Description

SOLSTICE (SOlar STellar Irradiance Comparison Experiment) A and B are 36 kg, 33 W, UV grating spectrometers with photomultiplier detectors that cover the 115-320 nm band at a resolution of 0.1 nm, and at an irradiance accuracy of about 4%. It uses an ensemble of bright stars (selected for their stable luminosities) as calibrators for the instrument variability.
