EUT (Phase A requirements) Based on the EUVSAT proposal. Consists of a bundle of four normal incidence telescopes mounted in a vacuum vessel, which should overlap, be well aligned and synchronized with each other and with the images of the MOT. Field of view 8.5’×8.5’ Pixel resolution 0.25” Format 2048 2048 Wave length 12.8 17.1 19.5 30.4 nm (subject to change)
Detector A CCD imager is to be used with format changing optics (fiber optic taper) in front of it. In order to achieve high sensitivity, an image intensifier is proposed. A front phosphor screen is needed to converse EUV photons to visibles.
