Imaging the magnetosphere in the extreme ultraviolet

A final report on research on magnetosphere imaging in the extreme ultraviolet is presented. The objectives of the research contract can be summarized in three related items: (1) investigate the feasibility of the EUV imaging concept by using Lockheed in-situ ion measurement data; (2) investigate the technical resources required to make scientific interpretations of such EUV images by end-to-end simulations of the imaging concept; and (3) construct and test the key element for EUV magnetosphere imaging, the multilayer mirror with normal-incidence reflectance designed for the selected solar resonance line.
