  • Abstract
    A 180°-focussing magnetic analyzer for OV1-13 is described. It has an array of eight solid-state detectors in the focal plane and uses upper level discrimination to reject analysis of penetrating protons. Fields of view vary from 16° × 9° (Channel 1) to 4° × 9° (Channel 8), and energy bin-widths from 26% to 13%, Channel 2 to 8. A similar instrument is giving good data from OV1-9.
