The directory structure and file naming convention mirrors that of the DATA directory. These images show the projection of the Alice entrance slit onto the sky at the midpoint of the file. Stars in the HD catalog with spectral types of O, B, or A and V magnitude < 8 are also shown. These context images show the observation geometry at a single instant in time: the file midpoint. As such, they may not be representative of the observation geometry at other times covered by the data file, especially if the spacecraft was slewing or if the distance/orientation of Rosetta with respect to various celestial bodies changed significantly during the observation. Use with caution. ================================================================= NAMING CONVENTIONS ================================================================= Rosetta Alice data contained within the DATA directory have the following naming conventions (These are described in greater detail in the Rosetta Alice EAICD included in the DOCUMENT directory): RA__.PNG is the 12-character UTC date and time of the start of the observation (the start of collecting photons). is one of the following 4-character values (the same value as in the filename of the input engineering file): PIX (pixel list mode data) HIS (histogram mode data) CNT (count rate mode data)
