Uzzo ------------ UVCS Activity: Coronal Hole Weekly Study for 15-21 December 2009 -------------- SOHO Activity: -------------- EOF Staff: J. Kohl: Lead Scientist ---------- M. Uzzo: Commander, Planner Command file: 09.12.14.13:12:35.cmd.log Activity: --------- 1) OVI Detector Dark Rate Diagnostic Sequence: OVI_dark_chk.tcl SCI_SPEC: Determine Dark count rate for OVI detector. Instrument rolled to coronal hole, 5.0 Ro with 0.8 mm exposed mirror. Script engages OVI filter and then disengages it at end.

Goal is to measure the properties of a polar coronal hole. In particular we are interested in the coronal conditions (intensities and line widths for HI Ly-alpha and OVI 1032/1037) as a function of height and latitude. We will compare these properties with the ones found in non-polar coronal holes.
