  1. ALICE PLUTOCRUISEPDS Review, January 2014 Jeff Morgenthaler Planetary Science Institute

  2. ALICE Basicsalice_ssr.pdf (STERNETAL2007) (SOC)

  3. Alice on New Horizons – two FOVspayload_ssr.pdf (WEAVERETAL2007)

  4. ALICE two FOVspayload_ssr.pdf (WEAVERETAL2007)

  5. ALICE two FOVs • SOC slit big, slit filled resolution is 172 Å • Atmosphere may not fill slit – better resolution possible 2 – 3 Å • Airglow filled-slit resolution is 9 Å

  6. Data directory structure • Example: 20070715_004679 • Intelligible date • First 6 of 10 digit MET (a little abstract, but OK) • 10 digit MET good for 317 years • File example: ali_0046791576_0x4b1_eng_1.fit • Inst; full MET; ApID;eng=raw; sci=cal; SOC ver

  7. ALICE spectra REQDESC = 'Calibration on rho Leo histogram observations (1.5 hr sec, ~6.3 kHz) ρ Leo stretch: asinh (top), linear (bottom)

  8. ALICE calibration on ρ Leo IUE Standard Stars Atlas (NEWSIPS) http://www-int.stsci.edu/~jinger/iweb/B/hd091316.html

  9. Rating of ALICE PLUTOCRUISE • Completeness • Stuff is there – aareadme.txt could be improved • Intelligibility • FITS and ASCII file formats well documented • Good • Interpretability • Could be improved with more notes in SEQ file or a cookbook of how to piece multiple files together (meta-meta data) • Archive quality • Inflight calibration of P-ALICE is important. • A bit of an internal brain dump (see Interpretability), so currently tough for a Future Analyst to get into the brain of the P-ALICE team

  10. Suggested improvements • AAREADME.TXT: • Required Reading  Required Reading (see also Details) (cleans up SSR confusion) • Add seq_alice_plutocruise.tab to Required Reading list • nh_trajectory is in document, not catalog (correct place?) • ICD: • needs an acronym list • Are APIDs the same as ApIDs? • Table 7-3 is confusing because ApIDs are used that are not defined (11 and 14)
