“…The data at wavelengths shorter than the Al edge is assumed to be correct. We assume F2(X) is the dominant term in the sum which allows us to correct the data at double the previous wavelength range by using formula (5). In practice this means that for telescopes, we assume the second order peaks to be relatively free from contamination and use this data along with our knowledge of F2(A) to calculate the contamination of the first order peak.…”

The Multi-Spectral Solar Telescope Array (MSSTA), a rocket-borne solar observatory, was successfully flown in May, 1991 , obtaining solar images in eight XUV and FUV bands with 12 compact multilayer telescopes. Extensive measurements have recently been carried out on the multilayer telescopes and thin film filters at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory. These measurements are the first high spectral resolution calibrations of the MSSTA instruments. Previous measurements and/or calculations of telescope throughputs have been confirmed with greater accuracy. Results are presented on Mo/Si multilayer bandpass changes with time and experimental potassium bromide and tellurium filters.
