| Data Set Abstract |
THIS DATA SET CONTAINS ELECTRON PARAMETERS IN THE PLS ENERGY
RANGE (10-5950 EV) AT SATURN DURING THE VOYAGER 1 ENCOUNTER.
PARAMETERS ARE CALCULATED IN SEVERAL WAYS. TOTAL MOMENT DENSITY
AND TEMPERATURE ARE GIVEN. EACH ELECTRON SPECTRUM IS ALSO FIT
WITH A THERMAL COMPONENT AND 1-3 HOT COMPONENTS DEPENDING ON HOW
MANY MAXWELLIANS ARE NEEDED TO FIT THE ENTIRE DISTRIBUTION. THE
MOMENT DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE OF THE HOT COMPONENT IS CALCULATED
AFTER THE THERMAL COMPONENT IS SUBTRACTED FROM THE SPECTRUM. THE
CHI-SQUARE VALUE FOR EACH FIT IS GIVEN. THE SPACECRAFT CHARGE IS
NOT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT, AND MAY RESULT IN FACTOR OF 2-3 ERRORS IN
THE THERMAL ELECTRON DENSITY. DATA IS UNRELIABLE INSIDE 6 RS AND
IN THE OCCULTATION REGIONS. A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF THIS DATA
SET IS IN SITTLER ET AL. (1983). DATA FORMAT: THE DATA SET IS IN
ASC FORMAT AND CAN BE READ USING THE FOLLOWING FORTRAN
