Descripción
SIMURIS is an interferometric investigation of the very fine structure of the solar atmosphere from the photosphere to the corona. It was proposed to ESA /1/, November 30 1989, for the Next Medium Size Mission - M2, and accepted in February 1990 for an Assessment Study in the context of the Space Station. The main scientific objectives will be outlined, and the ambitious model payload featuring the Solar Ultraviolet Network (SUN), a 2 m long monolithic array of 4 telescopes of Ø20 cm, and the Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer (IFTS), an UV and Visible Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer coupled to a Ø40 cm Gregory, described.
