      <Description>The Solar Energetic Particle (SEP) instrument is part of the Particles and Fields 
        Package and determines the impact of SEPs on the upper atmosphere.

Goals:
    * Determine SEP input into the atmosphere as a function of altitude
    * Determine SEP heating, ionization, and sputtering of upper atmosphere
    * Detect the highest energy pickup ions (>30 to 100s of keV)

Observations:
    * Characterize solar particles in an energy range that affects upper atmosphere and ionospheric processes (~120 – 200 km)
    * Time resolution adequate to capture major SEP events ( less 1 hour)
    
 Technical details and heritage:
    * Two dual double-ended telescopes
    * Four look directions per species, optimized for parallel and perpendicular Parker Spiral viewing
    * Protons and heavier ions from ~25 keV to 12 MeV
    * Electrons from ~25 keV to 1 MeV
    * Energy fluxes 10 to 106 eV/cm2-sec-ster-eV
    * Better than 50% energy resolution
    * Heritage from (nearly identical to) SST on THEMIS
