The stepsize is such that the opposite ends of the cross are separated by the size of the target in the given direction. For Jupiter, two CTS spectra are recorded every 60 seconds over 10000 channels (16 bits coding). For moon monitoring, two CTS spectra are recorded every 30 seconds over 210 channels (16 bits coding).

| SWI_JUP_LIMB_RASTER_PS_V1 | Investigation of Jupiter’s stratospheric winds, temperature and composition,
targeting one (or more) molecular line(s) at the planetary limb with a 3 resolution in latitude.
The investigation of Jupiter’s stratospheric dynamics (winds) requires measuring the Doppler shifts induced by zonal winds on strong lines. The observations require a very high signalto-
noise ratio ( 100) and a very high spectral resolution (100kHz). Similar requirements for
the investigation of Jupiter’s stratospheric chemical inventory and temperature as a function of
latitude. At each limb position, a short 10-point across-limb scan of the continuum emission
is performed with the CCH to derive a posteriori the instrument pointing. Two CTS spectra are
recorded for 60 seconds over 10000 channels (16 bits coding), and two CCH measurements (20
bits coding) are recorded for 0.1 second. Position-switch calibration method. | SWI |

A coarser spectral resolution (i.e. 500kHz) is sufficient for detections. This mode is nominally
meant for deep integrations and implies numerous repetitions. A short 10-point across-limb
scan of the continuum emission is performed with the CCH to derive a posteriori the instrument
pointing. Two CTS spectra are recorded for 60 seconds over 10000 channels (16 bits coding), and
two CCH measurements (20 bits coding) are recorded for 0.1 second. Position-switch calibration
method. | SWI |
