Space Plasma Physics Particles & Imaging Research Group

This is the Home Page for the University of Iowa, Department of Physics & Astronomy, Polar VIS Research Group led by Dr. Louis A. Frank. The research group is situated in Van Allen Hall on the University of Iowa Main Campus in Iowa City, Iowa, USA. One of the Group's responsibilities is dedicated to supporting the Visible Imaging System on board the Global Geospace Science's Polar spacecraft.

The main Web Home Page for the general research group's other projects including the Galileo (PLS), Dynamics Explorer - 1 (SAI), GeoTail (CPI), International Sun-Earth Explorer (LEPEDEA), and Interplanetary Monitoring Platform 8 (LEPEDEA) spacecraft projects are available at www-pi.physics.uiowa.edu.

Instrument Description

HTML Documentation for Polar VIS is currently available on-line. It can also be viewed in two other image formats TeX DVI and PostScript.

To see where the VIS (or any other Polar) instrument is located on the Polar spacecraft body, we have a sketch of the spacecraft with an instrument callout.

Current VIS Instrument Images, Temperatures and Status

The most recent VIS images, temperatures, and status are available via this server.
