Artep Inc. will provide a complete spectrometer system with image plate holders. The spectrometer will cover the 17 to 90 keV energy range at the standoff distance of 600 mm. The energy range and the spectrometer will be similar to the present Transmission Crystal Spectrometer that operates at the Omega facility.
The proposed transmission crystal spectrometer is composed of a spectrometer module housing a quartz (10-11) transmission crystal and a crossover slit, a detector module housing four image plate holders, a nosecone, a debris shield, and a removable pointer.
