Scientific paper

We report the design of an imager with 0.6-millirad angular resolution over an 8-deg field of view sampled with 39,500 pixels, yielding global auroral coherent imaging from above 6 R(E). High performance filters provide spectrally pure measurements of four key FUV features, with 10 exp -4 out-of-band rejection. Together with the solar blind intensified CCD detector, a net rejection of 10 exp -9 of all out-of-band emissions is achieved. The optical design comprises a three-mirror f/3 system which yields a noise equivalent sensitivity of 10 Rayleighs for a 37-sec frame rate. The instantaneous dynamic range is 1000 which can be windowed over a range of 10 exp 4.
