A spectrometer which has observed the EUV solar spectrum from the first orbiting solar observatory (OSO-I) is described, and the results are summarized. The unique problems which had to be overcome are discussed, and the ideas and methods used to solve those problems are described. A novel detector carriage, scanning drive, and electrical cable to the carriage, among other items, were developed. The satellite, optics and detector, data coding, mechanical plan, lubrication, satellite environment, thermal balance, testing program, and data reduction are also described. The OSO-I was the first satellite with pointed instruments and tape recorders for data storage.
描述了一台从首个轨道太阳观测站(轨道太阳观测站-1,OSO-I)观测极紫外太阳光谱的光谱仪,并总结了结果。讨论了必须克服的独特问题,并描述了用于解决这些问题的思路和方法。开发了一种新颖的探测器托架、扫描驱动器以及连接到托架的电缆等。还描述了卫星、光学器件和探测器、数据编码、机械设计、润滑、卫星环境、热平衡、测试程序以及数据处理。OSO-I是第一颗配备有指向性仪器和用于数据存储的磁带记录器的卫星。
