.. warning:: The following message will be deprecated (2012-10-20). The SPICE issues are slightly chaotic due to the quick works during the proposal period, so that re-organization and refactoring should be made. Refer to :ref:`juice-spice-readme`. .. _pep-spice-readme: PEP dedicated SPICE information (Deprecated 121022) =================================================== Data file (kernel file) should be downloaded manually, and saved into any local disk. One can specify the location of the file manually calling :mod:`spice.furnsh`. They are not in the git repository because some of them are too big to save into repository. Kernel locations ---------------- The data comes from ftp://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/naif/generic_kernels otherwise mentioned. lsk +++ LSK of ``naif0009.tls`` is needed. spk +++ SPK of ``de421.bsp`` may be needed for Jupiter relative to the Sun and the Earth. SPK of ``jup230l.bsp`` may be needed for Jovian moons relative to the Jupiter. pck +++ PCK of ``pck00010.tpc`` may be needed. For axis transformation?? (Probably FK is also needed but will see.) .. _pep_spice_private_kernel: Private kernel ++++++++++++++ In addition to the above kernels, private spice kernel is added. So far, I made JSE frame definition (as same definition as GSE) in ``spice/jse_111130.tf``. This kernel is, under the version of v0.1beta on 111130, automatically added without specifying in the pyanarc setting file by :func:`pyana.pep.pep_spice.get_default_pepspice`. In the future, official definition of JSE frame (or equivalent) will be provided from mission team. In such a case, we should remove this functionality from the module. More sophisticated way ---------------------- Using :mod:`pyana.pep.pep_spice` module, you may load all the needed kernels from ``.pyanarc`` file. Refer to the module description :mod:`pyana.pep.pep_spice`.
