Abstract

The next generation Wide Field Planetary Camera will include a calibration system which will enable in situ relative radiometric field calibration of the CCD detectors from the VUV to the near IR. The system features various incandescent and UV light sources which are configured to produce flat field. Preliminary tests and characterization of the system show performance to be quite good both spatially and spectrally. A description of the system, test procedures, and results will be described.
