Description
Solar Orbiter, Level 2 Data, Energetic Particle Detector, Electron and Proton Telescope, Rates.
EPT measures electrons and ions in the lower part of the energetic particle spectrum. It
effectuates measurements in 4 different fields of view :
* Anti-Sunward Flow. Detector looks in the direction of the mean Parker spiral towards the Sun.
* Sunward Flow. Detector looks opposite to the Sun direction.
* Northward Flow. Detector looks towards the south ecliptic hemisphere.
* Southward Flow. Detector looks towards the north ecliptic hemisphere.
Parameter ID uses Detector looking directon.
Additionally, EPT has 2 channels that separate electrons and ions:
* Magnet channel. Uses a permanent magnet to deflect electrons. It measures protons with energies between 25 keV and 6.5 MeV and alpha particles up to 25 MeV.
* Foil channel. Equipped with a foil that absorbs ions, it measures electrons in the energy range 25–500 keV. Ions with energies above 400 keV can penetrate the foil, contaminating the electron measurements.

Caveats
Ions with energies around 500 keV can penetrate the foil and give a signal in the electron
channel. In the presence of high ion flux, there could be a considerable contamination from ions in this product.
