XRS (
Solar X-ray Sensor): ion chamber sensitive in 2 bands
(0.05-0.3 nm and 0.1-0.8 nm)
EPS (
Energetic Particle Sensor): 3 detector groups for electron,

Carries a new Solar X-ray imager (SXI). It was designed and built by
Lockheed Martin Space Systems.
The imager maps the X-ray emitting regions on the Sun in the bands 0.6-3.0 and
0.6-6.0 nm, once per minute.
