DATA_SET_TERSE_DESCRIPTION
DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION Counting rate from the D2 detector in the Cosmic RaySystem (CRS) electron telescope (TET) on Voyager 2 duringthe Uranus encounter.The D2 detector nominally responds to electrons withkinetic energies above approximately 2.5 MeV(see detector description for details). SAMPLING_PARAMETER_NAME = TIME SAMPLING_PARAMETER_RESOLUTION = 6.0 MINIMUM_SAMPLING_PARAMETER = N/A MAXIMUM_SAMPLING_PARAMETER = N/A SAMPLING_PARAMETER_INTERVAL = 96.0 MINIMUM_AVAILABLE_SAMPLING_INT = 96.0 SAMPLING_PARAMETER_UNIT = SECOND DATA_SET_PARAMETER_NAME = D2 RATE NOISE_LEVEL = 0.000 DATA_SET_PARAMETER_UNIT = COUNTS/SECOND

INSTRUMENT_HOST_ID VG2
INSTRUMENT_NAME COSMIC RAY SUBSYSTEM
INSTRUMENT_ID CRS
INSTRUMENT_TYPE CHARGED PARTICLE ANALYZER
NODE_NAME planetary plasma interactions
ARCHIVE_STATUS ARCHIVED
CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE Each data point represents a six-second accumulation,so that the statistical uncertainty is obtained accordingto Poisson statistics by taking the square root of one sixthof the counting rate. However, larger uncertainties areassociated with the conversion from counting rate to flux(see the DATA_SET_OR_INST_PARM_DESC)
