Scientific paper

The objective of Skylab corollary experiment S020 was to obtain through the availability of long exposure times more complete information than was then available on the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) and soft X-ray spectrum of the sun in the 10-200-A range. The instrument was a small grazing-incidence spectrograph with photographic recording. Use was made of a split-ruled grating that combined 1200- and 2400-l/mm rulings to double the spectral coverage of the instrument and to aid in the measurement of wavelengths and order sorting. Useful spectra were obtained, but the sensitivity of the instrument was greatly reduced, probably because of contamination resulting from leakage of the fluid used in the spacecraft cooling system.
