Within this use case you learn about supernovae, exploding or
exploded stars. In particular you will use information on the Crab
Nebula (the 1054 aD supernova registered by Chinese astronomers) to
derive its distance: an example of how some very important information
may be gained from very simple arguments and geometry.

*** EUV-SYN *** Synchronous synoptic maps of the corona in the
extreme-UV (EUV), built from series of SoHO/EIT observations, in each
of the 4 wavelength bands of the instrument.
Synchronous synoptic maps are maps of the EUV radiance in different
wavelength bands on the full solar sphere, in heliographic
(Carrington) longitude and latitude, where data are taken as close as
possible to a reference time. They capture the state of the corona at
any given reference time by including data taken as close as possible
to this time.
EUV-SYN is available as part of the generic MEDOC interface which is
currently located at https://idoc-medoc.ias.u-psud.fr/. These
interfaces are based on the CNES SiTools2 framework. EUV-SYN is also
available from IDL and Python scripts, using a specialization of the
generic SiTools2 IDL and Python clients developed by MEDOC.

Description:
These are reprocessed measurements by the Engergetic Particle
Detector (EPD) instrument onboard the Galileo spacecraft that orbited
Jupiter and measured intensities of ion and electron radiation in the
keV and MeV energy range. This set is version 31 of reprocessing and
version 1.0 of PDS delivery. The TOFxE and DeltaExE files include
event data of ion measurements. Event data are different than the
channelized data in the high, medium, and low resolution files. Event
data record the full information of a measured particle. Every "event"
is the measurement of a time of flight (TOF) within the instrument and
energy deposited within a detector (TOFxE file), or two energy values
deposited within the two detector layers (DeltaExE file). The
deposited energy values are generally different from the energy the
particle has in the ambient space. Event data provides measured values
in the native resolution of the instrument. Because such high
resolution increases data volume, event data cannot be taken
continuously and downlinked all the time. Only the provided subset of
this data was kept. The files are comma separated. Invalid entries
will have values of -1.000000E+38. Times are provided in the format
Year.DOYHHMMSSM (first column) and fractional year (second column)
More information can be found in the User Guide. This file includes
measurements by the EPD/CMS/DeltaExE instrument. For each counted
event, the energy deposited in the two solid state detector layers
(Ej_keV and Ek_keV columns) of the instrument are recorded.
