Scientific paper

The Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on the Solar Dynamic Observatory scheduled to launch in 2008 will provide an unprecedented quantity of information about the solar corona at rapid cadence in 6 EUV channels. We discuss the study of coronal loops through differential emission measure (DEM) analysis of coronal plasma using mock AIA observations. We select a loop structure in the coronal model and evaluate various DEM estimation methods (including background subtraction) against the known loop properties. We find that coronal loops can be successfully identified by their DEM signatures. Such signatures provide observational data essential to furthering our understanding of hot coronal plasmas.
