Mission Name: SAXThe gas scintillation proportional counter (GSPC) operates over the energy range of 3 to 120 keV. Other characteristics of the GSPC include a geometrical area of 450 sq cm, an energy resolution of 10% at 6 keV and 3% at 60 keV, a field of view of 1 deg by 1 deg, a sensitivity at 10 keV of 2.1E(-4) photon/(sq cm-s-keV) per orbit, and a sensitivity for narrow lines at 60 keV of 3E(-4) photon/(sq cm-s) in 1E4 s.
