CDPP 3DView web-service for SMILE SXI synthetic X-ray observations

Résumé

The SMILE (ESA/CAS) mission is designed to investigate the dynamic response of the Earth’s magnetosphere to the solar wind impact in a global manner through simultaneous X-ray and UV imaging and in situ plasma and magnetic field measurements. The UK-led Soft X-ray Imager (SXI ; Sembay et al. 2016) will measure soft X-ray emission resulting from the radiative de-excitation of the multi-charged ions (C, N, O, ...) of the solar wind which charge-exchange (SWCX) with planetary neutrals in the Earth’s magnetosheath and cusps. These emissions are proportional to the solar wind ion flux and to the density of the neutral targets and are therefore sensitive to variations in these quantities. In regions of solar wind plasma pileup, such as the subsolar magnetosheath and polar cusps, the emission is enhanced, paving the way for imaging of these key regions of the Sun-Earth system. The SMILE Modeling Working Group (MWG ; https://smile.alaska.edu/) strives to collect and homogenize the parameters of various simulations and provide synthetic observations to help interpret the future SMILE data. LATMOS has been developing test-particle simulations to complement the traditional MHD approach (see talk by Xu et al.). The MWG simulation library will be integrated to the ESA SMILE L4 product database. LATMOS and IRAP have proposed a new web-service in the 3DView tool, developed and maintained by CDPP (Centre de Données de Physique des Plasmas), in order to support the scientific feedback of the SMILE mission. The service proposes the possibility to visualize an SWCX X-ray intensity/flux map for SMILE observation configurations and propose a 3D scene to facilitate the comprehension of the geometry of the observation. We present the basic functionalities of the web-service and future developments considered in order to enhance the inter-operability between the MWG simulation archive and future SXI observations.
