Abstract:
The IBIS Interferometric BIdimensional Spectrometer, disassembled from the US Dunn Solar Telescope in 2019, is undergoing a significant hardware and software upgrade in light of its new installation as IBIS 2.0 in the Canary Islands.
We present the instrumental characteristics and the design of the refurbished instrument. IBIS 2.0 will allow acquiring new spectropolarimetric observations of the solar atmosphere at high spatial, spectral and temporal resolution in coordination with telescopes onboard the Solar Orbiter, Bepi-Colombo, and SOLAR-C missions and other ground-based instruments. We also describe the future steps towards the operation of IBIS 2.0 as a key resource for the Space Weather science.
