Solar X-Ray Spectrometer

Scientific paper

Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), an institute of Indian Space Research Organisation/Dept. of Space, Govt. of India, is a premier institute to pioneer space research programmes in India. PRL has vast experience in designing and developing rocket, balloon and satellite-borne experiments. PRL has state-of-the-art observatories for conducting research in the fields of solar physics, astrophysics and aeronomy. One of the current projects includes - "Solar X-ray Spectrometer (SoXS)" payload to be flown on GSAT-2 Indian mission to study the high spectral and temporal resolution X-ray spectra from solar flares. This mission is expected to fly in early 2002. We present SoXS payload description in detail along with a brief approach to extend simultaneous observations with SoXS experiment and ground-based observations in optical and radio wavebands. PRL is in a unique position to contribute positively to Solar Orbiter Mission in design and development of instrumentation for EUV imager and spectrometer (EUS) payload, and Energetic Particle Detector (EPD).
