TIMED SEE Level2A XPS Solar Irradiance Data

Description

The 12 X-Ray Photometers (XP) aboard SEE perform full-disk irradiance measurements of the Sun for about 3 minutes every orbit (97 minutes) which usually gives 14-15 measurements per day. 8 of the XPs produce XUV signals (more info on XP coatings) and one other XP provides a hydrogen Lyman-alpha measurement (121.5 nm). The XPS Level 2A data is time averaged over each measurement, after being 1-AU corrected and removing flares. The 1-AU correction is provided.
