Abstract:
The work performed included the refurbishment and calibration of two instrument sets previously fabricated. It also included the design and fabrication of three signal conditioners and the subsequent integration of the instruments into the OVI-13 spacecraft which is providing data on the energy spectra and angular distributions of trapped electrons in the magnetosphere, over a wide energy and dynamic range. The instruments refurbished and calibrated consisted of two flight space DCDC converters, two each of an electrostatic analyzer ESA, magnetic analyzer e-MA, scintillation spectrometer e-S, solid state spectrometers p-SS1 and p-SS2, range-energy spectrometer p-RE, geiger counter GC and programmable high voltage supply PHVS. Handbooks of alignment and calibration data were prepared and submitted with the delivery of the instruments. Author
