During the course of the MESSENGER mission the EPPS science team may update previously released data products or documentation; for example, updates may occur due to changes in calibration data or procedures. Updates will be reported in this file. Older versions of data and documentation will not be retained in the archive. Section A of this file contains an entry for each MESSENGER release with general information about the contents of the release, in order from newest to oldest. Updates to previously released files are reported in these entries, along with any known errata. Section B of this file contains general notes, if any, concerning the archive as a whole. ******** SECTION A ******** RELEASE NUMBER: 13 RELEASE DATE: 2015-03-06 DATA COVERAGE: 2011-03-23 to 2014-03-17 PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR This release includes the following updates and product redeliveries: 1) Redelivery of EPS_EPSP products from 2012-03-26 through 2013-03-17 to remove duplicate record entries that resulted from a processing error. 2) Full redelivery of the FIPS DDR products (except for FIPS_ARRDIR products that are being superseded) due to the new FIPS calibration introduced in release 12 CDR's and improvements made to the SEP filtering procedure to reduce the orbits with SEP-contminated data. The delivery of these products cover: FIPS_ESPEC from 2011-03-26 through 2013-03-17 FIPS_NOBS from 2011-03-23 through 2013-03-17 FIPS_NTP from 2011-03-26 through 2013-03-17 FIPS_PCHANG from 2011-03-26 through 2013-03-17 3) New products: FIPS_FLUXMAP (replacing FIPS_ARRDIR as it is a more useful representation of plasma behavior), FIPS_ERPCHANG (a 2-D pitch angle product), and FIPS_ROTMSO (a viewing normalization product). The initial delivery of these products covers: FIPS_FLUXMAP from 2011-03-26 through 2014-03-17 FIPS_ERPCHANG from 2011-03-26 through 2014-03-17 FIPS_ROTMSO from 2011-03-23 through 2014-03-17 4) Due to the retirement of the FIPS_ARRDIR product with this release, the data set version is updated to 2.0 and the DATA_SET_ID is updated to MESS-E/V/H/SW-EPPS-3-FIPS-DDR-V2.0. Version 2.0 of this archive fully supersedes Version 1.0. Gaps noted in this archive are appropriate and fall into two categories: 1) Small periods where there is no EDR data 2) Larger periods where the regions of interest were not observed Please see the EPPS_DDR_SIS for additional details on new products. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELEASE NUMBER: 11 RELEASE DATE: 2014-03-07 DATA COVERAGE: 2012-03-26 to 2013-03-17 PRODUCT TYPES RELEASED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: EPPS DDR PRODUCT TYPES UPDATED FOR THIS ARCHIVE: None.
