GISSMO (Gas Ionization Solar Spectral MOnitor) is an optics-free spectrometer that measures extreme ultraviolet light (EUV) emissions in the wavelength range from 7 to 40 nm. It uses neon gas (Ne) to make these measurements. A related technique is used by the National Institute of Standards and Technology to calibrate EUV flux. [GISSMO Technical Information]
