Scientific paper

The Absolute Radiometric Measurements in Space (ARMS) project proposes the development of a new primary radiometric standard for use in space traceable to the SI system of units. The standard, the Cryogenic Solar Absolute Radiometer (CSAR) will be capable of measuring the total irradiance of the Sun with an uncertainty of 0.01 percent, and a resolution of 0.001 percent, more than a factor ten improvement over existing instruments. ARMS was submitted to ESA in response to a call for opportunities for Columbus precursor flights and CSAR is currently on the provisional payload of Eureca 3.
