Both instruments observe radiation with 21 detectors in each of nine spectral bands. MCS is primarily an atmospheric limb sounder that measures temperature, pressure, water vapor, dust, and condensates at Mars' atmospheric limb. In contrast, Diviner is a surface pushbroom mapper that measures emitted thermal radiation and reflected solar radiation from the surface of the moon. Two Diviner solar channels measure 0.3-3 micrometers reflected solar radiation. Three Diviner channels near 8 micrometers classify regolith mineralogy by mapping the location of the Christiansen feature. The remaining four Diviner channels measure surface temperature in four spectral bands ranging from 12.5 micrometers to beyond 200 micrometers. Hardware Overview ================= The Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment is a nine channel infrared radiometer employing filter radiometry. These channels are distributed between two identical, boresighted telescopes, and an articulated elevation/azimuth mount allows the telescopes to view the lunar surface, space, and calibration targets. The instantaneous field-of-view (FOV) response of each channel is defined by a linear, 21-element, thermopile detector array at the telescope focal plane, and its spectral response is defined by a focal plane bandpass filter. The Diviner structure consists of an instrument optics bench assembly (OBA), an elevation/azimuth yoke, and an instrument mount. The OBA contains all of the instrument optical subassemblies, and is suspended from the yoke. Elevation and azimuth motors mounted on the yoke drive instrument articulation. The OBA can be temperature controlled, and internal temperature gradients are minimized by design. Radiometric calibration is provided by views of blackbody and solar targets mounted on the yoke. The electronics subassemblies control signal processing, instrument operation and articulation, command processing, and data processing. These electronics are distributed between the OBA and the yoke.
