Description

Calibrated radiance data (RDRs) are one of the primary data products of the THEMIS misson. Radiance is a unit of measure of how much light energy is passed through or in this case emitted from a defined area. The units THEMIS uses (W cm-2 micron-1 sr-1, Watts per centimeter squared per micrometer per steradian) are not SI but can be converted easily if needed.
