Uzzo: Lead Scientist ---------- M. Uzzo: Commander, Planner R. Wu Command file: 09.01.05.16:00:19.cmd.log Activity: --------- 1) Streamer Study OVI Observations Sequence: 08.12_StrProfOVI.tcl, sw = 17 SCI_SPEC: A comprehensive study of several streamer properties including the outflow velocities, abundances, electron densities and temperatures. The spatial distribution of these physical properties are analyzed at multiple heights within several streamers examined over the course of the solar cycle.
