1. Camera timeline planning
Questions:
What is the distance scale of the “local” interstellar B field in Ahlers plot (IBEX, 1 pc? 10 pc?)
Can you back-trace to remove effects of geomagnetic field? (yes for electrons/positrons, harder for protons)
Does DECO work at arbitrary angles, or needs to be flat on table? (works at arbitrary angles due to wide acceptance plus back entering particles)
