DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION |
Data Set Overview : A preliminary examination of the Ultraviolet Spectrometer (UVS) data revealed no obvious detections of anything which might correspond with the impact phenomena. In order to investigate the possibility that more subtle impact-related events were present in the data and to establish a formal statistical upper limit for the non-detection of the impacts, we performed a statistical analysis as described in the DPS poster paper 'Voyager 2 UVS Observations of Jupiter During the Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 Impact Events', by R. J. Vervack et al. [VERVACKETAL1995]

CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE |
Confidence Level Overview : Our final conclusion in that paper was that no statistically significant detections were made for any of the impacts. The largest single candidate event observed corresponded to impact A, but the probability of observing random noise with the same spectral signature was determined to be approximately 8 per cent.
