  1. Sensor Technologies Radiation EffectsTask 04-053 Description: Benefits: Sensor technologies are clearly a major limiting factor in the ability of NASA to collect science in space. Issues such as hot pixels, cosmic ray rejection, degradation, lifetime, etc as well as a remote instruments for robotics applications have key challenges for meeting future science requirements. Engineering systems such as star trackers would also be critical users. Sensor technologies for visible and x-ray imaging such as charge coupled devices (CCDs) and active pixel sensors (APS) as well as those technologies being used in infrared arrays (IR) are of key interest for usage in science instruments and engineering systems such as star trackers. This task continues the highly successful task developing lessons learned on sensor technologies in order to provide NASA guidance for qualification/application of sensor technologies. CCDs are currently being documented. In addition, this task collaborates with technology developers (mostly DoD and industry-funded) exploring hardening methods and technology models. For this latter, NASA provides beam and data analysis in exchange for other organizations providing NRE and data collection (roughly 3:1 cost savings not including technology development costs). Deliverables: • Complete lessons learned document on CCDs: radiation test and performance (GSFC) • Periodic radiation tests and reports (GSFC - sensors, JPL - APDs) • Begin drafting CCD test guideline (GSFC) Schedule/Costs: Risks: Total ROM Cost (non-CS) = $ 265K Red, Yellow, or Green CS FTEs = 0.5 Non-NASA Organizations/Procurements: DTRA is a co-funder. AFRL provides in-kind. Several industry members including SAIC, MRC provide in-kind Lead Center/PI: GSFC/Cheryl Marshall Co-Is: JPL/ Heidi Becker Center Funding Split: GSFC - $200K/0.5, JPL - $65K Tactical # 14 , Slide # 33
