Scientific paper

The EUV Grating Spectrograph (EGS) is one component of the Solar EUV Experiment (SEE) on the TIMED satellite. The EGS is a normal incidence spectrograph which measures the solar spectral irradiance from 26 to 195 nm at a resolution of 0.4 nm. It has been observing the Sun daily since TIMED normal operations began on January 22, 2002. Details of the irradiance calculation and early results will be presented. On February 8, 2002, a sounding rocket carrying the prototype EGS was launched from White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico. Results of this underflight calibration will also be presented, along with comparisons of the SEE EGS measurements with solar reference spectra and measurements by other instruments.
