title: A spectral radiometer for reentry measurements.
abstract: A radiometer specifically designed to measure the radiant power emitted by a reentry event is discussed. The measurement problem is presented. The optical design problem is evaluated. The result of a computer-designed optical configuration is given. The electronic circuits and data recording system are discussed, and the performance of the system is evaluated in terms of the measurement problem.
