内容記述 | A high-resolution Bent Crystal Spectrometer (BCS) which provides simultaneous and continuous time coverage of a range of wavelengths is described; its application to spectral studies of solar X-ray emission is discussed. Design of the BCS and its accompanying position-sensitive detector is considered. Calibrations of the crystal curvature, the angle between a crystal reference plane and the collimator axis, and the position response of the position-sensitive proportional counter in determining absolute wavelengths are also mentioned. An active solar region spectrum obtained during an airborne BCS test is compared to wavelength data derived from theory or previous experiments, and excellent agreement is found. Specifications for a BCS system to be used in the Solar Maximum Mission satellite of 1979 are given. |
