" PUBLICATION_DATE = 2014-02-17 END_OBJECT = TEXT END Introduction ============ This dataset contains the raw and smoothed (averaged) instrument thermal telemetry for the entire EPOXI mission from 04 October 2007 to 08 August 2013. Measurements were collected by 59 thermal sensors located in the HRII, HRIV, and MRI instruments, on the instrument platform, and on the solar wings of the Deep Impact flyby spacecraft. For Version 3.0, thermal data from 06 February 2011 to 08 August 2013 were added. Volume Format ============= This single-volume dataset has been formatted according to the ISO-9660 level 2 Interchange Standard for directories and file names as described in Version 3.8 of the PDS Standards Reference. File Formats ============ All text documents and other meta information files such as descriptions, PDS object definitions, and detached PDS labels are stream format files, with a carriage return (ASCII 13) and a line feed character (ASCII 10) at the end of the record. This allows the files to be read by various operating systems. Volume Contents =============== Files on this single-volume dataset are organized into a set of subdirectories below the top-level directory. The following table shows the general structure and content. The top-level of the volume is indicated by a single forward slash (/) and subdirectory names are surrounded by forward slashes (/). See the *INFO.TXT files located in each subdirectory for specific information about the contents the subdirectory. / Top level of this volume (dataset) | |-- AAREADME.TXT This file | |-- VOLDESC.CAT Description of logical contents of this volume | |--/CATALOG/ Directory containing PDS catalog files providing | overviews of the mission, instrument, and dataset; | DATASET.CAT is the point-of-entry 'document' | for this dataset | |-- /DATA/ Directory containing raw and smooth thermal telemetry | | data products for years 2007 to 2011 as ASCII tables | | with detached PDS labels | |-- /RAW/ | | | | | |-- /HRI/ Raw HRI thermal telemetry tables by year | | | | | | | |-- HRI_RAW_I_TEMPS_yyyy.TAB Temperatures from instrument | | | | sensors | | | |-- HRI_RAW_T_TEMPS_yyyy.TAB Temperatures from s/c thermal | | | | subsystem sensors | | | `-- HRI_RAW_x_TEMPS_yyyy.LBL One detached label per table | | | | | `-- /MRI/ Raw MRI thermal telemetry tables by year | | | | | |-- MRI_RAW_I_TEMPS_yyyy.TAB Temperatures from instrument | | | sensors | | |-- MRI_RAW_T_TEMPS_yyyy.TAB Temperatures from s/c thermal | | | subsystem sensors | | `-- MRI_RAW_x_TEMPS_yyyy.LBL One detached label per table | | | `-- /SMOOTH/ | | | |-- /HRI/ Smoothed (averaged) HRI thermal telemetry tables by year | | | | | |-- HRI_SMOOTH_I_TEMPS_yyyy.TXT Temperatures from instrument | | | sensors | | |-- HRI_SMOOTH_T_TEMPS_yyyy.TXT Temperatures from s/c thermal | | | subsystem sensors | | `-- HRI_SMOOTH_x_TEMPS_yyyy.LBL One detached label per table | | | `-- /MRI/ Smoothed (averaged) MRI thermal telemetry tables by year | | | |-- MRI_SMOOTH_I_TEMPS_yyyy.TXT Temperatures from instrument | | sensors | |-- MRI_SMOOTH_T_TEMPS_yyyy.TXT Temperatures from s/c thermal | | subsystem sensors | `-- MRI_SMOOTH_x_TEMPS_yyyy.LBL One detached label per table | | |--/DOCUMENT/ Directory containing documents most useful for | understanding this dataset | `--/INDEX/ Directory containing PDS index and checksum files Whom to Contact for Information =============================== Questions about the thermal sensors and their measurements should be directed to: Donald Hampton University of Alaska Poker Flat Research Range Fairbanks, Alaska USA Questions about the raw and smoothed thermal telemetry data files should be directed to: Brian Carcich EPOXI Science Data Center Manager Department of Astronomy, Cornell University 610 Space Sciences Building Ithaca, NY 14853 USA Questions regarding the PDS elements in this dataset should be directed to: Stephanie McLaughlin EPOXI Archive Team Department of Astronomy, University of Maryland College Park, Maryland 20742 USA
