The Astrophysical Observatory's initial, primary purpose was to "record the amount and character of the Sun's heat". [3] Charles Greeley Abbot was named SAO's first director, and the observatory operated solar telescopes to take daily measurements of the Sun's intensity in different regions of the optical electromagnetic spectrum.
HMI observations will help establish the relationships between the internal dynamics and magnetic activity in order to understand solar variability and its effects. [ 33 ] In one example of the use of the MDI, Stanford scientists reported the detection of several sunspot regions in the deep interior of the Sun, 1–2 days before they appeared ...
