Early HMI Magnetic Field Observations
Abstract
HMI, the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager
on SDO is producing a synoptic series of
full-disk arc-second magnetograms.
Longitudinal field is determined every 45s
and vector inversions computed every 12
minutes in patches.
Higher level products will be produced
including tracked AR patches, synchronic
frames, NLFFF and MHD coronal field
models, and photospheric flow maps
Some quick-look products are available in
minutes for space weather purposes.
Early HMI Magnetic Field Observations
HMI Magnetic Field Observables
• Line-of-sight magnetic field is computed from
Doppler velocity in two polarizations, as for MDI.
• Vector Field is computed from Stokes
parameters derived from an independent set of
polarized filtergrams.
• The possibility of combining the two cameras is
being explored to improve sensitivity.
• The nominal line-of-sight cadence is 45
seconds. The basic vector field cadence is 90s
or 135 seconds.
Early HMI Magnetic Field Observations
HMI Magnetic Field Observables
• Vector field data products are the following
quantities, uncertainties on each, and
some covariances:
– |B| - total flux
– Filling factor (where possible)
– Inclination (gamma) to the line of sight
– Azimuth (phi) CCW relative to ‘up’ on the
CCD camera
– Magnetic line-of sight velocity
• Data will be exported in a variety of
coordinate systems: [Bx,By,Bz],
[B_total,gamma,phi], and [Br,Btheta,Bphi]
Early HMI Magnetic Field Observations
Magnetic Processing Scheduling
There are four schedules for Magnetic Field data processing
•
Quick Look/Near Real Time
– Routine processing of some data available within minutes of
observation
•
Standard
– Routinely completed for all data on regular cadence (e.g.
Vector B) after about 25 hours.
•
On Demand
– Completed for small fraction of data when interesting things
happen or whenever requested by a qualified user (HiRes
MHD time series for a big flare & CME campaign
•
On Request
– Products, such as high-resolution time series of MHD model
solutions, will be generated as resources allow. Completed
when system resources allow

HMI Space Weather and Quick-Look Browsing Products
•
HMI space weather and browse products can be computed in near real time from quick look data.
They may be used for space weather forecasting or real time monitoring and display. They should
not be used for scientific analysis, except perhaps to compare the quality of preliminary and
definitive products.
•
HMI space weather and quick-look products will be coordinated with the Heliophysics Events
Knowledge Base. These data products will complement the AIA Quick Look Browse Products
•
Proposed Space Weather Product LIST – Comments welcome! This list is preliminary and is not a
commitment. Each product must have a prospective user.
