| Session Description | Hinode, which is one of the latest solar observational satellite launched on September 2006, has been successfully operated for the last two years and made many new discoveries for the solar dynamics. In particular, the highly resolved observations with the three telescopes aboard Hinode (SOT, XRT, and EIS) have greatly advanced our understanding of the solar magnetohydrodynamic activities in multiple layers from photosphere to the corona. This session will provide a forum to summarize the recent progress in solar study, and to discuss the future plans of new solar observations beyond Hinode's era. The session consists of several invited review talks on different issues as well as contributed papers on any topics relating to solar dynamics. Also the modeling and theoretical studies on the sun are highly welcome. |
