ROSETTA-ORBITER 67P COSIMA 3 V4.0

Metadata Updated: August 22, 2025

The Rosetta COSIMA data contains the operational history of the 72 dust collecting substrates from the installation inside the instrument. This dataset contains data from 2002-05-29 up to 2015-10-20. The operations are either expose, storage, spectra, peaks, scans, heating, imaging or grain lists. The data is grouped by the substrate and time. Up to the 2014-08 the aim of the data has been the instrument health and operational functionality, not statistically significant substrate background spectra. From 2014-08 onward the D0 substrate set was used to collect dust collected in the vicinity of 67P/CHURYUMOV GERASIMENKO 1 (1969 R1) and dust analysis with TOF-SIMS. From 2014-10-23 onward due to an instrument failure, the SIMS data became scientifically unusable. While other SIMS parameter sets were tested, substrates CF were exposed from mid 2015-12 and C7 from mid 2015-02. End of March 2015 SIMS became operational again. D1 and CD were exposed and SIMS was done with CD, CF and D1. In June TOF-SIMS was done with CF and D1. In July C7 was measured again, while CD was used for expose and TOF-SIMS up to October. D2 was exposed in September. This data set supersedes all previous COSIMA datasets, like RO-C-COSIMA-3-V1.0, RO-C-COSIMA-3-V2.0, RO-C-COSIMA-3-V3.0, RO-CAL-COSIMA-2-V1.0 and RO-CAL-COSIMA-3-V3.0 Also, in the above previous versions, the values of the temperature in the HK data where given in Celsius although Kelvin was written in the description of the table in the FMT file
