NuSTAR ground calibration: The Rainwater Memorial Calibration Facility (RaMCaF)
The Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) is a NASA Small Explorer mission that will carry the first focusing hard X-ray (5-80 keV ) telescope to orbit. The ground calibration of the three flight optics was carried out at the Rainwater Memorial Calibration Facility (RaMCaF) built for this purpose.
In this article we present the facility and its use for the ground calibration of the three optics.
