Definition phase for thermal ion dynamics experiment for OPEN
Abstract
The Thermal Ion Dynamics Experiment (TIDE) combines differential measurements of angle, energy, and mass to determine the detailed distribution function of low energy magnetospheric ions in the range of 0 to 100 eV. Goals included designing a 1 sq cm entrance aperture, minimizing trajectory divergence at exist aperture, and minimizing internal scattering. Design parameters were used to construct the test model.
