    Other Research Goals: The solar data obtained by the telescopes of our observatory are opened to the world through our website http://kwasan.kyoto-u.ac.jp/observation/data/index_en.html to the world. From the website, anyone can get real time images of the Sun in H-alpha. Pre-processed image data will also be opened in due course.
