Tenders Are Invited For Arrakihs Phase Cd - In-Field Straylight Analysis And Test

Tenders are invited for Arrakihs Phase Cd - in-Field Straylight Analysis and Test - Expro plus The objectives of the activity are to:Characterise and quantify the in-field straylight contributions affecting the ARRAKIHS instrumentDefine, develop and consolidate a methodology for the correction of in-field straylight effectsDefine and implement the test strategy, test configurations and associated Ground Support Equipment (GSE) required for experimental validation.Perform in-field straylight test campaigns on the optical Structural and Thermal Model (oSTM) and Proto-Flight Model (PFM) and acquire representative experimental datasets.[ML1.1]Validate and refine the in-field straylight models and correction methodology against oSTM and PFM test results.Assess the resulting instrument performance and confirm the expected performance at system level using flight-representative test data Tender Link : https://esastar-publication-ext.sso.esa.int/ESATenderActions/filter/open
