HINODE - 12 THE MANY SUNS

The IAA-CSIC is organizing the Hinode-12 Science Meeting, to be held in Granada from 10-13 September 2018. This meeting will bring together scientists from Japan, the US, and Europe to discuss recent advances in solar physics based on observations by Hinode, other space assets and ground-based telescopes. Hinode is an active mission devoted to the study of the Sun. Launched in 2006, it is still the reference mission for high-resolution measurements of the solar atmosphere, specializing in visible spectropolarimetry, EUV spectroscopy and X-ray imaging. Its unique capabilities remain unsurpassed and explain the very high, sustained scientific return of the mission. Hinode science meetings are organized yearly to bring together the Hinode, IRIS and ground-based community to discuss recent results and plan coordinated observations. The Hinode-12 meeting will be the sixth of the series to be held in Europe, following Hinode 1 in Dublin (2007), Hinode-4 in Palermo (2010), Hinode 6 in St. Andrews (2012) and Hinode 9 in Belfast (2015).
