The GOSSIP project tackles the challenge of inverting highly sparse Fourier data by developing greedy algorithms to optimally select sampling points. This is crucial for compact solar X-ray telescopes, as the ESA’s STIX telescope, which can only capture a limited number of indirect measurements (visibilities) due to hardware constraints. A key mathematical aspect of the project is the analysis of how uncertainties in the sampling locations propagate through the regularized Fourier inversion process. We are also interested in studying and testing new approximation methods for other physical solar problems, such as the detection of coronal mass ejections.
