Alpha Particle X-Ray Spectrometer (APXS) on-board Chandrayaan-2 rover

Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer (APXS) payload configuration for Chandrayaan-2 rover has been completed recently and fabrication of mechanical assembly, PCB layout design and fabrication are in progress. Here we present the design and performance evaluation of various subsystems developed for APXS payload. The low energy threshold of <1 keV and the energy resolution of ∼150 eV at 5.9 keV, for the Silicon Drift Detector (SDD), as measured from the developed APXS electronics is comparable to the standard spectrometers available off-the-shelf. We have also carried out experiments for measuring fluorescent X-ray spectrum from various standard samples from the USGS catalog irradiated by the laboratory X-ray source ²⁴¹Am with 1 mCi activity. It is shown that intensities of various characteristic X-ray lines are well correlated with the respective elemental concentrations.     

Sensing the Earth’s low ionosphere during solar flares using VLF signals and goes solar X-ray data

An analysis of D-region electron density height profile variations, induced by four isolated solar X-ray flares during period from September 2005 to December 2006, based on the amplitude and the phase delay perturbation of 22.1 kHz signal trace from Skelton (54.72 N, 2.88 W) to Belgrade (44.85 N, 20.38 E), coded GQD, was carried out. Solar flare data were taken from NOAA GOES12 satellite one-minute listings. For VLF data acquisition and recordings at the Institute of Physics, Belgrade, Serbia, the AbsPAL system was used. Starting from LWPCv21 code (Ferguson, 1998), the variations of the Earth-ionosphere waveguide characteristic parameters, sharpness and reflection height, were estimated during the flare conditions. It was found that solar flare events affected the VLF wave propagation in the Earth-ionosphere waveguide by changing the lower ionosphere electron density height profile, in a different way, for different solar flare events.

为提高X射线脉冲星导航系统中累积脉冲轮廓的时间延迟测量精度,分析了X射线脉冲星累积脉冲轮廓的特点和现有时延测量算法的缺陷,提出了一种粗略估计和精确测最相结合的时间延迟测量算法.该算法首先利用三阶互小波累积量进行粗略估计,可抑制尺度伸缩和噪声的影响;然后通过抛物面内插法精确测量时间延迟,避免了小步长的迭代运算,可大幅度降低算法的运算量.利用美国罗希(Rossi)X射线时变探测卫星的实测脉冲星数据进行实验,结果表明:该算法可屏蔽由多普勒效应和相位间隔长度的不同引起的尺度伸缩,能够抑制噪声,测量误差小于现有算法;当相位间隔为0.9°时,该算法的测量精度达到最高;该算法运算量小,不足现有算法的10%,适用于X射线脉冲星导航系统.     

卡托辛对AP热分解影响的XPS研究

采用XPS方法研究了卡托辛对复合固体推进剂氧化剂AP热分解过程的作用机理。结果表明,热氧化后Fe原子的结合能向高位移动,再根据Fe2p3/2谱强度的变化,说明卡托辛在AP热分解过程中是逐渐氧化过程,Fe—C共轭键逐渐断裂;Cl原子的结合能向低位移动,且在200 eV左右出现低结合能的峰,同时其强度逐渐增大,Cl原子在200 eV处形成的低结合能态的可能途径是卡托辛的分解产物环戊二烯离子与HClO4的分解产物HCl发生反应,加速了HClO4的分解速度;卡托辛的二茂铁基夹心结构破坏后生成的Fe2O3具有较高的反应活性,亦加速AP离解产物HClO4的分解速度。     

Pre-correction X-ray pulsar navigation algorithm based on asynchronous overlapping observation method

In order to shorten the data update period and further improve the accuracy, a pre-correction X-ray pulsar navigation algorithm based on asynchronous overlapping observation method is proposed. The asynchronous overlapping observation method partially overlaps the two adjacent observation periods, so that the data update period depends on the minimum pulsar observation period rather than the maximum like the other algorithms. The number of sampling points is also reduced to 2, which will effectively reduce the calculation burden. The proposed pre-correction extended Kalman filter uses observation data of adjacent sampling points to achieve a two-fold correction and makes up for the problem of insufficient observations on some sampling points caused by the observation method. Finally, simulations show that the proposed algorithm reduces the position and velocity errors by 21.55% and 19.13% compared to the EKF based on asynchronous observation method when using three detectors to observe the corresponding pulsars simultaneously. At the same time, the running time of one data update calculation is only 6.6% more than that of the EKF algorithm based on synchronous observation method.     

Successes and challenges in non-destructive testing of aircraft composite structures

Composite materials are increasingly used in the aerospace industry. To fully realise the weight saving potential along with superior mechanical properties that composites offer in safety critical applications, reliable Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) methods are required to prevent catastrophic failures. This paper will review the state of the art in the field and point to highlight the success and challenges that different NDT methods are faced to evaluate the integrity of critical aerospace composites. The focus will be on advanced certificated NDT methods for damage detection and characterization in composite laminates for use in the aircraft primary and secondary structures.
