Scientific paper

The Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS) will provide spectroscopic observations of the solar corona out to 10 solar radii from Sun center. This capability is expected to expand greatly the number of plasma parameters that can be specified by remote sensing techniques. The UVCS plasma diagnostic techniques are expected to provide a sufficient number of empirically derived parameters to significantly constrain theories of solar wind acceleration, coronal heating, and solar wind composition. The measured line profiles and intensities are sensitive to random velocity distributions, densities of coronal protons, electrons, and ions.
