Abstract
Abstract The Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on Hinode produces high resolution spectra that can be combined via rasters into monochromatic images of solar structures, such as active regions. Electron temperature and density maps of the structures can be obtained by imaging the structures in different spectral lines with ratios sensitive to either temperature or density. Doppler maps and ion temperature maps can be made from spectral line wavelengths and profiles, respectively. In this paper we discuss coronal temperature and density distributions within an active region, illustrating the power of EIS for solar plasma diagnostics.
