Data Set Abstract |
This data set contains derived values
of the electron density and moment temperature at Jupiter during the
Voyager 2 encounter in the PLS voltage range (10-5950 eV/q). Adjacent low
and high energy electron measurements are combined to form a composite
spectra which is used for the moment calculation. These assume isotropic
distributions and correct for positive spacecraft charge when applicable
and interpolate electron spectra below the 10 eV instrument threshold
before performing the integration over velocity. Data format: column 1 is
time (yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ), column 2 is the moment density in cm^-3,
column 3 the temperature in eV. Each row has format (a24, 2(1x,1pe9.2)).
Values of -9.99e+10 indicate that the parameter could not be obtained from
the data using the standard analysis technique. Additional information
about this data set and the instrument which produced it can be found
elsewhere in this catalog. |
