Scientific paper

The ultraviolet waveband is the only one in which the entire outer solar atmosphere, forming the chromosphere to the corona, can be accessed. After describing the recent solar ultraviolet instrumentation some key problems in ultraviolet observations are reviewed, such as the rapid loss of the sensitivity due to the contamination with hydrocarbons, the low efficiency of normal incidence optics in the ultraviolet region and the necessity and difficulties in changing detector technologies. Also mentioned are the recent observational results in the ultraviolet and the information inferred from about the coronal and chromospheric heating, the acceleration of the solar wind, the downflows over sunspot umbrae, the onset of the solar flares and their energy transport.
