Bragg spectroscopy from CORONAS-F
Abstract
There are dozen instruments successfully operating aboard the solar satellite CORONAS-F, which was launched in the summer of 2001. Among them are two (Polish-led) Bragg crystal spectrometers - RESIK and Diogeness - recording solar flare and active region spectra. A short description of the CORONAS-F satellite operation is presented together with that of the two Polish spectrometers, stressing their unique characteristics. The average spectra have been derived and shown here, covering the wavelength range between 3 Å and 7 Å. Future steps in the analysis of the large database collected are outlined.
