EIT Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope.  Instrument on the SOlar Heliospheric Observer.  EIT continuously observes the full disk Sun at 17.1 nm, 19.5 nm, 28.4 nm, and 30.4 nm. Ryan McGranaghan 2023.04.16
Eitelite No definition provided Ryan McGranaghan 2023.04.16
EITWave A wave in the corona of the Sun which produceshock waves on the Sun's chromosphere (Moreton Waves). EIT Waves areproduced by large solar flare and expand outward at about 1,000 km/s. Itusually appears as a slowly moving diffuse arc of brightening in H-alpha,and may travel for several hundred thousand km. Ryan McGranaghan 2023.04.16
