  3. Current STELab IPS Heliospheric Analyses New STELab IPS array at Toyokawa - photo February 17, 2007 (array now operates well – year-round operation)

  4. Let’s start with what we observe and analyze DATA IPS line-of-sight response STELab IPS array near Mt. Fuji STELab IPS array systems

  5. Density Turbulence • Scintillation index, m, is a measure of level of turbulence • Normalized Scintillation index, g = m(R) / <m(R)> • g > 1  enhancement in Ne • g  1  ambient level of Ne • g < 1  rarefaction in Ne (CourtesyofP.K.Manoharan) A scintillation enhancement with respect to the ambient wind identifies the presence of a region of increased turbulence/density and a possible CME along the line-of-sight to the radio source.

  41. Summary: a) IPS allows derivation of global velocity, and through conversion of g-level to density – global densities, at low resolution from STELab data, including for CMEs. b) SMEI allows derivation of global densities including that from CMEs at high spatial and temporal resolution using Thomson-scattering brightness. c) The IPS analysis run in near real-time allows a low- resolution forecast of velocity and density all the time at the inner planets – right now! Wish List – higher resolution, dedicated calibrated systems, greater Earth longitude coverage or a space- based system. A breakthrough to determine magnetic field remotely.
