全球首台中红外波段太阳磁场专用观测设备正式启用

Core Points - The National Astronomical Observatories of China has officially launched the world's first mid-infrared solar magnetic field measurement system, the AIMS telescope, which has passed national acceptance [1] - The AIMS telescope fills a significant gap in international mid-infrared solar magnetic field observation [1] - The telescope was constructed at the D observation platform in the Qaidam Basin, Qinghai, at an altitude of 4000 meters, and has achieved multiple key technological breakthroughs since its development began in 2015 [1] - The research team has successfully measured the solar magnetic field using a 12.3-micron mid-infrared band, improving measurement accuracy to better than 10 Gauss, addressing a century-old bottleneck in solar magnetic field measurement [1]
