COMMENT This file contains beam maps constructed from sightings of Jupiter
COMMENT during the first year of MAP observations. Data here are for the
COMMENT differencing assembly indicated by the DA keyword. The contents of the
COMMENT four 250x250 arrays are identified as follows from the CTYPE3 value:
COMMENT 1 = beam map for Side A, in mK, antenna temperature
COMMENT 2 = statistical noise for each side A pixel, in mK, antenna temp.
COMMENT 3 = beam map for Side B, in mK, antenna temperature
COMMENT 4 = statistical noise for each side B pixel, in mK, antenna temp.
COMMENT Pixels with no coverage have values of zero. Beam response has not
COMMENT been corrected for the input transmission imbalance (A/B asymmetry).
COMMENT Origin of the focal plane coordinates [Xbeam,Ybeam] is the primary
COMMENT optic axis for either the A or B side; the individual antenna feeds
COMMENT are clustered about this axis.
