Data Set Abstract |
This data set gives the best available values for ion densities,
temperatures, and velocities near Neptune derived from data obtained
by the Voyager 2 plasma experiment. All parameters are obtained by
fitting the observed spectra (current as a function of energy) with
Maxwellian plasma distributions, using a non-linear least squares
fitting routine to find the plasma parameters which, when coupled
with the full instrument response, best simulate the data. |
