Description
KISS is intended to be one of the focal plane instruments of NASA's Orbiting Solar Laboratory (OSL). It will be a German contribution to the OSL program. KISS is aimed at spectroscopic studies of dynamical aspects of the solar atmosphere with time scales down to some tei seconds. Spatially resolved dynamical information will be drawn from the solar atmosphere's velocity field, obtained from of spectral line structures induced by Doppler effect. The scientific goals make great demands on the optical and mechanical design of KISS which will be presented herewith.
