| 内容記述 | Techniques for measuring, modeling, and limiting the effluent contamination of external spacecraft and instrument surfaces are reviewed, with an emphasis on their application to the Space Station. The major factors addressed by contamination studies are outlined; typical contamination sources are characterized; the critical measurement parameters are defined (molecular column density, background spectral intensity from UV to IR, particle size and velocity distribution, molecular deposition on ambient and cryogenic surfaces, molecular return flux for gaseous species, particulate deposition on surfaces, and optical-surface degradation); and measurement instrumentation is described. Contamination limits for quiescent operation periods of the Space Station are proposed, including column density 10 to the 11th/sq cm for H2O + CO2, 10 to the 13th/sq cm for O2 + N2, and 10 to the 10th/sq cm for other species; particle release no greater than 15-micron particle/orbit/0.00001 sr FOV for a 1-m telescope, and surface deposition 4 pg/sq cm sec for 298-K surfaces and 10 pg/sq cm sec for 4-K surfaces. |
