Scientific paper

The scientific objectives of Solar Orbiter rely ubiquitously on EUI, its suite of solar atmosphere imaging telescopes. In the configuration discussed here, EUI includes three co-aligned High Resolution Imagers (HRI) and one Full Sun Imager (FSI). FSI and two HRIs observe in extreme ultraviolet passbands, dominated by coronal emission. Another HRI is designed for the hydrogen Lyman-alpha radiation in the far UV, imaging the Chromosphere and the lower Transition Region. The current EUI design and some of its development challenges are highlighted. EUI profits from co-rotation phases, solar proximity and departure from the ecliptic. In synergy with the other S.O. payload, EUI probes the dynamics of the solar atmosphere, provides context data for all investigations and helps to link in-situ and remote-sensing observations. In short, it serves all four top-level goals of the mission. For these reasons, the EUI suite is keenly anticipated in the European scientific community and beyond.
