CASSTOR: a scientific and technology nanosatellite demonstrator for UV spectropolarimetry

Le résumé fourni par la source

In the context of the development of several space mission projects for UV spectropolarimetry at high resolution and over a wide UV wavelength range, such as Arago, Polstar, and Pollux onboard the Habitable Worlds Observatory, we are studying and developing the UV nanosatellite CASSTOR to obtain the very first UV spectropolarimetric observations of hot stars and test several new technologies, in particular a UV polarimeter and a Fine Guiding System. In this paper, we present the work and outcome of the Phase 0 study of CASSTOR.
