EVE Science Questions/Objectives
What questions will EVE answer? EVE Objective The EVE Plan
1 What is the solar EUV spectral irradiance and how much does it vary? Specify the solar EUV spectral irradiance and its variability on multiple time scales Measure the EUV 0-105 nm with 0.1 nm resolution H I Lyman-a at 121.6 nm Measurement Time Scales 20sec cadence, continuous sequence
2 Why does the solar EUV spectral irradiance vary? Advance current understanding of how and why the solar EUV spectral irradiance varies Use AIA and HMI solar images to understand the interactions of the solar magnetic fields and the evolution of the solar features (e.g., plage, active network) and how these affect the solar variations
3 How well can we predict the absolute value and variability of the solar EUV spectral irradiance? Improve the capability to predict the EUV spectral irradiance variability Develop new forecast and nowcast models of the solar EUV irradiance for use in the NOAA space weather operations
4 How does the geospace environment respond to variations in the solar EUV spectral irradiance and what are the societal impacts? Understand the response of the geospace environment to variations in the solar EUV spectral irradiance and the impact on human endeavors Use solar EUV irradiances with thermosphere and ionosphere models to better define the solar influences on Earths atmosphere Input EVE solar data near real-time into NOAA operational atmospheric models to improve accuracy of solar storm warnings and satellite drag calculations and to predict communications disruptions
5
Why EUV Measurements?
  • The solar extreme ultraviolet (EUV l lt 120 nm)
    radiation is the primary energy input for the
    thermosphere (where satellites reside) and the
    ionosphere (what affects communications)

Primary atmospheric absorbers are N2, O, O2, and
O3
Plot shows where the solar radiation is deposited
in the atmosphere
6
What is the solar EUV ?
  • The solar EUV radiation consists of emissions
    from the solar chromosphere, transition region,
    and corona
  • EUV is lt 0.01 of the total solar irradiance
    (TSI gt99 from photosphere)
  • But EUV variations are a factor of 2 - 100
    (wavelength dependent), whereas TSI has only 0.1
    variations
  • And EUV is completely absorbed in Earths
    atmosphere
  • And EUV photons are energetic enough to ionize
    the atmosphere (creates the ionosphere)

7
How does EVE measure the EUV?
  • Multiple EUV Grating Spectrograph (MEGS)
  • At 0.1 nm resolution
  • MEGS-A 5-36 nm
  • MEGS-B 35-105 nm
  • At 1 nm resolution
  • MEGS-SAM 0-7 nm
  • At 20 nm resolution
  • MEGS-Photometers _at_ 15, 25, 40, 60, 121.6 nm
  • Ly-a Proxy for other H I emissions at 80-102 nm
  • EUV Spectrophotometer (ESP)
  • At 4 nm resolution
  • 18.4, 25.6, 30.4, 36.8, 58.4 nm
  • At 7 nm resolution
  • 0-7 nm (zeroth order)

ESP Single Channel ESP - Single Channel Enhanced Extend ESP spectral coverage Reduced risk approach to retaining inflight cal capabilities Rescope and enhance to cover loss of OFS measurements Custom diodes allow for respread of coverage to new desired range
MEGS 2 Channels MEGS - 2 Channels Enhanced Change MEGS zero order light traps to Si diode traps that provide 8 channels w/filter wheel utilization Reduced risk approach to retaining inflight cal capabilities Rescope and enhance to cover loss of OFS measurements TIMED SEE SOURCE XPS photometer heritage
Aperture Doors (1-Shot) Addition Slight increase in mass Address potential contamination concerns (reduce risk) Heritage from Messenger/MASCS design In Review/Approval process w/Project
5 Rocket Underflights 5 underflights required to meet 25 absolute accuracy requirement with descope of OFS Fabricate rocket instruments (MEGS/ESP prototypes) in Phase C instead of Phase E

Mitigation of Technical Challenges
  • CCD Technical Mitigation
  • Mechanical/Thermal Breadboard vibration test
    completed, FEM correlated, and design refinements
    in process
  • Power Supply Breadboard revealed that ripple
    requirements for CCD power cannot be met with
    DC/DC converters from the Projects common buy
  • The subsequent trade study led to the
    incorporation of custom power supplies from Space
    Instruments for the CCD electronics
  • CCD Power and Grounding TIM established ground
    and isolation requirements for the CCD subsystem
    (LASP, SI, MIT/LL, Ball)
  • Resulted in the change from chassis to analog
    grounds at the CCD header assembly
  • CCD Life Testing planned life tests will verify
    in band sensitivity (QE) and total EUV fluence
    over mission life prior to the CDR
  • Engineering Models engineering model CCD
    subsystems will verify noise performance prior to
    CDR

Mitigation Continued
  • The Filter Wheel breadboard has successfully
    demonstrated a sound design
  • Vibration (random) tests have successfully
    demonstrated the integrity of filters and
    mounting scheme (and resulted in the
    identification of materials not suitable for use
    in unsupported filters Sn)
  • Thermal Cycle tests have successfully
    demonstrated filter wheel integrity over the
    survival temperature range
  • Filter Attenuation and Scatter initial testing
