XRS

The XRS is an X-ray telescope that measures solar X-ray flux in two bands of 0.05 - 0.3 nm and 0.1- 0.8 nm. The XRS assembly consists of a telescope collimator, sweeper magnet assembly, dual ion chamber and preamplifier subassemblies. Two ion chambers detect X-rays, one chamber for each spectral range. The detector output signals are processed by separate electronic channels that have a single range in each band, with the >5 decade dynamic range logarithmically compressed into a 15 bit data word. Data transmitted through the spacecraft PCM telemetry permit real time ground determination of the solar X-ray emission in the two spectral bands. (en)
