2.0.2 spase://SMWG/Instrument/Hinode/SOT Solar Optical Telescope 2014-07-24T20:37:21Z The Solar Optical telescope on Hinode consists of a main 50cm aperture telescope and a CCD-based focal plane package. SOT is optimized for accurate measurement of the vector magnetic field in the photosphere and the dynamics of both the photosphere and chromosphere associated with the magnetic fields. SOT obtains diffraction-limited images (0.2-0.3") in the 388-668 nm range. Pointing stability is maintained at < 0.09" in 3 sigma. spase://SMWG/Person/Saku.Tsuneta PrincipalInvestigator NAOJ Hinode site http://hinode.nao.ac.jp/index_e.shtml National Astronomical Observatory of Japan web site for Hinode mission, instruments, etc. Imager solar Optical Telescope spase://SMWG/Observatory/Hinode
