RadioAstron Monthly Notices
May 2003
Tasks and developments
completed in the ASC
1.
Monitoring of the development of the on-board
92-cm receiver (R-SRT-92 cm) ongoing at
the KB GORIZONT in Nizhnii Novgorod:
a) assembling
and tuning of printing-circuit boards for the Test-set device and assembling of
the Test-set device itself;
b) assembling of printing-circuit boards for the Flight
Model of the receiver.
2.
Monitoring of the development of the on-board 1.35-cm
receiver (R-SRT-1.35 cm) ongoing at the OKB IRE in Fryazino:
a) Technical
specifications on Power Supply Unit for the receiver were agreed and proved;
b) Development
of formal technical documentation on the receiver was continuing;
c) Foreign
components used in the receiver design were certificated;
d) The program
and the methods of the receiver tests were written and agreed.
3.
Engineering models of the On-board Rubidium Frequency
Standard (ORFS-SRT) and Space Radio Telescope On-board Heterodyne and Clock
Frequencies Synthesizer set (OHCFS-SRT) were packed and delivered to LA to be
assembled with the SRT in the Device Container.
4.
Hardware and software for the automatic time
synchronization of the equipment used in Zero Baseline Interferometer Tests
(ZBIT) was developed and tested.
5.
Laboratory measurements of phase variations in the
OHCFS were conducted. Two type of the phase loop lock module were tested on
time scale of several hours. The study is being continued.
6. Ground-based
H-maser standard was put in operation
and tested at the Pushchino Radio Astronomical Observatory in order to use it
in the future RadioAstron tests.
7. In compliance with Formatter EGSE (Electronic Ground
Support Equipment) development program two control desks for Formatter test
fixture were finished and tested including applied soft debugging. The desks control
Formatter operating mode, supply the simulation sets of SRT telemetry data for
Formatter frame header, display power supply and Formatter current mode
parameters, including internal blocks temperatures. The controlling and data
representation are realized by PC display and keyboard. The soft provides USB
PC-desk data interchange and display.
8.
Postprocessing of VLBA observations of H2O maser
source W3(OH) has been completed. The data were taken from the VLBA archive. It
was found that the brightest feature in the spectrum with the flux density about
3000 Jy was not resolved at the longest baseline of 640 Mλ (0.3 mas). The
source can be the target for RdioAstron (astro-ph/0305455).
Tasks and developments
completed in Lavochkin Association
9.
All engineering devices belonging to Focal
Container (FC) passed reception check
and were assembled at the standard frame of Focal Container.
10. Thermo-Vacuum-Test (TVT) of
Device Container (DC), equipped with the thermal models of scientific payload
and assembled with the Thermo-Vacuum Model (TVM) of the Spacecraft Bus, is close to accomplishment.
11. Thermal tests of special cryogenic
system which will be used for LNA cooling during Pushchino test were
successfully completed. The technique of drying the cryogenic system and the
technique of safe cooling process at a low rate of 25-30 degrees per hour were developed as the output of the tests.
