8th RHESSI Workshop
Potsdam, Germany, 2-6 September 2008
Working groups
Working Group 1: Conversion of RHESSI Data into "Scientifically Useful" forms (e.g., photon spectra, electron images, etc.)
team leader: Marina Battaglia (ETH, Zurich)local team support: Hakan Önel (AIP)
Summary report: pdf
Working Group 2: Flares through Microflares - a Critique of the "Standard Models"
team leader: Iain Hannah (University of Glasgow)local team support: Rossitsa Miteva (AIP)
Summary report: pdf
Working Group 3: Coronal X-ray and Gamma-ray Sources, and their relation to CMEs and SEPs
team leader: Alexander Warmuth (AIP)local team support: Christian Vocks (AIP)
This group covers a rather broad range of topics - in some sense, this is the successor of the former "Multiwavelength" group. We will discuss the physical characteristics of HXR (both thermal and nonthermal) and gamma-ray sources, their evolution and their relation to signatures in other spectral ranges. In this respect, we will consider both flare signatures and associated phenomena such as CMEs, SEPs and radio bursts. We expect that such a diverse selection of observations will help us to better understand the physics of solar eruptions.
