10   - <Description>The Active Monitor Box of Electrostatic Risks (AMBER) is a double-head thermal
11   - electron and ion electrostatic analyzer (energy range 0-30 keV) that was launched onboard
12   - the Jason-3 spacecraft in 2016. The next generation AMBER instrument, for which a first
13   - prototype was developed and then calibrated at the end of 2017, constitutes a significant
14   - evolution that is based on a single head to measure both species alternatively.
15   - The instrument developments focused on several new sub-systems (front-end electronics, highvoltage
16   - electronics, mechanical design) that permit to reduce instrument resources down to ~ 1 kg and 1.5 W.
17   - AMBER is designed as a generic radiation monitor with a twofold purpose: (1) measure magnetospheric
18   - thermal ion and electron populations in the range 0-35 keV, with significant scientific potential
19   - (e.g., plasmasphere, ring current, plasma sheet), and (2) monitor spacecraft electrostatic
20   - charging and the plasma populations responsible for it, for electromagnetic cleanliness and
21   - operational purposes.

  10 + <Description>The AMBRE experiment onboard the ocean topography mapper JASON-3 aims at measuring
  11 + the spacecraft potential as well as auroral particle precipitation using two top-hat analyzers
  12 + for electrons and ions in the 20 eV–28 keV energy range. The JASON-3 spacecraft has a nearly
  13 + circular orbit at an altitude of 1,336 km with an inclination of 66°, at times probing the equatorward
  14 + part of the auroral oval in a nearly tangential manner upon leaving the outer radiation belt.
  15 + AMBRE consists of two coupled top-hat analyzers, one for ions and the other for electrons in the 20 eV–28 keV
  16 + energy range. The field of view of both spectrometers is 180° × 6° centered on the zenith. The 180° plane
  17 + of view is divided into four anodes, the two central ones (sectors 2 and 3) looking at precipitating
  18 + particles while the two side ones (sectors 1 and 4) record nearly trapped particles (note that the angular
  19 + resolution of each anode is only ~35°). The geometries of both electron and ion analyzers are identical,
  20 + except that the electron analyzer has an entrance grid with a transparency of 10% (Sauvaud & Payan, 2017).
  21 + The AMBRE spectrometers provide particle spectra with 128, 32, or 16 energy steps with a time resolution
  22 + that varies from 0.5 to 2 s. The geometrical factor of a single anode is 1.7 · 10−3 cm2.ster.eV/eV for ions
  23 + and 1.5 · 10−4 cm2.ster.eV/eV for electrons.
