Abstract

The Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI), in collaboration with the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), has been developing a diagnostic coronagraph to be deployed in 2023 on the International Space Station (ISS). The mission is known as “Coronal Diagnostic Experiment (CODEX)”, which is designed to obtain simultaneous measurements of the electron density, temperature, and velocity in the 2.5- to 10-Rs range by using multiple filters. The coronagraph will be installed and operated on the ISS to understand the physical conditions in the solar wind acceleration region and to enable and validate the next generation space weather models.
