FIGURE 77.-Particle Telescope. The collimators are used to restrict the field of view. The foil is used to distinguish between protons and electrons. The solid state detectors are sensitive to both protons and electrons. Two of these units (one without the foil) are used in the Apollo 16 subsatellite. Based on a similar sketch by Anderson and others in Apollo 15 Preliminary science report.
