内容記述 | I would like to discuss a topic that has affected many previous white-light coronagraphs as well as the HI1 instruments on STEREO. By design, all of these instruments are extremely sensitive to very faint sources including, unfortunately, those generated by scattering from flakes of multi-layer insulation (MLI) that has been shed by the spacecraft. We will describe a rich history of these MLI debris sightings, and we note that engineering considerations are required to minimize these deleterious effects in the future. |
