IFTSUV: an Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer in the UV Anne Millard, 3rd year PhD student, directed by P. Lemaire and J.-C. Vial
Scientific objectives • Add spectral information to 2D images Spectra of large structures / structures simultaneously on different positions on the Solar disk • Detection of explosive events and fast moving phenomenons • Speed distribution: horizontal (imaging) and vertical (spectroscopy) • Resolve small structures FSCSI 18-19 novembre 2004
Instrument specifications • Wavelength: H-Lyman (121.6 nm) • Spectral resolution: =0.02nm • Depending on the mission: • Orbit: heliosynchronous preferred (high TM rates) • FOV and spatial resolution: • Telescope 3 cm : Field: 01.1R33' x 33' , r = 1" high resolution • Telescope 30 cm : Field: 30" x 30", r = 0.1" very high resolution FSCSI 18-19 novembre 2004

IFTSUV mock-up Possibility to control the positionning in visible light while working in UV. FSCSI 18-19 novembre 2004
First result FSCSI 18-19 novembre 2004
Difficulties • Measurement of the OPD. • Maintaining the superpositions of the images at the focus on the whole scanning range. • Air flow and variation of environment parameters. • Synchronous management of all the electric systems involved in the instrument (detection, control, command) FSCSI 18-19 novembre 2004
Next steps • Search of the position OPD = 0 using a combinaison of 2 lasers • Set-up of the UV path ( sources and detector) FSCSI 18-19 novembre 2004
