3.0 CONTRACT DESCRIPTION

3.1 STIS DESCRIPTION

The SupraThermal Ion Sensor (STIS) is an ion spectrometer device that measures ions across a broad range of energies to characterize solar ejecta including Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), co-rotating interaction regions (CIRs) and interplanetary shocks. In particular, STIS is a low energy charged particle detector that is capable of measuring the ion flux population as a function of energy. This ion population with energies higher than that of the bulk plasma are produced by local solar acceleration as well as acceleration from a CME shock front. Analysis of these spectra can aid in estimating the arrival time and strength of CMEs shocks.

The STIS contract includes the delivery of one (1) flight model (FM) instrument and one (1) Engineering Development Unit (EDU) [TBR], flight harness(es) between instrument boxes, if applicable, and enough spares and built-up sub-assemblies for one additional FM [TBR].

3.2 GROUND SUPPORT EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION

The STIS contract includes the delivery of (2) sets [TBR] of the Electrical System Test Equipment (ESTE), (2) [TBR] STIS Emulators (STISEs), and (1) One Ground Processing Development System (GPDS). Additionally, Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE) such as lifting fixtures/handles, shipping containers, purge carts, drill templates, test fixtures, non-flight protective covers, etc. are included in the delivery. Electrical Ground Support Equipment includes, but is not limited to, test cables and break-out boxes as required.

Ground Support Equipment is necessary to operate the instrument during spacecraft testing.

Supplying this equipment is considered part of the delivery for the instrument. More information is provided in the contract deliverable requirement list (CDRL).

4.0 FUNCTIONAL/PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

This section defines the functional and performance requirements for the STIS.

The requirements in this Specification pertain to the STIS ‘system’, which may include all instrument hardware, software, and ground processing algorithms. The STIS contractor is not responsible for the operational ground system, but certain specifications will require ground processing after collection but before data distribution for which the contractor is responsible for defining.

4.1 STIS PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

Maximum and Minimum Flux

The STIS requirements below utilize the terms Minimum Flux and Maximum Flux. These terms are defined as follows:

Flux ([cm2 sec sr KeV]-1):

Minimum Flux: 2.48x102 * E(KeV)-2.3 Maximum Flux: 1.01x107 * E(KeV)-1.6

Flux Measurement Range

The STIS shall provide ion differential flux measurements in the range of 15KeV 50KeV - 2,000 KeV. Discrimination of flux constituents or species is not required.

The STIS shall determine the differential ion fluxes in sufficient evenly spaced logarithmic energy bands to meet the accuracy requirement defined in section 4.1.3.

Accuracy

The STIS instrument shall be capable of measuring differential fluxes at the minimum flux with ±100% accuracy varying, as the Poisson statistics improve, down to ±20% at the maximum fluxbetween the minimum and maximum flux with the accuracy varing linearly from ±100% at 50 KeV to ±20% at 2,000 KeV accounting for all error sources. The instruments shall provide a number of energy bands sufficient to support the differential ion flux accuracy requirements at all energies. Error sources include but are not limited to noise, out-of-band response, energy band edge uncertainty, poisson statistics, and facility calibration error.

Field of View (FOV)

The STIS FOV shall be at least 80 degrees in the ecliptic by 60 degrees centered 50 degrees in the ecliptic off of the sun-earth line in the “ahead” direction (the ahead direction is the direction the earth travels in the ecliptic). In the Spacecraft Reference Frame (SRF) coordinates (see section 5.4), the unit vector for the centroid of the FOV of the instrument shall be (0.643, 0, 0.766).

Check the SWFO-L1 Portal at (UPDATE) https://goessp.ndc.nasa.gov to verify correct version prior to use.

5.4 COORDINATE SYSTEM AND ALIGNMENT

The SWFO-L1 spacecraft on-orbit coordinate system uses a right-hand orthogonal, body fixed XYZ coordinate system (Spacecraft Reference Frame - SRF) as follows: the positive XSRF-axis points toward the Sun, the positive YSRF-axis points towards the north ecliptic pole and the ZSRF axis is obtained from the right hand rule. The roll, pitch and yaw rotations are defined about the X, Z, and Y axes, respectively. The origin of coordinate system is at the center of the ESPA ring attachment plane.

The spacecraft will align the sensor axes to within +/-2 [TBR] degrees of the direction specified in section 4.1.4.

The STIS shall have clear fiducial marks to enable alignment during integration with spacecraft.

The instrument unit mounting frame is an orthogonal reference frame defined by the locations of the spacecraft side of the instrument unit mounting points. A rigorous definition of this frame will be documented in the ICD.

6.2 QUASI-STATIC ACCELERATION

Quasi-static acceleration represents the combination of steady-state accelerations and the low frequency mechanically transmitted dynamic accelerations that occur during launch.

The STIS shall be designed to withstand the quasi-static design limit loads defined in the mass-acceleration curve (MAC) shown in Table 6-2 without damage or degradation of performance and are to be applied one axis at a time. The design loads shown below will be updated based on the results of coupled loads analysis.

Linear interpolation should be used between breakpoints to determine the appropriate limit load as a function of STIS weight. Note that these design limit loads are intended to cover only the low frequency launch environment and must be used in conjunction with the random vibration environments to assess structural margins.

The random environment will be updated by NASA once more information is available at the mission level. Note for lightweight STIS, the highest design loads may be from this random vibration environment.

The contractor shall provide random vibration analysis along with static loads analysis. Please see NASA-HDBK-7005 and NASA-STD-7001 for more information.

During the random vibration test, the test input level will be reduced (notched) at critical frequencies, if required, to limit the random vibration loads and/or acceleration responses to 3 dB above design limit levels.

A shock susceptibility and attenuation assessment (analysis) shall be performed on all Spacecraft units or instruments. If the flight shock environment as shown on a Shock Response Spectra (SRS) plot (Q=10) is enveloped by the curve shown below, then the shock environment can be considered benign and there is low risk in deferring the shock test to the Observatory level and the STIS contractor can request a waiver to not perform the shock test at the instrument level.

Analysis supporting this conclusion (i.e. deferral of shock testing) shall be provided to the NASA/GSFC COR for review and approval with the waiver request.

Figure 6-3 SWFO-L1 S/C Acceptance [TBR] Shock Envelope

Any unit determined to be susceptible to the shock environment (e.g., where shock levels are expected to be above the shown curve) shall have shock testing performed at the unit level (preferably on a qualification unit).

Unit self-induced shock testing shall be accomplished by two actuations at the unit level for each self-induced shock source (in order to account for the scatter associated with the actuation of the device) for the first flight unit, and a single actuation on subsequent units.

Figure 6-4 SWFO-L1 S/C Protoflight [TBR] Acoustic Envelope

An acoustic test shall be performed unless an assessment of the unit indicates that it is not susceptible to the expected acoustic environment, or responses are enveloped by random vibration testing, or that testing at higher levels of assembly provides sufficient exposure at an acceptable level of risk to the program as determined by the NASA/GSFC COR.

Definitions

Total Ionizing Dose (TID) - the mean energy deposited by ionizing radiation in a device region divided by the mass of the region. This is often given in units of rad(Si), where 1 rad(Si) = 100 erg deposited per gram of silicon.

Check the SWFO-L1 Portal at (UPDATE) https://goessp.ndc.nasa.gov to verify correct version prior to use.

Enhanced Low Dose Rate Sensitivity (ELDRS) - used to refer to a part that shows enhanced radiation-induced damage at dose rates below 50 rad(Si)/s. The enhancement is the result of true dose rate effects.

Non-Ionizing Energy Loss (NIEL) - a measure of the rate of energy loss due to atomic displacements as a particle traverses a material.

Displacement Damage Dose (DDD) - the mean energy deposited by ionizing radiation in a device region that goes into atomic displacements divided by the mass of the region. There is no official unit for DDD. One such unit is MeV/g.

Single Event Effect (SEE) - any measurable effect to a circuit due to an ion strike. This includes, but is not limited to, single event upsets (SEUs), single event transients (SETs), single hard errors (SHEs), single event latchups (SELs), single event functional interrupts (SEFIs), single event burnouts (SEBs), single event gate ruptures (SEGRs), and single event dielectric ruptures (SEDRs).

Single Event Upset (SEU) - a change of state or transient induced by an energetic particle such as a cosmic ray or proton in a device. This may occur in digital or analog, circuits and may have effects in surrounding interface circuitry (a subset known as SETs). These are “soft” errors in that a reset or rewriting of the device will usually return the device to normal behavior thereafter.

The general goal for non-destructive events such as SEUs or SETs is not to avoid them completely, but to manage their impact through robust circuit design, automatic correction, and/or operational activities based on knowledge from ground radiation tests and circuit/system analysis.

Single-Event Functional Interrupt (SEFI) - a condition that causes loss of device functionality due to a single event in a control portion of a device. It generally requires a device reset or a re-initialization to resume normal device operations, but for some devices, a power cycle is necessary to resume normal device operations.
