This is the last of three papers describing an `absolute' calibration of the GONG magnetograph using and end-to-end simulation of its measurement process. The simulation begins with a MURaM 3D MHD datacube and ends with a `synthetic…

This report provides a brief summary of the properties of new cameras selected for NSF's Global Oscillations Network Group (GONG) facilities operated by the NSO Integrated Synoptic Program (NISP). These camera replacements are part of a…

This is the first of three papers describing an `absolute' calibration of the GONG magnetograph using an end-to-end simulation of its measurement process. The input to this simulation is a MURaM 3D MHD photospheric simulation and the output…

In the case of spatially-revolved helioseismic data (such as MDI, GONG, HMI), the usual mode-fitting analysis consists of fitting the 2l+1 individual m-spectra of a given multiplet (n, l) either individually or simultaneously. Such fitting…

In order to take full advantage of the long time series collected by the GONG and MDI helioseismic projects, we present here an adaptation of the rotation-corrected $m$-averaged spectrum technique in order to observe low radial-order solar…

Magnetic field sensors with high sensitivity and spatial resolution have profoundly impacted diverse applications ranging from geo-positioning and navigation to medical imaging, materials science, and space exploration. However, the use of…

In a previous study, Huang et al. (2023) used the Alfven Wave Solar atmosphere Model (AWSoM), one of the widely used solar wind models in the community, driven by ADAPT-GONG magnetograms to simulate the solar wind in the last solar cycle…

The GOLFNG (Global Oscillations at Low Frequency New Generation) instrument is devoted to the search for solar gravity and acoustic modes, and also chromospheric modes from space. This instrument which is a successor to GOLF/SOHO will…

Stellar Oscillations Network Group (SONG) is an initiative aimed at designing and building a network of 1m-class telescopes dedicated to asteroseismology and planet hunting. SONG will have 8 identical telescope nodes each equipped with a…

Ring resonators provide a means of filtering specific wavelengths from a waveguide, and optionally dropping the filtered wavelengths into a second waveguide. Both of these features are potentially useful for astronomical instruments. In…

Aging GONG second generation cameras (Silicon Mountain Design(TM) cameras) were planned to be replaced after their long service of more than a decade. This prompted a market-wide search for a potential replacement detector to meet the GONG…

We demonstrate an all-optical method for manipulating the magnetization in a 1-mm YIG (yttrium-iron-garnet) sphere placed in a $\sim0.17\,$T uniform magnetic field. An harmonic of the frequency comb delivered by a multi-GHz infrared laser…

Long-term synoptic observations of the Sun are critical for advancing our understanding of Sun as an astrophysical object, understanding the solar irradiance and its role in solar-terrestrial climate, for developing predictive capabilities…

We used the m-averaged spectrum technique ("collapsogram") to extract the low-frequency solar p-mode parameters of low- and intermediate-angular degrees (l \leq 35) in long time series of GONG and MDI observations. Rotational splittings and…

While polarisation sensing is vital in many areas of research, with applications spanning from microscopy to aerospace, traditional approaches are limited by method-related error amplification or accumulation, placing fundamental…
