A combined spacecraft charging and pulsed X-ray simulation facility
Abstract
A spacecraft charging simulation facility constructed to investigate the response of satellite materials in a typical geomagnetic substorm environment is described. The conditions simulated include vacuum, solar radiation, and substorm electrons. A nuclear threat environment simulation using a flash X ray generator is combined with the spacecraft charging facility. Results obtained on a solar cell array segment used for a preliminary facility demonstration are presented with a description of the facility.
