Abstract
The Compact SOLSTICE, a compact far and mid ultraviolet (FUV and MUV) spectrograph, flew on a sounding rocket on 18 June 2018 to validate and potentially calibrate the SOLar STellar Irradiance Comparison Experiment (SOLSTICE) onboard the Solar Radiation Climate Experiment (SORCE) spacecraft. This article reports the instrument design, the calibration of the FUV channel, and the FUV irradiance measurements. Irradiance measurements are compared to SOLSTICE showing agreement within the combined instrumental uncertainties at most wavelengths, including the H Lyman-\(\alpha \) emission at 121.6 nm. Some unexplained differences in line ratios between 130.5 nm and 147.5 nm are observed.
期刊介绍：
Solar Physics was founded in 1967 and is the principal journal for the publication of the results of fundamental research on the Sun. The journal treats all aspects of solar physics, ranging from the internal structure of the Sun and its evolution to the outer corona and solar wind in interplanetary space. Papers on solar-terrestrial physics and on stellar research are also published when their results have a direct bearing on our understanding of the Sun.
