ROSETTA-ORBITER 67P SREM 2 EXTENSION 2 MTP028: Radiation Count Rates

Radiation count rates and their standard deviations measured by the Standard Radiation Environment Monitor (SREM) on the Rosetta spacecraft. The data are CODMAC Level 2 Experiment Data Records targeting comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko during the Medium Term Plan 28 period of the EXTENSION 2 mission phase. The dataset is provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

Use Cases

• Analyzing radiation environment variability around comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko based on count rates.
• Calibrating or validating radiation models for spacecraft missions based on SREM instrument measurements.
• Studying the correlation between spacecraft position and radiation levels during the EXTENSION 2 mission phase.
• Assessing instrument performance and data quality based on provided standard deviations.

Strengths

• Data is CODMAC Level 2, indicating a processed, validated data record.
• Includes standard deviations for the count rates, providing a measure of data uncertainty.
• Targets a specific celestial body (comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko) and mission phase (EXTENSION 2 MTP028).

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.
