Description

Metis is the coronagraph on board Solar Orbiter. It provides images of the full corona in an annular FoV from 1.7 to 3 degrees, in the broadband linearly polarised light and in the narrowband UV hydrogen Lyman-alpha line. Metis is successfully operating both during the remote sensing windows and throughout the full orbit in a synoptic mode of acquisition. A summary of its performance are given, included the known issues, and highlights on the major science results.
