Description

This data set contains 24s (fast data rate) or 48s (slow rate) solar wind ion plasma parameters obtained during 1977-1983 solar wind seasons (~July - ~January) when the spacecraft's local time of apogee was on the Earth's dayside. Plasma parameters include ion density, flow speed, flow longitude and latitude angles, perpendicular (minimum) and parallel (maximum) temperatures, and alpha-to-proton density ratio. Data are available through the CDAWeb interface and, as daily files via ftp, in ASCII from nssdcftp and in CDF from CDAWeb's ftp area. The data are from LANL's Cross-Fan Solar Wind Ion Experiment, a companion to LANL's Fast Plasma Analyzer (FPE).
