SSB/S

[Source: National Space Science Data Center, http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/experimentDisplay.do?id=1983-113A-08 ] The primary purpose of the X-ray detector, SSB/S, was to detect nuclear debris from nuclear detonations. The instrument consisted of three sensors. Two of the sensors were arrays of four 1-cm-diameter CdTe detectors which sensed X rays in the four energy bands >45 keV, >75 keV, >115 keV, and >165 keV. The third sensor was a NaI detector which sensed scintillation. Rotating the sensor assembly caused all three sensors to scan across the ground track.
