This invention provides a method,
system, storage medium, and terminal for identifying energy-neutral atom source regions. The method includes acquiring the
ephemeris of a deep-space
spacecraft in a geocentric solar ecliptic coordinate
system; acquiring the
field of view of an energy-neutral atom imaging unit within the deep-space
spacecraft; acquiring the
ephemeris of the Sun and Jupiter in a J2000-level ecliptic celestial reference
system centered on the deep-space
spacecraft; acquiring the position of the magnetopause in the geocentric solar ecliptic coordinate system; acquiring the coverage area of the magnetopause in the J2000-level ecliptic celestial reference system centered on the deep-space spacecraft; and determining the source region of the energy-neutral atoms based on the
field of view of the energy-neutral atom imaging unit, the coverage area of the magnetopause, and the
ephemeris of the Sun and Jupiter. The energy-neutral atom source region identification method, system, storage medium, and terminal of this invention can distinguish between energy-neutral atoms from background interstellar sources, the foreground Earth's
magnetosphere, and other source regions, offering speed, accuracy, and strong practicality.
