| Abstract: | An Image Drift Compensation System has been designed for a solar pointed space borne telescope and has performed successfully on two sounding rocket flights, yielding new scientific results. The system employs limb-sensing photodiodes at the telescope focal plane and provides drift compensation to better than 0.1 arc sec. A variation of the system will be used on the Shuttle/Spacelab 2 flight of the High Resolution Telescope and Spectrograph (HRTS) Instrument.Originally submitted to the journalSpace Science Instrumentation. |
