OSSE Preprint No. 6 The Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment Instrument Description
ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL SUPPLEMENT SERIES(2007)
摘要
The Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSE) on the Arthur Holly Compton Gamma Ray Observatory satellite uses four actively shielded NaI(Tl)-CsI(Na) phoswich detectors to provide gamma-ray line and continuum detection capability. in the 0.05-10 MeV energy range. The instrument includes secondary capabilities for gamma-ray and neutron detection between 10 and 250 MeV. The detectors have 3.8-degrees x 11.4-degrees (FWHM) fields of view defined by tungsten collimators. Each detector has an independent, single-axis orientation system which permits offset pointing from the spacecraft Z-axis for background measurements and multitarget observations. The instrument, and its calibration and performance, are described.
