论文摘要
马歇尔放牧的发射光谱仪{\ it magixs}是一个声音的火箭实验,将观察24-6.0Å(0.5-2.0 keV)的柔和的X射线频谱,计划于2021年推出,并在2021年发射。 NASA马歇尔太空飞行中心。在本文中,我们使用CCD摄像头介绍了来自电子冲击源的入射X射线通量的校准; CCD处的光子通量足够低,可以用作“光子计数器”,即识别单个光子命中并计算其能量的能力。本文的目的是两倍:1)确认通过XRCF光束归一化检测器测量的通量与文献中报告的值一致,因此可靠,对于{\ it magixs}校准和2),以开发一种在CCD图像中计算CCD图像的方法
The Marshall Grazing Incidence Spectrometer {\it MaGIXS} is a sounding rocket experiment that will observe the soft X-ray spectrum of the Sun from 24 - 6.0 Å (0.5 - 2.0 keV) and is scheduled for launch in 2021. Component and instrument level calibrations for the {\it MaGIXS} instrument are carried out using the X-ray and Cryogenic Facility (XRCF) at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. In this paper, we present the calibration of the incident X-ray flux from the electron impact source with different targets at the XRCF using a CCD camera; the photon flux at the CCD was low enough to enable its use as a "photon counter" i.e. the ability to identify individual photon hits and calculate their energy. The goal of this paper is two-fold: 1) to confirm that the flux measured by the XRCF beam normalization detectors is consistent with the values reported in the literature and therefore reliable for {\it MaGIXS} calibration and 2) to develop a method of counting photons in CCD images that best captures their number and energy
