Time span: 1978-11-03 to 1979-06-12
This data set contains SKS plasma spectrometer data on protons and alpha particles. The data are written in IBM 32-bit binary representation. Each logical record contains Moscow time; proton or alpha particle energy spectrum in 24 steps; proton velocity and temperature, and alpha particle velocity, temperature, and density from the non-mass-selected data; proton and alpha particle velocity and temperature from the mass-selected data; and ion density. Orbit data are not included but can be found in the magnetometer data set 78-101A-04A. Estimated accuracy of measurement is 2% for velocity and 20% for temperature, ion density, and ion flux.
