An instrument to measure the solar spectrum from 170 to 3200 nm on board Spacelab.
Abstract
This instrument, at the present time in development, will fly on board Spacelab I in May 1983. Other flights are foreseen during the following missions. This instrument is composed by three double monochromators covering the range 170 to 3200 nm. The spectrometers have band-passes of 1 nm up to 900 nm and 20 nm from 850 to 3200 nm with an accuracy 10−2 nm. Calibration lamps are included in the instrument to monitor any change of its sensitivity and wavelength scale.
