Voyager 2 Energetic Particle (LECP) data from the Jupiter far
encounter period between 1979-07-08T05:39:11 and 1979-07-11T08:18:30.
The data set provides 3.2 minute counting rate and flux measurements
during the instrument stepping operation.

Data Set Abstract |
This far encounter step data set consists of the counting
rate and flux data for electrons and ions from the Low Energy
Charged Particle (LECP) experiment on Voyager 2 while the
spacecraft was within the vicinity of Jupiter. This instrument
measures the intensities of in-situ charged particles
( >13 keV electrons and >24 keV ions) with various levels of
discrimination based on energy range and mass species. A
subset of almost 100 LECP channels are included in this data
set. The LECP data are globally calibrated to the extent
possible. Particles include electrons, protons, alpha particles,
and light, medium, and heavy nuclei particles. The far encounter
data are 3.2 minute rate and flux measurements within 1/8 of the
LECP instrumental motor rotation period (the angular scanning
periods, or step period). |
