CASSINI S MIMI INCA SENSOR CALIBRATED DATA V1.0

To obtain the images, INCA measures the arrival directions, energy and mass species of Energetic Neutral Atoms (ENA's) using the relatively new technique of ENA imaging. INCA also can be commanded to obtain very high sensitivity ion measurements, providing the angular, energy and species distributions of in-situ O and H ions.

The Cassini Magnetospheric Imaging Instrument(MIMI) Imaging Neutral Camera (INCA) calibrated data set includes all image data collected from the MIMI Data Processing Unit during the Saturn tour. The original data has been decommutated, decoded, calibrated and further processed by software at the Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). The calibrated image data is provided in three forms: an averaged form where the original image N x N pixel images pixels intensity are averaged to a single value for one species and time-of-flight (TOF) combination, browse images which display rows and columns of images for one species and TOF combination, and movies which display averaged ENA image skymaps.
