• 0.3Å Bandpass:

• This narrow bandpass filter will provide exceptionally high contrast views of specific solar features, such as prominences and filaments.
• It may reveal fine details within solar prominences and filaments, including intricate structures and dynamics.

• 0.4Å Bandpass:

• Similar to the 0.3Å bandpass, this filter will offer high contrast views of solar prominences and filaments.
• It will reveal detailed structures within prominences and filaments, although possibly with slightly less contrast and resolution compared to the narrower bandpass filters.

• 0.5Å Bandpass:

• This bandpass filter strikes a balance between high contrast and broader views of solar features.
• It will provide good visibility of prominences, filaments, and other surface details, offering a compromise between fine detail and overall view.

• 0.6Å Bandpass:

• With a slightly wider bandpass, this filter will offer broader views of solar features with reduced contrast compared to narrower bandpass filters.
• It may still reveal prominences, filaments, and surface details, but with less fine detail and contrast compared to narrower bandpass filters.

• 0.7Å Bandpass:

• This broader bandpass filter will provide a wide view of solar features with reduced contrast and detail compared to narrower bandpass filters.
• It may offer a good overview of prominences, filaments, and surface features, but fine details may be less visible compared to narrower bandpass filters.

Prominences emerge as delicate, fine-lined structures, offering researchers and enthusiasts an unparalleled view of solar phenomena.
