Summary

This paper is a technical instrumentation report describing upgrades to the Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI) for solar physics research, not agricultural or food systems research. It documents improvements to X-ray optics, detectors, and alignment systems for hard X-ray imaging spectroscopy of the Sun's corona.

UK applicability

This instrumentation paper has no direct applicability to UK farming, soil health, nutrient density or food systems research, as it concerns solar physics instrumentation development.
