Design of a mirror pointing and occulting mechanism for the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer (UVCS)The Mirror and Occulter Mechanism (MOM), a lightweight stable optical assembly which is a critical component to the Ultraviolet Coronagraph Spectrometer to be flown on the European SOHO spacecraft, is discussed. The MOM combines the functions of precision mirror pointing and occultation of stray light into a single package. The mirror mechanism and occulter mechanism designs are described and development testing and life testing activities are discussed.
