The origin of the activity in the solar corona is a long-standing problem in solar physics. Recent satellite observations, such as Hinode, Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS), show the detail characteristics of the solar atmosphere and try to reveal the energy transfer from the photosphere to the corona through the magnetic fields and its energy conversion by various processes. However, quantitative estimation of energy transfer along the magnetic field is not enough. There are mainly two reason why it is difficult to observe the energy transfer from photosphere to corona; 1) spatial resolution gap between photosphere (a few 0.1 arcsec) and corona (a few arcsec), 2) lack in temperature coverage. Furthermore, there is not enough observational knowledge of the physical parameters in the energy dissipation region. There are mainly three reason why it is difficult to observe in the vicinity of the energy dissipation region; 1) small spatial scale, 2) short time scale, 3) low emission. It is generally believed that the energy dissipation occurs in the very small scale and its duration is very short (10 second). Further, the density in the dissipation region might be very low. Therefore, the high spatial and temporal resolution UV/EUV spectroscopic observation with wide temperature coverage is crucial to estimate the energy transport from photosphere to corona quantitatively and diagnose the plasma dynamics in the vicinity of the energy dissipation region. Main Science Target for the telescope is quantitative estimation for the energy transfer from the photosphere to the corona, and clarification of the plasma dynamics in the vicinity of the energy dissipation region, where is the key region for coronal heating, solar wind acceleration, and/or solar flare, by the high spatial and temporal resolution UV/EUV spectroscopy.
