Solar coronagraph mimics total solar eclipse by blocking the solar disk and enabling the observation of extended coronal atmosphere of the Sun. Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC), on-board Aditya-L1 space mission, is an internally occulted solar coronagraph capable of simultaneous imaging, spectroscopy and spectro-polarimetry close to the solar limb. This payload is designed to study the coronal plasma and heating of the solar corona. Studying development, dynamics and origin of coronal mass ejections and measurement of coronal magnetic fields over active regions are other important science goals. VELC is designed to image the solar corona at 500 nm with an angular resolution of 5" over a field of view (FOV) of 1.05-3 Ro. It also facilitates simultaneous multi-slit spectroscopy at three emission lines, viz. Fe XIV (530.3 nm), Fe XI (789.2 nm) and Fe XIII (1074.7 nm) with a spectral resolution of 28 , 31 and 202 mÅ/pixel respectively, over an FOV of 1.05-1.5 Ro. The payload has a dual-beam spectro-polarimetry channel for magnetic field measurements at 1074.7 nm.Keywords

Acoustic imaging array systems generate an image by processing the acoustic waves backscattered from an underwater object. Generally these systems operate at higher frequencies and provide shorter imaging ranges. The lateral resolution is determined by the ultrasound beam width which is a function of aperture diameter and frequency. The diffraction pattern of an array accounts for all linear effects, such as, transducer size, side and grating lobes, focusing, and beam steering. Angular resolution enhance with increase in the number of elements or the frequency. The side lobes appear as a background noise in the image. The ability and usefulness of the algorithms depend on the quality (Sensitivity, bandwidth, and dynamic range) of the original echo signal, making the transducer the most critical component of ultrasound imaging systems. The present paper presents the design of a 128 element underwater acoustic imaging sensor linear array that operates at 500 kHz and with a horizontal beam width less than 1°. There are several sound field parameters that are critical in designing an ultrasonic transducer array, which have been discussed in the paper. The array evaluated underwater at 500 kHz shows a source level of 184 dB and a receiving sensitivity of -192 dB re V/μPa @1 m. The acoustic cross-talk and other acoustical parameters are also discussed.- Silicon carbide-based functional components in the Visible Emission Line Coronagraph on-board the ADITYA-L1 mission
