内容記述 | The AXAF CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) is currently being defined as a possible focal plane instrument to be flown on the Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility (AXAF). The imaging spectrometer consists of an array of charge coupled devices (CCD's) to be placed at the focus of the AXAF mirrors. The array will provide high angular resolution (0.5 arc seconds), moderate spectral resolution (150 eV) over the energy range 0.1 to 10 keV, temporal resolution down to 60 microseconds, and single photon quantum detection efficiencies of up to 90 percent. X-ray sensitivity for a point source exceeds 10 to the -15th ergs/sq cm sec for a 10 to the 5th sec exposure. When used in conjunction with the objective gratings, the array will yield wavelength resolution of up to 200. |
