1.4 Soft X-Ray Telescope (SXT)

Instrument:          Glancing incidence mirror/CCD sensor
                     Co-aligned optical telescope using same CCD
Wavelength ranges:   2.5-46 A     no analysis filter (or Noback)
                     2.5-36 A     1265 A Al
                     2.4-32 A     2930 A Al, 2070 A Mg, 562 A Mn, 190 A C
                     2.4-23 A     2.52 micron Mg
                     2.4-13 A     11.6 micron Al
                     2.3-10 A     119 micron Be
                     4600-4800 A  Wide band optical filter
                     4290-4320 A  Narrow band optical filter
Spectral discrimination:   Filters
Angular resolution:        3 arcsec
Field of View:             42 x 42 arcmin
Best time resolution:      0.5 sec
Typical time resolution:   2.0 sec in FLARE, 8.0 sec in QUIET

After the failure of an entrance filter in Nov-92, the narrow band, wide band optical filters, and Noback X-ray filter became unusable.
