Description:
The preliminary system design of a Solar Microwave Spectrograph (SMS) is presented. This design resulted from a study to determine the feasibility of measuring solar polarization and dynamic spectra over the range of two to eight GHz, using broadband radio frequency instrumentation and rapid recording equipment in conjunction with radio telescopes. The scientific value of the proposed SMS instrument is discussed, with remarks concerning data reduction and analysis and a presentation of the engineering plan to implement the SMS system.
