Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

195
Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy  (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used....

Area of Science:

  • Planetary science
  • Astrobiology
  • Geophysics

Background:

  • NASA's Europa Clipper mission aims to explore Europa's habitability.
  • Understanding Europa's ocean composition is key to assessing its potential for life.
  • Surface composition provides crucial clues about subsurface processes and habitability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the Mapping Imaging Spectrometer for Europa (MISE) instrument.
  • To outline MISE's science investigations, design, operations, and data products.
  • To detail how MISE will contribute to Europa Clipper's mission objectives.

Main Methods:

  • MISE is an infrared compositional spectrometer operating from 0.8 to 5 μm.
  • It offers 10 nm spectral resolution and 25 m spatial sampling at 100 km altitude.
  • The instrument will map surface composition globally with 300 cross-track pixels.

Main Results:

  • MISE will discriminate between water ice states.
  • It will identify key non-ice components like salts, acids, and organics.
  • Trace materials and thermal signatures will also be detectable.

Conclusions:

  • MISE data will significantly advance understanding of Europa's surface geology and composition.
  • Combined with other Europa Clipper instruments, MISE will inform habitability assessments.
  • The instrument's findings will contribute to understanding Europa's ocean and ice shell.
