Science Lessons Learned from TESIS and their Relevance to SWAP V. Slemzin, LPI PROBA 2 SWT, La Roche, 14 June 2010

TESIS scientific team (LPI): S. Kuzin, S. Bogachev, S. Shestov, V. Slemzin, A. Ulyanov, A. Reva CORONAS-Photon was launched on January 31, 2009 The projected time of the mission was 2 years The flight was terminated after 9 months in November 2009 because of problems with the satellite power system.

TESIS lessons The scientific program was not fulfilled because the mission was terminated in November 2009 due to failure of the satellite power system. Total volume of information: 700 Gb, 150000 images. In 2009 the solar activity was unexpectedly low. Two high temperature channels did not provide valuable data (Mg, 132 A) At very low solar activity there are many specific phenomena as global and small scale: eruption of giant prominences, a lot of bright EUV points, rich magnetic structure of the inner corona, reconnection of closed structures with open interplanetary lines. The 171 A band is very informative to study the inner corona (T ~ 1-2 MK) in global and local scales. Perspectives: EUV imaging with resolution < 1” and cadence of 1 s (“Arka” project) Level 1 TESIS data are available at http://www.tesis.lebedev.ru/en/data_access.html
