摘要:
为了对日球成像仪太阳杂光抑制能力进行定量化的评价,开展了日球成像仪太阳杂光抑制能力的测试方法研究和实验验证。提出了一种通过将前端光阑与相机分段测试进而实现在实验室条件下测试日球成像仪太阳杂光抑制能力的方法,避免了真空测试环境下空间受限带来的结构散射误差进而影响测试精度的问题。利用该方法在实验室条件下对一台日球成像仪太阳杂光抑制能力进行了测试,测试结果表明:日球成像仪整机的PST在WACH1相机处为1.4×10−8,在WACH2处为4.3×10−9。对测试结果进行了误差分析,其中随机误差为21.6%,系统误差导致WACH1处PST测试误差为1.1×10−8,在WACH2处为4.2×10−9,测试精度满足高杂光抑制比的日球成像仪测试要求,证明了该测试方法的可行性和准确性。本文的研究为日球成像仪太阳杂光抑制能力的测试提供了一种新的途径。
Abstract:In order to quantitatively assess the solar stray light suppression capability of the heliospheric imager, a testing approach and experimental validation of the solar stray light suppression capability of the heliospheric imager were investigated. In this paper, we propose a method to test the solar stray light suppression capability of the heliospheric imager under laboratory circumstances by conducting segmented tests of the front-end baffle and the camera. This approach circumvented the issue that the structural scattering caused by the test under vacuum conditions would be overly large and influence the accuracy of the test results. The proposed method was then employed to assess the effectiveness of a heliospheric imager in suppressing solar stray light under laboratory conditions. The experimental results indicated that the PST of the heliospheric imager was 1.4×10−8 at WACH1 and 4.3×10−9 at WACH2. The error analysis of the test results revealed that the random error was 21.6%, and the PST resulting from the sum of system errors was 1.1×10−8 at WACH1 and 4.2×10−9 at WACH2. The test accuracy met the requirements, demonstrating the feasibility and accuracy of the test method. The study presented in this paper offers a novel means to test the solar stray light suppression capability of heliospheric imager.
