... Where we have just a single image we assume a probabilistic mode of source detection such that, at a given image pixel, if the probability that the observed value at that pixel could have arisen through statistical fluctuation of the background at that pixel lies below a certain limiting probability , the pixel is considered to contain a source. In XMM practice it is likelihood rather than itself which is employed; in this case the detection criterion is for to exceed the cutoff . ...

... The low energy plasma composition spectrometer AMEI-2 is built to be able to find in the low energy range of the phase space (E, q, j) and separate the fluxes of the major ion species in the magnetotail - H+, He++, He+ and O+, and analyse their energy and angular distributions. ... Electrostatic angular scanning in one direction and the use of the spin of the satellite to sample the other angle give the ability to measure 2-D distributions for each ion specie several times per spin. ...
