AbstractThe experiment Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation (SUMER) is designed for the investigations of plasma flow characteristics, turbulence and wave motions, plasma densities and temperatures, structures and events associated with solar magnetic activity in the chromosphere, the transition zone and the corona. Specifically, SUMER will measure profiles and intensities of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lines emitted in the solar atmosphere ranging from the upper chromosphere to the lower corona; determine line broadenings, spectral positions and Doppler shifts with high accuracy; provide stigmatic images of selected areas of the Sun in the EUV with high spatial, temporal and spectral resolution and obtain full images of the Sun and the inner corona in selectable EUV lines, corresponding to a temperature range from 104to more than 1.8 x 106K. The spatial and spectral resolution capabilities of the instrument will be considered in this contribution in some detail, and a new detector concept will be introduced.

AbstractThe expected in-orbit performance of the three spectrometers included on the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) astronomical satellite is presented. Recent calibrations of the gratings, mirrors and detectors using monochromatic and continuum EUV light sources allow the calculation of the spectral resolution and throughput of the instrument. An effective area range of 0.2 to 2.8 cm2 is achieved over the wavelength range 70-600Å with a peak spectral resolution λ/Δλ (FWHM) of ~ 360 assuming a spacecraft pointing knowledge of 10 arc seconds (FWHM). For a 40,000 sec observation, the average 3σ sensitivity to a monochromatic line source is 3 × 103 photons cm-2 sec-1. Simulated observations of known classes of EUV sources such as hot white dwarfs and cataclysmic variables are also presented.

During the ORFEUS-SPAS (Orbiting Retrievable Far and Extreme Ultraviolet Spectrometer on the Shuttle Pallet Satellite) mission STS-51, flown in September 1993, we observed the central star of the planetary nebula NGC 6543 in the far ultraviolet (90 nm to 115 nm) wavelength region using the University of California, Berkeley spectrometer with a spectral resolution of 0.03 nm.

Ultrafast processes in matter, such as the electron emission after light absorption, can now be studied using ultrashort light pulses of attosecond duration (10−18 seconds) in the extreme ultraviolet spectral range. The lack of spectral resolution due to the use of short light pulses has raised issues in the interpretation of the experimental results and the comparison with theoretical calculations. We determine photoionization time delays in neon atoms over a 40–electron volt energy range with an interferometric technique combining high temporal and spectral resolution. We spectrally disentangle direct ionization from ionization with shake-up, in which a second electron is left in an excited state, and obtain excellent agreement with theoretical calculations, thereby solving a puzzle raised by 7-year-old measurements.

Although coronae for stars other than the Sun have previously been detected only in the X-ray and radio portions of the spectrum, the HST and future spacecraft sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) and extreme ultraviolet (ETIV) light will have the spectral resolution to study the dynamics and spectroscopic diagnostics of hot coronal plasmas. In the UV region accessible to HST, forbidden lines of FeXII at 1242 and 1349Å, of FeXXI at 1354Å, and other species seen in solar flares, are predicted to be present in the spectra of active stars. Upcoming observations with the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph (GHRS) by S. Maran will search for these lines in the dM2e star AU Mic and other stars.
