Operations overview----------------------LAP operations are described in the operations report,IRFU-ROS-OPR-ESC3 in the DOCUMENT/FLIGHT_REPORTS directory of thisdata set.B. Data set status------------------This data set contains scientifically useful data from the RosettaRPC-LAP instrument. The data contained are primary instrument data,in instrument units (TM) and NOT calibrated to physical units(volts and amperes) and with instrumental offsets NOT removed.See the caveats in Section D below for data use.C. Scientific use-----------------While the edited data are scientifically useful to instrumentexperts, these data files are supplied mainly for long-term archivingand reference purposes and are not intended or suitable forscientific use by the wider community. There are also separatederived-level data sets for the same time period, providing directlyuseful scientific quantities (e.g. electron density, wave spectra,electron temperature).For information on exact data products (science data, geometry files,housekeeping), calibration, file formats and file naming conventions,etc., consult the EAICD, RO-IRFU-LAP-EAICD, in the DOCUMENTdirectory. For the specifics of this mission phase, seethe operations report, IRFU-ROS-OPR-ESC3 inthe DOCUMENT/FLIGHT_REPORTS directory.D. Caveats----------This section covers caveats relevant for this specific data set. Forgeneral caveats, see the EAICD in the DOCUMENT directory.D.1. General caveat-------------------The archived data set is complete, but it has not been possible toscan every part of it for every possible problem before delivery, sothere may be numerous data quality issues in addition to this list.While the data clearly have a great science potential, analysis has tobe done with great care. Anybody using the present data set is stronglyencouraged to contact a LAP CoI for cooperation.E. Updates since previous version---------------------------------- MAJOR: Data reorganized into fewer files with longer time series and sorted by type of measurement.- Bugfix: Sweep timestamp increments corrected.See section Version history.F. Version history------------------Note that there has been changes in the organization of data sets:- Previously, some data sets were split into several data sets, one per MTP, and therefore used the DATA_SET_ID description string to signify which MTP.- Previously, data sets which covered the entire mission phase used the description strings EDITED and CALIB.- New edited and calibrated data sets use the DATA_SET_ID description strings EDITED2 and CALIB2 to signify significants updates in the data set pipeline and the basic format of the data sets (fewer files and longer time series). The versioning of these data sets starts from V1.0.Therefore, this data set supersedes the following data set(s): RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP018-V1.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP019-V1.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP020-V1.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP021-V1.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP018-V2.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP019-V2.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP020-V2.0 RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-MTP021-V2.0

CITATION_DESCRIPTION A. I. Eriksson, R. Gill, E.P. G. Johansson, and F. L. Johansson, Rosetta RPC-LAP archive ofedited data from the COMET ESCORT 3 mission phase,RO-C-RPCLAP-2-ESC3-EDITED2-V1.0, ESA Planetary Science Archive andNASA Planetary Data System, 2020.
ABSTRACT_TEXT This data set contains EDITEDdata from Rosetta RPC-LAP, acquired during the COMET ESCORT 3 missionphase where the primary target was the comet 67P/CHURYUMOV-GERASIMENKO 1(1969 R1). It contains uncalibrated raw data, i.e. the digital output ofthe instrument. This version reorganizes the data into fewer files withlonger time series and sorted by type of measurement. It also supersedesprevious versions that were split into MTPs. The version number startsover from V1.0 due to a change in naming convention.
