Scientific paper

The status and further development as well as first calibration of the CELIAS experiment on SOHO is presented. CELIAS is designed to measure the mass, ionic charge, and energy of low and high speed solar wind of suprathermal ions and of low energy flare particles. Through analysis of the elemental and isotopic abundances (the ionic charge state and velocity distributions of ions originating on the solar atmosphere), the investigation focuses on studying the plasma processes in various temporal and spatial scales in the solar chromosphere, transition zone, and corona. Additionally, the CELIAS experiment includes the Solar EUV Monitor (SEM). This unit, which consists of an EUV transmission grating spectrometer and three isolated silicon photodiodes as detectors, is described. The three mass and charge discriminating sensors based on the time of flight technique are also described.
