THEMIS ESA Data
Latest News
Written by Tom Narock   
Friday, 15 August 2008

THEMIS ESA has been added to the data products available through the relational data search interface. This product is now available for all 5 THEMIS spacecraft.

THEMIS Electrostatic Analyzers (ESA) Overview:

Electron/Ion Ground-Calculated Energy Fluxes (5eV - 25 keV for Ions and 6eV - 30 KeV for Electrons) and Moments (density, velocity, pressure, and temperature). The satellite has 2 modes Fast and Slow survey and 3 data types: FULL, REDUCED and BURST. FULL: 88 angles x 32 energies, time resolution of 128 spins(395 seconds) in slow survey and 32 spins(98 seconds) in fast survey. REDUCED: spin time resolution(3 sec) but angles averaged into 1 angular spectra x 32 energies in slow survey or 6 angular spectra(90 degree x 90 degree window) x 32 energies in fast survey. BURST: 88 angles x 32 energies and spin time resolution(3 sec) but only available sporadically and for short duration. Note that angular resolution affects moments since they are obtained integrating over the mode-specific angular distribution. These moments are processed on the ground. They should be regarded as approximations but will improve in quality as our processing routines are improved over the course of the mission to account for additional sources of variance.

 
POLAR TIMAS Data

Wednesday, 13 August 2008

Two additional data products become available through the relational data search interface: The POLAR TIMAS H0 high-resolution and K1 key parameter data.

The POLAR TIMAS H0 High-resolution data product provides mass resolved ion energy angle spectra covering nearly the full 4pi solid angle and the energy range 15 eV/q to 33 eV/q. H+, O+, He+ and He++ number fluxes and statistical uncertainties processed by the TIMAS science team. The H0 product combines data acquired with various angular and energy resolutions.

The POLAR TIMAS K1 Key Parameter data product offers H+, O+, He+ and He++ number fluxes for survey purposes only.

Test Stand A-2 Peering Out from the Fog
  • Test Stand A-2 Peering Out from the Fog
    At Stennis Space Center, three large engine test stands were built the early 1960s to test the first and second stages of the Apollo Saturn V rocket that carried Americans to the moon. Since 1975, the test stands have supported testing of the Space Shuttle main engines. The last planned test was conducted in July of 2009. In this photo, the A-2 Test Stand peered out from a thick blanket of fog during the early morning hours of Oct. 28, 2009. This photo was taken from the top of the B Test Stand. The A-1 and A-2 test stands are transitioning to support J-2X engine testing for the Constellation Program, while the B-1/B-2 test stand will support stage testing. For the first time since the 1960s, a new test stand, called A-3, is under construction with a scheduled completion date of 2011. The A-3 test stand will be 300 feet tall and will enable engineers to conduct simulated high-altitude testing up to 100,000 feet. Photo Credit: NASA/SSC/Allen Forsman, Pratt and Whitney Rocketdyne
