T wo W ide-angle I maging N eutral-atom S pectrometers (TWINS) is a NASA Explorer
Mission-of-Opportunity to stereoscopically image the Earth's magnetosphere for the first …

The IMAGE spacecraft uses photon and neutral atom imaging and radio sounding
techniques to provide global images of Earth's inner magnetosphere and upper atmosphere …

Energetic neutral atom (ENA) imaging is a powerful technique, which can remotely probe
the properties of distant hot plasmas. Hot plasmas are abundant at the heliospheric …

The energetic neutral atom (ENA) images obtained by the ISEE and POLAR satellites
pointed the way toward global imaging of the magnetospheric plasmas. The Imager for …

Carbon foils have been successfully used for several decades in space plasma instruments
to detect ions and neutral atoms. These instruments take advantage of two properties of the …

Over the past several decades, a number of groups have successfully developed and flown
space instruments based on ultrathin (0.5–3.5 μ g cm− 2 or∼ 2–17 nm nominal thickness) …

This study is the first to combine energetic neutral atom (ENA) observations from Two Wide‐
Angle Imaging Neutral‐Atom Spectrometers (TWINS) and Interstellar Boundary Explorer …

Empirical models for the plasma densities in the inner magnetosphere, including
plasmasphere and polar magnetosphere, have been in the past derived from in situ …
