      <Description>EPS	is	a	compact	TOF	telescope	with	two	main	components:	a	TOF	section	and	a	Solid	State	 
Detectors	(SSD)	array.	The	SSD	array	comprises	six	ion-implanted	planar	silicon	detectors,	
each	with	four	pixels	(two	dedicated	to	ion	measurements	and	two	to	electron	
measurements)	for	a	total	of	24	SSD	elements.	Particles	enter	the	system	through	a	
mechanical	collimator	that	delimits	the	look	direction	into	the	instrument.	Particles	that	
pass	through	the	collimator	then	transit	through	a	thin,	composite	Start	foil	(polyimide	+	 
aluminum,	10	µg/cm2)	and	onto	the	TOF	region	of	the	instrument.</Description>
