Scientific paper

The CIRRIS-1A spectroradiometer system is designed to obtain spectral and spatial airglow data on the shuttle platform over a global extent. The sensor system includes a Michelson interferometer which exhibits NER of 2 x 10 to the -13th W/sq cm sr sq rt Hz; and at a resolution of 0.964/cm (scan time 9.1 s) exhibits NESR of 7 x 10 to the -14th W/sq cm sr/cm. The entire optical subsystem, silicon-arsenic focal-plane, off-axis high-rejection telescope, and removable cover are cooled below 20 K. The measured performance is shown to agree with theory to within a few percent.
