer location

• lines (list) – List of tuples specifying the EIS lines to synthesize. Each entry should be a tuple of strings where the first entry is the line ID and the second is the transition, e.g. ('S XIII 256.686', '2s 2p 1P1 -- 2s2 1S0'). It is best if the line IDs are consistent with those used by the EIS software.

Methods Documentation

static build_raster_map(maps)

Build a single map from a series of per-exposure maps.

Parameters:

maps (list or MapSequence)

static calculate_intensity_kernel(loop, channel, **kwargs)

get_header(*args, **kwargs)

Create the FITS header for a given channel.

Parameters:

• ref_coord (SkyCoord) – Reference coordinate coincident with the center of the field of view

• n_pixels (Quantity) – Pixel extent in the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) direction

• channel (ChannelBase, optional)
