Description:
The primary objective of this experiment is to utilize proportional counters of multi-anode multi-layer construction to obtain the spectra of X-ray sources and the diffuse background over the 2 to 60 keV band. Possible broad emission lines, absorption, and spectral breaks in both discrete sources and the diffuse background will be investigated. A schematic representation of this experiment as configured for the OSO-1 wheel and characteristic parameters are summarized.
