This page is a mirror of the ION SADS page available at http://sads.cnes.fr:8010 . Besides the information already available on this page, there you can browse the ION QuickLook images. ... The ION experiment flown on the Interball-Aurora mission performs simultaneous ion and electron measurements. Two mass spectrometers looking in opposing directions perpendicular to the satellite spin axis, which points toward the sun, measure ions in the mass and energy ranges 1-32 amu and ~ 0 to 14,000 eV. ...

... The context ASTROMET can be enabled by the command SET/CONTEXT ASTROMET . ... These commands take care of the following: . read the measurements and standard stars, and compute the transformation parameters (this step is performed by the command ASTROMET/TRANSFORM ); . edit the standard star table to remove/restore some stars (this step is performed by the command ASTROMET/EDIT ); . actually compute the converted coordinates (this step is performed by the command ASTROMET/COMPUTE ). ...

... Status of the ELECTRON experiment . ... The objective of the ELECTRON experiment is to perform 3-D measurements of the plasma electrons in the energy range from 10 eV to 26000 eV, with good angular resolution, sensitivity and large dynamical range. ...

Meinunger (1966) classified it as an eclipsing binary with a period very close to 1 day, noting however that the period and derived minima times were uncertain due to the low variability amplitude. As of July 2011, the O C gateway (Paschke Brat 2006; Paschke 2009) lists, in addition to Meinunger's photographic data, 2 visual and 3 CCD times of minima from Paschke (1988, 1996, 2006), Stepan (1995), Br t et al. ...

This section describes the keywords available for the science instruments planned for installation on HST during Servicing Mission 4: the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) and the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3). ... The COS keywords consist of a list of detectors, apertures, mirrors, gratings, and central wavelengths. FUV spectral simulations are performed by specifying one of the FUV gratings along with a central wavelength. ... The aper keyword is used to perform encircled energy calculations. ...
