Scientific paper

The main characteristics of the PENGUIN-M instrument are given. The instrument has been operating aboard the CORONAS-PHOTON spacecraft (SC) launched into orbit on January 30, 2009. The instrument includes the PENGUIN-MD detector unit (PMD) and the PENGUIN-ME electronic unit (PMD). The purpose of the experiment is to measure the degree of linear polarization of X-ray radiation from solar flares in the energy range of 20-150 keV and to obtain energy spectra of X-ray radiation from solar flares in the energy range of 2-500 keV. The paper describes the instrument, calibration procedure, and in-flight adjustment, and contains the first results of measurements.
