===D-CIXS===
The Demonstration of a Compact X-ray Spectrometer was an [[X-ray telescope]] for the identification of chemical elements on the lunar surface. It detected the [[X-ray fluorescence]] (XRF) of crystal compounds created through the interaction of the electron shell with the solar wind particles to measure the abundance of the three main components: [[magnesium]], [[silicon]] and [[aluminium]]. The detection of [[iron]], [[calcium]] and [[titanium]] depended on the solar activity. The detection range for X-rays was 0.5 to 10 keV. The spectrometer and XSM (described below) together weighed 5.2&nbsp;kg and had a power consumption of 18 watts.
