| Description |
English: The Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) Suite Investigation in the MSL Analytical Laboratory is designed to address the present and past habitability of Mars by exploring molecular and elemental chemistry relevant to life. SAM addresses carbon chemistry through a search for organic compounds, the chemical state of light elements other than carbon, and isotopic tracers of planetary change.
SAM is a suite of three instruments, a Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer (QMS), a Gas Chromatograph (GC), and a Tunable Laser Spectrometer (TLS). The QMS and the GC can operate together in a GCMS mode for separation (GC) and definitive identification (QMS) of organic compounds. The TLS obtains precise isotope ratios for C and O in carbon dioxide and measures trace levels of methane and its carbon isotope.
Polski: Urządzenie do analizowania próbek na Marsie, służące do zbadania składników chemii molekularnej i elementarnej związanych z istnieniem lub nie, elementów istotnych do życia. SAM ukierunkowany jest na chemię węgla poprzez poszukiwanie związków organicznych, stanu chemicznego lekkich elementów innych niż węgiel i izotopowych śladów planetarnych przemian.
SAM składa się z trzech instrumentów, kwadrupolowego spektrometru masowego (KSM), chromatografu gazowego (CG), i strojonego spektrometru laserowego (SSL). KSM i CG są w stanie pracować razem w celu seperacji i ostatecznej identyfikacji komponentów organicznych. SSL uzyskuje precyzyjne indeksy izotopowe dla C i O w dwutlenku węgla i mierzy śladowe ilości poziomu metanu i jego izotopu węgla. |
