The Michelson Doppler Imager for SoHO

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

The Michelson Doppler Imager is an instrument for doing helioseismology from Lagrangian point between the Earth and Sun. It is a full sun imager that includes 12 cm refractor, a high speed image stabilization system, a narrowband filter system (Ni 6768 angstroms), and a 1024 × 1024 CCD detector. One hundred milliangstrom spectral analysis is provided by a combination of dielectric filters, a fixed Lyot filter, and a pair of tunable solid Michelson interferometers.
