Description
<b>GAIA-DEM</b><br/>
GAIA-DEM is a database of Differential Emission Measure (DEM) maps. The DEM is a
measure of the thermal structure of the coronal plasma, representing the quantity of
light emitting plasma along the line of sight, at different temperatures. In GAIA-DEM, the
DEM is modelled by a specific function of temperature, namely a Gaussian of the
logarithm of electron temperature. GAIA-DEM maps are then maps of the DEM
maximum temperature, of the DEM integral (total Emission Measure), and DEM width (in
temperature). These maps are obtained by inversion from the SDO/AIA EUV images in 6
coronal channels (9.4, 13.1, 17.1, 19.3, 21.1, and 33.5 nm). In addition, maps of the χ²
for the inversion are provided.<br/>
GAIA-DEM is available from a specific interface at
<a href="http://medoc-dem.ias.u-psud.fr/">http://medoc-dem.ias.u-psud.fr</a>, as
well as part of the generic MEDOC interface which is currently located at
<a href="https://idoc-medoc.ias.u-psud.fr/">https://idoc-medoc.ias.u-psud.fr</a>.
These interfaces are based on the CNES SiTools2 framework.
GAIA-DEM is also available from IDL and Python scripts, using a specialization of the
generic SiTools2 IDL and Python clients developed by MEDOC.
