Description

X-ray observations of the solar corona have been undertaken in Solar Physics Division of Space Research Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences (SRC-PAS) in Wroclaw, Poland for more than four decades. A review of SRC-PAS satellite solar experiments and their measurements is shown with a particular focus on the latest ones. Various types of gaseous and solid state detectors used in space X-ray instrumentation are discussed. Possible applications of Micro Pattern Gaseous Detectors in further space experiments for solar X-ray observations are outlined.
