PSPT News (1Mar94)
(from NSO, NOAO Newsletter No. 37, 1 March 1994)

The Precision Solar Photometric Telescope (PSPT) project has completed
a series of seeing/scintillation experiments, designed to determine if
high photometric precision and good, full-disk spatial resolution can
be obtained using a scintillation monitor.  The results look good (a
preprint is available from R. Coulter or J. Kuhn).  Most of the current
effort is now going into making a 10-Mpixel/s Thomson 1K x 1K CCD
camera work with our DSP system.  The first RISE/PSPT Newsletter
describes our activities to date in greater detail, and was recently
distributed.  It is available by anonymous ftp from
ftp.sunspot.noao.edu in the directory /pub/rise, or by contacting Roy
Coulter (roy@sunspot.noao.edu) or Jeff Kuhn (jkuhn@rise.sunspot.noao.edu).
