Introduction

SPICE instrument and capabilities

SPICE papers:

  • Instrument paper: Astron. Astrophys., 642, A14, 2020. DOI, ADS
  • First results: Submitted
  • In-flight calibration: Not available yet
  • Other papers can be found in the SPICE ADS library

SPICE online information:

Data products

The data levels, FITS files, and headers are described in

The full SPICE data set (to be cited in papers) has a DOI: doi:10.5270/esa-lbmdy7c. DOIs will also be attributed to each data release.

Find data

UiO catalogue:

  • Can be generated with IDL/SolarSoft (SSW) from a local data tree:
    1. Make sure $SPICE_DATA points to the data tree you want to have catalogued
    2. Run SPICE_GEN_CAT. The catalogue file will be written to the data tree root directory (you need to have write access)
    3. Run SPICE_CAT
  • The catalogue file generated from all SPICE files is accessible through the UiO website (restricted to SPICE team)
  • How to use it in Python
  • A CSV export of the part of the catalogue corresponding to each release is provided with the release.

SOAR (and institute mirrors):

In the future: VSO. VSO through SSW or sunpy. Sunpy/Fido
