Abstract

The Johns Hopkins Rocket Group is advancing Hydrogen Absorption Cell technology to filter geocoronal emissions from Earth's atmosphere. Our innovation, a low-pressure chamber converting molecular hydrogen into its atomic form, is designed to integrate seamlessly into future Lyman ultraviolet missions. Currently, we are engineering this cell to interface with the Long-slit Imaging Dual Order Spectrograph (LIDOS) for comprehensive testing, focusing on stray light detection. This research aims to leverage this technology for photometric measurements and assess its suitability with a spectrograph in future mission concepts.
