An imaging instrument that can replace mechanically scanning photometers in ground based auroral photometry has been developed. The instrument utilizes a Reticon photodiode array, 1*1024 pixels, coupled with fiber optics to a second generation image intensifier. The optics are a telecentric design allowing for 170° field of view (FoV) with narrow-band interference filters. Peltier element cooling is found to be sufficient to neglect dark current noise for 1-s integration time. The whole system is controlled by a computer via the IEEE-488 bus. Initial results and instrument performance are reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
