Element Abundances in the Upper Atmospheres of the Sun and Stars: Update of Observational Results

Feldman, U.; Laming, J. M.

We review observational progress in the determination of element abundances in the solar corona, largely due to the new capabilities offered by the instrumentation on the SOHO satellite. Many new facets to coronal abundance anomalies with respect to the photosphere are revealed. This includes new results on the FIP (First Ionization Potential) Eff…
