Stellar coronograph as an additional payload for the "Spektr-UF" space mission
Abstract
Space observatory "Spektr-UF" - is a multi-purpose orbital telescope of 1.7 m primary mirror diameter. The main tasks of the observatory are to obtain high-resolution spectra of cosmic objects and images of diffraction quality in the UV region (115-310 nm). To solve the second task, the Field Camera Unit (FCU) instrument is under construction. The device is described in a paper by Sichevskij et al. of this proceedings. Here we present the Stellar imaging coronograph which is planned to be installed into the payload of the mission as the third channel of FCU.
