Pointed telescope subassembly for the UARS High Resolution Doppler Imager
Abstract
The Pointed Telescope Subassembly (PTS) consists of a telescope, its Coude relay optics, a two axis gimbal mechanism, and a cover/caging device. These components, their mechanisms, the requirements, and some of the trade-offs leading to the final design are described. The PTS supplies light to the interferometer of the High Resolution Doppler Imager to be used to study upper atmospheric wind velocity.
