CHEST Campaign at GSFC

PURPOSE :

The CHEST (Cooling Hardware Environmental Testbed) campaign was conducted at GSFC on Aug 3-13, 2000. The purpose of the test was to determine the noise susceptibility of the HRC and WFC detectors as different cooling hardware are gradually integrated. We want to determine which part of the cooling system induces noise in the detectors and how to best reduce it, if detected.

RESULTS :

The results are presented in : Results of the ACS ASCS-NCS Compatibility Testing Using the CHEST System, Sullivan et al., Sep 2000.
