[Loops] EM loci

[Klimchuk, James A. (GSFC-6710)]

Friends,

     The EM loci technique is frequently used to access whether a plasma is isothermal.  The attached paper addresses the uncertainty in this technique and proposes a way to determine the range of thermal distribution widths that are consistent with a set of emission line data.

Cheers,
Jim
