Helios 2 E8 (Keppler) Hourly Particle Fluxes

ResourceID
spase://NASA/NumericalData/Helios2/E8/PT1H

Description

Data set records contain hourly count rates of protons and
electrons in 16 energy ranges (protons: 15 differential channels between 21 and
677 keV, plus >677 keV; electrons: 15 differential channels between 17 and 835
keV, plus >835 keV), each in 16 22.5 deg azimuthal sectors. Accumulation times
for each count rate are also given. No spacecraft position information is
included. Data are from the E8 experiment on Helios 2.
