HENA  

Definition

  • The High-Energy Neutral Atom (HENA) imager on the IMAGE spacecraft detects energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) in the 10-500 keV energy range. HENA imaging focuses principally on the ring current, inner plasma sheet, and substorm injection boundary. HENA is a modified version of the Cassini INCA instrument, which will provide global images of ENA emissions from Saturn's magnetospheric ion populations. The HENA lead investigator is Donald G. Mitchell, of the Applied Physics Laboratory. For more information, see: http://pluto.space.swri.edu/IMAGE/HENA_description.html (en)
