Scientific paper

The scientific aim of the LITE mission is to carry out the first set of very high spatial resolution (0.2 arc sec), wide field of view (10 arc minute), pointed astronomical observations in several narrow wavelength bands in the far ultraviolet region of the spectrum (900-1600 A). Two wavelength regions in the far UV were chosen to be of prime scientific importance for the LITE mission: 1030A and 1240A. It was therefore decided to design and test novel, narrow band, high reflectance multilayer filters for these observations.
