Title: | Juno's Earth flyby: the Jovian infrared Auroral Mapper preliminary results | Authors: | ADRIANI, Alberto Moriconi, M. L. MURA, Alessandro TOSI, Federico Sindoni, G. NOSCHESE, RAFFAELLA CICCHETTI, ANDREA FILACCHIONE, GIANRICO |
Issue Date: | 2016 | Journal: | ASTROPHYSICS AND SPACE SCIENCE | Number: | 361 | Issue: | 8 | First Page: | 272 | Abstract: | The Jovian InfraRed Auroral Mapper, JIRAM, is an image-spectrometer onboard the NASA Juno spacecraft flying to Jupiter. The instrument has been designed to study the aurora and the atmosphere of the planet in the spectral range 2-5 μm. The very first scientific observation taken with the instrument was at the Moon just before Juno's Earth fly-by occurred on October 9, 2013. The purpose was to check the instrument regular operation modes and to optimize the instrumental performances. The testing activity will be completed with pointing and a radiometric/spectral calibrations shortly after Jupiter Orbit Insertion. Then the reconstruction of some Moon infrared images, together with co-located spectra used to retrieve the lunar surface temperature, is a fundamental step in the instrument operation tuning. The main scope of this article is to serve as a reference to future users of the JIRAM datasets after public release with the NASA Planetary Data System. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/30354 | URL: | https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10509-016-2842-9 | ISSN: | 0004-640X | DOI: | 10.1007/s10509-016-2842-9 | Bibcode ADS: | 2016Ap&SS.361..272A | Fulltext: | open |
