Abstract

China’s first comprehensive solar physics mission, the Advanced Space-based Solar Observatory (ASO-S), was successfully launched on 9 October 2022. The mission focuses on exploring the connections between the solar magnetic field, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). ASO-S carries three instruments: the Full-disk solar vector MagnetoGraph (FMG), the solar Hard X-ray Imager (HXI), and the Lyman-alpha Solar Telescope (LST). The unique combination of these payloads allows simultaneous observations of the vector magnetic field of the full Sun, high-energy imaging spectroscopy of solar flares, and formation and evolution of CMEs on the disk and in the inner corona. This topical collection, along with other publications, provides an overview of ASO-S’s achievements over the first one and a half years, including mission validation, payload calibration, data flow description, analysis software demonstration, and numerous investigations based on ASO-S observed data. We hope this collection will be valuable for researchers seeking to understand the mission or utilize the data.

ASO-S任务：飞行性能和初步结果

中国首个综合太阳物理任务——先进天基太阳天文台（ASO-S）于2022年10月9日成功发射。这次任务的重点是探索太阳磁场、太阳耀斑和日冕物质抛射（cme）之间的联系。ASO-S携带三种仪器：全圆盘太阳矢量磁力计（FMG）、太阳硬x射线成像仪（HXI）和莱曼-阿尔法太阳望远镜（LST）。这些有效载荷的独特组合可以同时观测整个太阳的矢量磁场，太阳耀斑的高能成像光谱，以及日冕和日冕内部日冕上cme的形成和演化。这个专题集合和其他出版物一起，概述了ASO-S在头一年半的成就，包括任务验证、有效载荷校准、数据流描述、分析软件演示，以及基于ASO-S观测数据的大量调查。我们希望这些收集对研究人员了解任务或利用数据有价值。

期刊介绍： Solar Physics was founded in 1967 and is the principal journal for the publication of the results of fundamental research on the Sun. The journal treats all aspects of solar physics, ranging from the internal structure of the Sun and its evolution to the outer corona and solar wind in interplanetary space. Papers on solar-terrestrial physics and on stellar research are also published when their results have a direct bearing on our understanding of the Sun.
