| NAME |
TOTAL LUMINANCE PHOTOMETER
|
| TYPE |
PHOTOMETER
|
| DESCRIPTION |
The LCROSS Total Luminence Photometer (TLP) is designed to measure the total impact flash luminance, magnitude, and decay of the luminance curve by providing visible light (0.4 to 1.0 micron) intensity data at a 1000 Hz sampling rate. The TLP comprises a Sensor Electronics Module (SEM) and a Digital Electronics Module (DEM). The sensor element, in the SEM, is an uncooled avalanche phot-diode. The optics give a roughly 10 degree diameter field of view. The SEm also contains the signal filtering, and the DEM converts the analog sensor signal to a digital output. The instrument is mounted on the inboard side of the LCROSS R6 radiator panel with its aperture pointing in the +X spacecraft direction.
