JUNO ASC: Calibrated Radiation Flux from Jupiter Orbit

NASA's Juno spacecraft radiation flux data derived from hotspot counts on its Advanced Stellar Compass camera CCDs. The dataset was last updated in March 2026. It likely contains calibrated measurements of radiation encountered by Juno during its mission around Jupiter.

Use Cases

• Modeling Jupiter's radiation belts based on calibrated flux measurements
• Analyzing spacecraft instrument performance based on CCD hotspot counts
• Studying radiation exposure for future missions based on Juno's empirical data
• Calibrating other radiation sensors based on the ASC-derived flux methodology

Strengths

• Data originates from NASA's Juno mission, a primary source for Jupiter science.
• Calibrated flux values suggest processed, ready-to-use measurements.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
