Description

The data and diagnostics subsystem of the LTP hardware and software are at present essentially ready for delivery. In this presentation we intend to describe the scientific and technical aspects of this subsystem, which includes thermal diagnostics, magnetic diagnostics and a radiation monitor, as well as the prospects for their integration within the rest of the LTP. We will also sketch a few lines of progress recently open towards the more demanding diagnostics requirements which will be needed for LISA.
