Measurements and Applications
To measure disk-integrated solar X-ray and EUV fluxes. Assemblage of two channels in the X-ray ranges 0.05-0.3 nm and 0.1-0.8 nm; and five channels in the EUV ranges around 10 nm, 30 nm, 60 nm, 80 nm and 126 nm [including Fe-XV at 28.4 nm, He-II at 30.4 nm and H-Lyman-alpha at 121.6 nm]
