Electron-Induced Luminescence and X-Ray Spectrometer (ELXS) System for Life DetectionThe ELXS concept is a novel, portable, micro-instrument targeted for the detection of mineralogic signatures of past water and extinct life on the surface of planetary bodies such as Mars. It is designed to perform rapid, in situ spectroscopy consuming extremely low energy per measurement. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
