KPL/IK MIMI Instrument Kernel ============================================================================== This instrument kernel (I-kernel) contains references to the mounting alignment, internal and FOV geometry for the Cassini Magnetospheric Imaging Instrument (MIMI). Version and Date ---------------------------------------------------------- The TEXT_KERNEL_ID stores version information of loaded project text kernels. Each entry associated with the keyword is a string that consists of four parts: the kernel name, version, entry date, and type. For example, the ISS I-kernel might have an entry as follows: TEXT_KERNEL_ID += 'CASSINI_ISS V0.0.0 29-SEPTEMBER-1999 IK' | | | | | | | | KERNEL NAME <-------+ | | | | | V VERSION <-------+ | KERNEL TYPE | V ENTRY DATE MIMI I-Kernel Version: \begindata TEXT_KERNEL_ID += 'CASSINI_MIMI V1.1.0 17-NOVEMBER-2000 IK' \begintext Version 1.1 -- April 23, 2001 -- Scott Turner -- Updated kernel to utilize new FOV ANGLES specification.

Loading the kernel associates data items with their names in a data structure called the ``kernel pool''. The SPICELIB routine FURNSH and CSPICE routine furnsh_c load SPICE kernels as shown below: FORTRAN (SPICELIB) CALL FURNSH ( 'kernel_name' ) C (CSPICE) furnsh_c ( "kernel_name" ) In order for a program or subroutine to extract data from the pool, the SPICELIB routines GDPOOL and GIPOOL are used. See [2] for details. This file was created and may be updated with a text editor or word processor. Naming Conventions ---------------------------------------------------------- All names referencing values in this I-kernel start with the characters `INS' followed by the NAIF Cassini spacecraft ID number (-82) followed by a NAIF three digit code for the MIMI detectors. (CHEMS = 760, INCA = 761, LEMMS1 = 762 , LEMMS2 = 763 ). The remainder of the name is an underscore character followed by the unique name of the data item. For example, the MIMI_CHEMS boresight direction in the MIMI_CHEMS frame (``CASSINI_MIMI_CHEMS'' -- see [6] ) is specified by: INS-82760_BORESIGHT The upper bound on the length of the name of any data item is 32 characters. If the same item is included in more than one file, or if the same item appears more than once within a single file, the latest value supersedes any earlier values. MIMI description ---------------------------------------------------------- From [3]: The Magnetospheric Imaging Instrument (MIMI) will provide global images of Saturnian hot plasmas remotely and will perform comprehensive direct measurements of hot plasma, including charge state and elemental composition. The MIMI instrument consists of one set of electronics, the MIMI electronics box, servicing three detector heads that perform the various measurements: the low-energy magnetospheric measurements system (LEMMS), the charge-energy-mass spectrometer (CHEMS), and the ion and neutral camera (INCA). For information on these components, see below. (MIMI) The MIMI electronics box contains the data processing unit (DPU) and the digital processing electronics for all three detector heads. The low-energy magnetospheric measurements system (LEMMS) detector head will measure low- and high-energy proton, ion, and electron angular distributions. The LEMMS head is mounted on a scan platform capable of 180-degree rotations. The platform is mounted so that the rotation axis is oriented perpendicular to the spacecraft X axis and so that its extrapolation intersects the spacecraft Z axis. The charge-energy-mass spectrometer (CHEMS) head will measure the charge state and composition of ions in the most energetically important portion of the Saturnian magnetospheric plasma. The ion and neutral camera (INCA) will make two different types of measurements. It will obtain with very high sensitivity the three-dimensional distribution, velocities, and rough composition of magnetospheric and interplanetary ions for those regions in which the energetic ion fluxes are very low. The INCA instrument will also obtain remote images of the global distribution of the energetic neutral emission of hot plasmas in the Saturnian magnetosphere, measuring the composition and velocities of those energetic neutrals for each image pixel. MIMI Field of View Parameters ---------------------------------------------------------- The field of view parameters for the four detectors that constitute MIMI are: -- Charge-Energy-Mass Spectrometer (CHEMS) -- Ion and Neutral Camera (INCA) -- Low Energy Magnetospheric Measurements System 1 (LEMMS1) -- Low Energy Magnetospheric Measurements System 2 (LEMMS2) Circular FOVs: ------------ ------------------- Detector Diameter ------------ ------------------- LEMMS1 15.0 degrees LEMMS2 30.0 degrees ------------ ------------------- Rectangular FOVs: ------------ -------------------- -------------------- Detector Horizontal Vertical ------------ -------------------- -------------------- CHEMS 4.80 degrees 159.0 degrees INCA 90.0 degrees 120.0 degrees ------------ -------------------- -------------------- The keywords INS[ID]_FOV_FRAME, INS[ID]_FOV_SHAPE, INS[ID]_BORESIGHT, and FOV ANGLES specification keywords defined below are used to describe the instrument field of view. Since the LEMMS detectors have a circular field of view and CHEMS and INCA have rectangular ones, the INS[ID]_FOV_SHAPE will either be 'CIRCLE' or 'RECTANGLE'. In the case of the LEMMS, GETFOV returns a single vector that lies along the edge of the circular cone, and for CHEMS and INCA four vectors. All four FOV boresights lie along the Z-axis. Charge-Energy-Mass Spectrometer (CHEMS) FOV Definition Since CHEMS has a rectangular field of view, four boundary corner vectors are returned by GETFOV. This requires two separate views to properly visualize. First consider looking down the X-axis in the CASSINI_MIMI_CHEMS frame at the X=0 plane which permits the computation of the Y components of the boundary corner vectors.
