DOIAbstract
International audienceThe Perseverance rover is exploring Jezero crater on Mars since February 2021. SuperCam instrument is part of the scientific payload, combining five different techniques in order to characterize the targets to sample: LIBS (Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy), Raman and Visible and Infrared (VISIR) spectroscopies, Sound Recording and a colored Imager. Thirty-six calibration targets have been developed for this instrument. Twenty-three of these calibration targets are dedicated to the LIBS technique, corresponding to rocks and/or minerals. Raman and VISIR spectroscopy have their own calibration targets but may also use the LIBS mineral targets as reference on Mars to test mineral detections. The choice and the fabrica...
