- Description
This file contains numerical moments computed from measurements of the Los Alamos Magnetospheric Plasma Analyzer (MPA) [Bame et al., Rev. Sci. Inst., in press 1993]. The moments are presented in s/c coordinates: the z-axis is aligned with the spin axis, which points radially toward the center of the Earth; the x-axis is in the plane containing the spacecraft spin axis and the spin axis of the Earth, with +X generally northward; and the y-axis points generally eastward. Polar angles are measured relative to the spin axis (+Z), and azimuthal angles are measured around the z-axis, with zero along the +X direction. The moments are computed for three 'species': lop (low-ener. ions, ~1eV/e-~130eV/e); hip (hi-ener. ions, ~130eV/e-~45keV/e); alle (electrons, ~30eV - ~45keV ). The electron measurements are obtained 21.5 secs after the ion measurements. Epoch is the measurement time appropriate for the ions. The moments are computed after the fluxes are corrected for background and s/c potential. Algorithms for these corrections are relatively unsophisticated, so the moments are suspect during times of high background and/or high spacecraft potential. Because the determined spacecraft potential is not very precise, the magnitude of the low-energy ion flow velocity is probably not accurate, but the flow direction is well determined. Tperp and Tpara are obtained from diagonalization of the 3-dimensional temperature matrix, with the parallel direction assigned to the eigenvalue which is most different from the other two. The corresponding eigenvector is the symmetry axis of the distribution and should be equivalent to the magnetic field direction. The eigenvalue ratio Tperp/Tmid, which is provided for each species, is a measure of the symmetry of the distribution and should be ~1.0 for a good determination. Several of the parameters have a fairly high daily dynamic range and for survey purposes are best displayed logarithmically. These parameters are indicated by non-zero 'SCALEMIN' values in this file. A quality flag value of 1 indicates that the values are suspect because of unreliable location info.

MAG - ACE Magnetic Field Experiment References: http://www.srl.caltech.edu/ACE/ The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study. However, to avoid confusion and misunderstanding, it is recommended that users consult with the appropriate ACE team members before publishing work derived from the data. The ACE team has worked hard to ensure that the level 2 data are free from errors, but the team cannot accept responsibility for erroneous data, or for misunderstandings about how the data may be used. This is especially true if the appropriate ACE team members are not consulted before publication. At the very least, preprints should be forwarded to the ACE team before publication.

- Description
The Electron, Proton, and Alpha Monitor (EPAM) is composed of five telescope apertures of three different types. Two Low Energy Foil Spectrometers (LEFS) measure the flux and direction of electrons above 30 keV (geometry factor = 0.397 cm2*sr), two Low Energy Magnetic Spectrometers (LEMS) measure the flux and direction of ions greater than 50 keV (geometry factor = 0.48 cm2*sr), and the Composition Aperture (CA) measures the elemental composition of the ions (geometry factor = 0.24 cm2*sr). The telescopes use the spin of the spacecraft to sweep the full sky. Solid-state detectors are used to measure the energy and composition of the incoming particles. For more information about the EPAM instrument, visit the EPAM Home Page at JHU/APL: http://sd-www.jhuapl.edu/ACE/EPAM/ The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study.

- AC_H1_SIS doi:10.48322/9kmb-8280
- Description
The Solar Isotope Spectrometer (SIS) is designed to provide high resolution measurements of the isotopic composition of energetic nuclei from He to Ni (Z=2 to 28) over the energy range from ~10 to ~100 MeV/nucleon. During large solar events, when particle fluxes can increase over quiet-time values by factors of up to 10000, SIS measures the isotopic composition of the solar corona, while during solar quiet times SIS measures the isotopes of low-energy Galactic cosmic rays and the composition of the anomalous cosmic rays which are thought to originate in the nearby interstellar medium. The solar energetic particle measurements are useful to further our understanding of the Sun, while also providing a baseline for comparison with the Galactic cosmic ray measurements carried out by CRIS. SIS has a geometry factor of ~40 cm2--sr, which is significantly larger than previous satellite solar particle isotope spectrometers. It is also designed to provide excellent mass resolution during the extremely high particle flux conditions which occur during large solar particle events.

- Description
The Cosmic Ray Isotope Spectrometer (CRIS) on the Advanced Composition Explorer(ACE) spacecraft is intended to be a major step in ascertaining the isotopic composition of the Galactic Cosmic Rays(GCRs) and hence a major step in determining their origin. The GCRs consist, by number, primarily of hydrogen nuclei(~92%) and helium nuclei (~7%). The energetic nuclei from He to Ni (Z=2 to 28) over the energy range from ~10 to ~100 MeV/nucleon. During large solar events, when particle fluxes can increase over quiet-time values by factors of up to 10000, CRIS measures the isotopic composition of the solar corona, while during solar quiet times CRIS measures the isotopes of low-energy Galactic cosmic rays and the composition of the anomalous cosmic rays which are thought to originate in the nearby interstellar medium. The solar energetic particle measurements are useful to further our understanding of the Sun, while also providing a baseline for comparison with the Galactic cosmic ray measurements carried out by CRIS. CRIS has a geometry factor of ~40 cm2--sr, which is significantly larger than previous satellite solar particle isotope spectrometers. It is also designed to provide excellent mass resolution during the extremely high particle flux conditions which occur during large solar particle events.

- Description
The Electron, Proton, and Alpha Monitor (EPAM) is composed of five telescope apertures of three different types. Two Low Energy Foil Spectrometers (LEFS) measure the flux and direction of electrons above 30 keV (geometry factor = 0.397 cm2*sr), two Low Energy Magnetic Spectrometers (LEMS) measure the flux and direction of ions greater than 50 keV (geometry factor = 0.48 cm2*sr), and the Composition Aperture (CA) measures the elemental composition of the ions (geometry factor = 0.24 cm2*sr). The telescopes use the spin of the spacecraft to sweep the full sky. Solid-state detectors are used to measure the energy and composition of the incoming particles. For more information about the EPAM instrument, visit the EPAM Home Page at JHU/APL: http://sd-www.jhuapl.edu/ACE/EPAM/ The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study. However, to avoid confusion and misunderstanding, it is recommended that users consult with the appropriate ACE team members before publishing work derived from the data. The ACE team has worked hard to ensure that the level 2 data are free from errors, but the team cannot accept responsibility for erroneous data, or for misunderstandings about how the data may be used.

- Description
The SEPICA Instrument on ACE The Solar Energetic Particle Ionic Charge Analyzer is the sensor on ACE, which is used to determine the charge state distribution of energetic particle distributions. SEPICA is designed to measure the ionic charge state, Q, the kinetic energy, E, and the nuclear charge, Z, of energetic ions above 0.2 MeV/Nuc. This includes ions accelerated in solar flares as well as in interplanetary space during energetic storm particle (ESP) and co-rotating interaction region (CIR) events. For low mass numbers SEPICA also separates isotopes -- for example, 3He and 4He. For more information about the SEPICA instrument, visit the SEPICA Home Page at University of New Hampshire: http://www.ssg.sr.unh.edu/tof/Missions/Ace/index.html?sepicamain.html The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study.

- AC_H2_SIS doi:10.48322/eq1k-gs80
- Description
The Solar Isotope Spectrometer (SIS) is designed to provide high resolution measurements of the isotopic composition of energetic nuclei from He to Ni (Z=2 to 28) over the energy range from ~10 to ~100 MeV/nucleon. During large solar events, when particle fluxes can increase over quiet-time values by factors of up to 10000, SIS measures the isotopic composition of the solar corona, while during solar quiet times SIS measures the isotopes of low-energy Galactic cosmic rays and the composition of the anomalous cosmic rays which are thought to originate in the nearby interstellar medium. The solar energetic particle measurements are useful to further our understanding of the Sun, while also providing a baseline for comparison with the Galactic cosmic ray measurements carried out by CRIS. SIS has a geometry factor of ~40 cm2--sr, which is significantly larger than previous satellite solar particle isotope spectrometers. It is also designed to provide excellent mass resolution during the extremely high particle flux conditions which occur during large solar particle events.

- Description
The ULEIS Instrument on ACE The Ultra Low Energy Isotope Spectrometer measures ion fluxes over the charge range from H through Ni from about 20 keV/nucleon to 10 MeV/nucleon, thus covering both suprathermal and energetic particle energy ranges. Exploratory measurements of ultra-heavy species (mass range above Ni) will also be performed in a more limited energy range near 0.5 MeV/nucleon. ULEIS will be studying the elemental and isotopic composition of solar energetic particles, and the mechanisms by which these particles are energized in the solar corona. ULEIS will also investigate mechanisms by which supersonic interplanetary shock waves energize ions. For more information about the ULEIS instrument, visit the ULEIS Home Page at JHU/APL: http://sd-www.jhuapl.edu/ACE/ULEIS/ The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study. However, to avoid confusion and misunderstanding, it is recommended that users consult with the appropriate ACE team members before publishing work derived from the data.

- Description
The Cosmic Ray Isotope Spectrometer (CRIS) on the Advanced Composition Explorer(ACE) spacecraft is intended to be a major step in ascertaining the isotopic composition of the Galactic Cosmic Rays(GCRs) and hence a major step in determining their origin. The GCRs consist, by number, primarily of hydrogen nuclei(~92%) and helium nuclei (~7%). The energetic nuclei from He to Ni (Z=2 to 28) over the energy range from ~10 to ~100 MeV/nucleon. During large solar events, when particle fluxes can increase over quiet-time values by factors of up to 10000, CRIS measures the isotopic composition of the solar corona, while during solar quiet times CRIS measures the isotopes of low-energy Galactic cosmic rays and the composition of the anomalous cosmic rays which are thought to originate in the nearby interstellar medium. The solar energetic particle measurements are useful to further our understanding of the Sun, while also providing a baseline for comparison with the Galactic cosmic ray measurements carried out by CRIS. CRIS has a geometry factor of ~40 cm2--sr, which is significantly larger than previous satellite solar particle isotope spectrometers. It is also designed to provide excellent mass resolution during the extremely high particle flux conditions which occur during large solar particle events.

- Description
The Electron, Proton, and Alpha Monitor (EPAM) is composed of five telescope apertures of three different types. Two Low Energy Foil Spectrometers (LEFS) measure the flux and direction of electrons above 30 keV (geometry factor = 0.397 cm2*sr), two Low Energy Magnetic Spectrometers (LEMS) measure the flux and direction of ions greater than 50 keV (geometry factor = 0.48 cm2*sr), and the Composition Aperture (CA) measures the elemental composition of the ions (geometry factor = 0.24 cm2*sr). The telescopes use the spin of the spacecraft to sweep the full sky. Solid-state detectors are used to measure the energy and composition of the incoming particles. For more information about the EPAM instrument, visit the EPAM Home Page at JHU/APL: http://sd-www.jhuapl.edu/ACE/EPAM/ The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study. However, to avoid confusion and misunderstanding, it is recommended that users consult with the appropriate ACE team members before publishing work derived from the data. The ACE team has worked hard to ensure that the level 2 data are free from errors, but the team cannot accept responsibility for erroneous data, or for misunderstandings about how the data may be used. This is especially true if the appropriate ACE team members are not consulted before publication. At the very least, preprints should be forwarded to the ACE team before publication.

For more information about the SWICS instrument, visit the SWICS Home Page at http://solar-heliospheric.engin.umich.edu/ace. The quality of ACE level 2 data is such that it is suitable for serious scientific study. However, to avoid confusion and misunderstanding, it is recommended that users consult with the appropriate ACE team members before publishing work derived from the data. The ACE team has worked hard to ensure that the level 2 data are free from errors, but the team cannot accept responsibility for erroneous data, or for misunderstandings about how the data may be used. This is especially true if the appropriate ACE team members are not consulted before publication. At the very least, preprints should be forwarded to the ACE team before publication.

- Description
This ionogram was digitized from the original Alouette 2 analog telemetry data on 7-track tape using the facilities of the Data Evaluation Laboratory at GSFC (Code 500). This data restoration project is headed by Dr. R.F. Benson (GSFC, Code 692). Ionograms were digitized at the rate of 40,000 16-bit samples/sec. This sample rate is higher than the Nyquist frequency of 30 kHz. The sample frequency of 40 kHz provides a measurement every 25 microseconds corresponding to an apparent range (c*t/2) interval of 3.747 km. Each ionogram consists of a fixed-frequency and and a swept-frequency portion. The time resolution is typically 24 seconds. More information can be found at https://nssdc/space/isis/isis-status.html

- AMPTECCE_H0_MEPA doi:10.48322/zz7m-pv06
- Description
This dataset contains high time resolution MEPA rate channel data. MEPA is a particle telescope with an ION head and a TOF head. The TOF head can measure species and energy, while the ION head only measures the energy of the ions, which are mostly protons. In fact, the counts in the ION head are all assumed to be protons up to 1830 keV. The ION head has 10 energy channels, and so the first 8 channels (that are all below 1830 keV) are assumed to be all protons, and the 2 channels above this are assumed to be all alphas. The TOF head has 9 energy channels that are generic (ions of any species are counted) and some species specific channels for protons, helium, oxygen, and iron. The AMPTE data was divided into records, with each record holding data from 4 spins. In any record, all the TOF species channels are always present, but only one of either a) the 10 ION head channels or b) 9 TOF generic channels are present. The majority of records have the ION head channels. The AMPTE spacecraft had a spin period of about 6 seconds. The exact spin period varies slightly and is included in the data. MEPA data is sectored into 32 directions per spin. Nearly all channels are reported as sectored values, but to conserve telemetry, many channels are only read out every other spin, or every fourth spin. In this data, all values are summed so that they are reported every fourth spin. Note that in the original AMPTE datesets, there was a timing problem which required that 19.75 seconds (one Major Frame of telemetry) be added to time values extracted from the processing system. This correction has already been made in the particle data in this dataset.

- Description
This is the hourly-averaged data from the Apollo 15 Solar Wind Spectrometer instrument, reformatted by NSSDC for easier access and use. During the lunar night there is no solar wind signal so there are data gaps of about 15 days each lunation. Users should refer to the data set documentation paper entitled 'ALSEP solar wind spectrometer plasma data as observed at the Apollo 12 and 15 landing sites,' by Goldstein, Clay,Snyder, and Neugebauer, which is contained in the online Data Set Catalog at https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/publicationDisplay.do?id=B55381-000A

- Description
Electron Drift Instrument Electric field measured by the drift velocity of monoenergetic artificial electron beams injected perpendicularly to the ambient magnetic field
- Modification History
Non-regularly spaced time-series! It contains quarter-spin, half-spin and spin resolution data with all qualities: GOOD/CAUTION/BAD. The values 2/1/0 for GOOD/CAUTION/BAD are written to Status[0]. Data from spin, half spin and quarter spin IFF files are merged by an algorithm that can be thought of as a 'use more if not lower quality' algorithm. The analysis is performed on each spin's worth of data starting with spin resolution. If there is more data of half spin resolution with equal or better quality, it replaces the spin resolution data. Likewise, if there is more data of quarter spin resolution with equal or better quality, it replaces the half spin resolution data. The electric field and drift velocity measurements are given in the inertial frame (a correction has been applied for the spacecraft velocity). DATASET VERSION HISTORY VERSION 01: The first version of this dataset was converted by the CAA from source CDF files provided by the EDI team. This conversion involved insertion of a half interval parameter that was not included in the source files and correction of missing or bad metadata. The half interval determination was based on comparison with the spin time-tags provided in the EDI CSDS Prime Parameter data file. In some cases a consistent determination could not be found with the PP data and the half-interval was set to the minimum, quarter spin, 1 second, value. CDF to CEF Conversion was done using revision 1.1 (2006/11/06) of edi_mp_convert.pro Metadata correction was done using revision 1.1 (2006/11/06) of edi_fix_fatal.sh FILE VERSION HISTORY For this initial conversion the CAA CEF files have retained the same file version number as the source CDF files. In most cases file versions are V13 or V14. VERSION 02: Minor changes

- C1_CP_EFW_L3_E3D_INERT
- Description
The EFW (Electric Field and Wave) instrument consists of four spherical probes deployed orthogonally on 44-meter-long wire booms in the spin plane of the spacecraft. The potential differences between opposing probes, separated by 88 m tip-to-tip, are measured to provide electric field measurements in two directions, thus providing the full electric field vector in the spin plane of the spacecraft. Additionally, the potential differences between each of the probes and the spacecraft are measured, providing an estimate of the spacecraft potential relative to the plasma, which can be used as a proxy for the ambient electron density.

- C1_CP_EFW_L3_P
- Description
The EFW (Electric Field and Wave) instrument consists of four spherical probes deployed orthogonally on 44-meter-long wire booms in the spin plane of the spacecraft. The potential differences between opposing probes, separated by 88 m tip-to-tip, are measured to provide electric field measurements in two directions, thus providing the full electric field vector in the spin plane of the spacecraft. Additionally, the potential differences between each of the probes and the spacecraft are measured, providing an estimate of the spacecraft potential relative to the plasma, which can be used as a proxy for the ambient electron density. The output analogue signals from the preamplifiers connected to the spherical probes are also provided to the wave instruments (STAFF, WHISPER and WBD) for analysis of high frequency wave phenomena.

- C1_CP_FGM_5VPS
- Description
Each Cluster spacecraft carries an identical FGM instrument (Fluxgate Magnetometer) to measure the DC magnetic field vector. Each instrument, in turn, consists of two triaxial fluxgate magnetometers and an onboard data processing unit. The instrument samples the magnetic field at a cadence of 22 Hz (67 Hz in Burst mode). In order to minimise the magnetic background of the spacecraft, one of the magnetometer sensors (the outboard, or OB sensor) is located at the end of one of the two 5 m radial booms of the spacecraft, the other (the inboard, or IB sensor) at 1.5 m inboard from the end of the boom. Since the start of the scientific operations on February 1, 2001, only the outboard sensor on each satellite has been used.

- C1_CP_WHI_WAVE_FORM_ENERGY
- Description
The Wave of HIgh frequency and Sounder for Probing of Electron density by Relaxation (WHISPER) performs the measurement of the electron density on the four satellites of the CLUSTER project. The two main purposes of the WHISPER experiment are to record the natural waves and to make a diagnostic of the electron density using the sounding technique. The various working modes and the fourier transforms calculated on board provide a good frequency resolution obtained in the bandwidth 2-83 kHz. Onboard data compression by the Digital Wave Processing (DWP) intrument allows a good dynamic and level resolution of the electric signal amplitude.

- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats 1) EDI's automated analysis algorithm has a known susceptibility to producing occasional incorrect values of the drift velocities (and electric fields). The code attempts to prevent these bad values to be output to the cdf file. No further removal is done in the validation process. 2) When drift velocities become sufficiently large, there can be a 180-degree ambiguity in drift direction that is usually flagged in bit 7 (counting from 0) of Status Byte 3. 3) There are two methods to analyze a spin's worth of EDI data. If bits 5 & 6 in Status Byte 3 are NOT set, the employed method was triangulation. If either bit 5 or 6 are set, then the results are from time-of-flight analysis. 4) The reported drift velocities and electric field refer to inertial coordinates, i.e., have been corrected for spacecraft velocity. However, the magnitude errors (in %) and the angle errors (in degrees), reported in Status Bytes 5 & 6, respectively, refer to the spacecraft frame and have NOT yet been converted to inertial coordinates. 5) The reduced chi-square reported as a data word is a measure of the goodness-of-fit of the triangulation analysis.

- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats This is PEACE PP/SP data version 3.1, produced at MSSL Based on onboard moments but using corrected geometric factors which account for uplinked changes of the values used in onboard calibration as well as estimated changes due to variable MCP gain performance Onboard moments are calculated for up to three energy ranges. Photoelectron contamination may affect 0, 1 or 2 of these ranges EFW PP probe-spacecraft potential was used to select the energy ranges to be excluded to remove misleading photoelectron contributions. Note that the density may be underestimated if there are both plasma electrons and photoelectrons in the lowest energy range When 88h58 is used for the HEEA sensor, sometimes the entire plasma electron population and photoelectrons are in just the lowest of the 3 energy ranges. This data has been deleted in this release of the PEACE PPs Data is deleted if the spacecraft electric potential is too large for the simple correction procedure to work or there is no EFW PP data available Measured electron energies have not been corrected for their acceleration by the spacecraft electric potential Onboard moments use onboard energy tables, efficiencies and response surfaces. Any errors in these parameters cannot be corrected in ground data processing Before 2001-09-11 the onboard energy efficiencies were not accurate, which caused the density in the solar wind to be overestimated. This data has been removed in this release of the PEACE PPs The calculation of T_par, T_perp and Q_par used PP FGM data The data is for context and information only. It is not suitable for detailed analysis, but may be used for event selection The next iteration of PP/SP moments will be of a higher quality Please see links under http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/www_plasma/missions/cluster/clusterII.html for more information Please contact the PEACE PI to request science quality data Automatically validated by UKCDC Product delivered pre-validated by the PI institute

Produced in accordance with CSDS file specification Reference Document for CSDS CDF File Design, DS-QMW-TN-0003
- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats Two types of parameters are provided by WHISPER: 1) Density values (and quality): N_e_res and N_e_res_q, are related to sounding operations. The N_e_res value is calculated from an algorithm for resonance recognition, which cannot take account of all level of information available to the experimenter. The reliability of N_e_res parameters derived at the CSDS level is thus limited in an unknown manner. The N_e_res_q parameter (one value for each N_e_res data point) provides a crude idea of the probability that the N_e_res value is actually correct. A value of 0 means that the value is probably wrong, a value above 80 that it is probably correct. Anything in between reflects a crude evaluation of the chances. Refer to PI for details. 2) Wave power values: E_pow_f4, E_pow_f5, E_pow_f6, E_pow_su and E_var_ts, are related to recording of natural wave emissions. Those parameters, not affected by variations in instrument's transfer functions, are globally OK. However, two factors can affect the precision of the measurements: a) the occasional presence of spurious emissions created by operations of the EDI instrument increases the wave power values measured on SC1, SC2 and SC3, from an unknown amount, b) the limited dynamical range of the instrument leads to an underestimation of the E_pow parameters values when the voltage difference measured by the double sphere antenna signal in the 2 - 80 kHz band is higher than 150 mVp or 600 mVp (depending of the gain chosen). As a consequence, high values have to be taken with special caution.

The dataset also includes instrument mode, data quality and the angles required to orient the measurement with respect to the magnetic field and to the GSE coordinate system. ... CALIBRATION: ... The procedure used in computing the calibrated Electric Field and Magnetic Field values found in this file can be obtained from the document 'cluster_wbd_calibration.pdf'. Because the calibration was applied in the time domain using a simple equation the raw counts actually measured by the WBD instrument can be obtained by using these equations and solving for 'Raw Counts', keeping in mind that this number is an Integer ranging from 0 to 255. Since DC offset is a real number, the resultant when solving for raw counts will need to be converted to the nearest whole number. ... CONVERSION TO FREQUENCY DOMAIN: ... In order to convert the WBD data to the frequency domain via an FFT, the following steps need to be carried out: 1) If Electric Field, first divide calibrated data by 1000 to get V m^-1; 2) Apply window of preference, if any (such as Hanning, etc.); 3) Divide data values by sqrt(2) to get back to the rms domain; 4) perform FFT (see Bandwidth variable notes for non-continuous modes); 5) divide by the noise bandwidth, which is equal to the sampling frequency divided by the FFT size (see table below for appropriate sampling frequency); 6) multiply by the appropriate constant for the window used, if any. ... Bandwidth Sample Rate --------- ------------ 9.5 kHz 27.443 kHz 19 kHz 54.886 kHz 77 kHz 219.544 kHz ... COORDINATE SYSTEM USED: ... One axis measurements made in the Antenna Coordinate System, i.e., if electric field measurement, it will either be Ey or Ez, both of which are in the spin plane of the spacecraft, and if magnetic field measurement, it will either be Bx, along the spin axis, or By, in spin plane. ...

In addition, sample code for reverse calibration may be found in the above mentioned document.
- Calibrated AC WBD Electric Field [WBD_Elec]
WARNING: If Translation is not equal to 0, this variable represents the electric field amplitude associated with the down-converted waveform. This affects the apparent frequency content of the electric field amplitude when plotted vs. time, as well as the frequency of the derived components when an FFT is applied to the electric field data. Refer to the WBD User Guide 'CAA_EST_UG_WBD_v20.pdf' and calibration report 'CAA_EST_CR_WBD_v20.pdf' for more information.

- Description
Electron Drift Instrument Electric field measured by the drift velocity of monoenergetic artificial electron beams injected perpendicularly to the ambient magnetic field
- Modification History
Non-regularly spaced time-series! It contains quarter-spin, half-spin and spin resolution data with all qualities: GOOD/CAUTION/BAD. The values 2/1/0 for GOOD/CAUTION/BAD are written to Status[0]. Data from spin, half spin and quarter spin IFF files are merged by an algorithm that can be thought of as a 'use more if not lower quality' algorithm. The analysis is performed on each spin's worth of data starting with spin resolution. If there is more data of half spin resolution with equal or better quality, it replaces the spin resolution data. Likewise, if there is more data of quarter spin resolution with equal or better quality, it replaces the half spin resolution data. The electric field and drift velocity measurements are given in the inertial frame (a correction has been applied for the spacecraft velocity). DATASET VERSION HISTORY VERSION 01: The first version of this dataset was converted by the CAA from source CDF files provided by the EDI team. This conversion involved insertion of a half interval parameter that was not included in the source files and correction of missing or bad metadata. The half interval determination was based on comparison with the spin time-tags provided in the EDI CSDS Prime Parameter data file. In some cases a consistent determination could not be found with the PP data and the half-interval was set to the minimum, quarter spin, 1 second, value. CDF to CEF Conversion was done using revision 1.1 (2006/11/06) of edi_mp_convert.pro Metadata correction was done using revision 1.1 (2006/11/06) of edi_fix_fatal.sh FILE VERSION HISTORY For this initial conversion the CAA CEF files have retained the same file version number as the source CDF files. In most cases file versions are V13 or V14. VERSION 02: Minor changes

- C2_CP_EFW_L3_E3D_INERT
- Description
The EFW (Electric Field and Wave) instrument consists of four spherical probes deployed orthogonally on 44-meter-long wire booms in the spin plane of the spacecraft. The potential differences between opposing probes, separated by 88 m tip-to-tip, are measured to provide electric field measurements in two directions, thus providing the full electric field vector in the spin plane of the spacecraft. Additionally, the potential differences between each of the probes and the spacecraft are measured, providing an estimate of the spacecraft potential relative to the plasma, which can be used as a proxy for the ambient electron density. The output analogue signals from the preamplifiers connected to the spherical probes are also provided to the wave instruments (STAFF, WHISPER and WBD) for analysis of high frequency wave phenomena.

- C2_CP_FGM_5VPS
- Description
Each Cluster spacecraft carries an identical FGM instrument (Fluxgate Magnetometer) to measure the DC magnetic field vector. Each instrument, in turn, consists of two triaxial fluxgate magnetometers and an onboard data processing unit. The instrument samples the magnetic field at a cadence of 22 Hz (67 Hz in Burst mode). In order to minimise the magnetic background of the spacecraft, one of the magnetometer sensors (the outboard, or OB sensor) is located at the end of one of the two 5 m radial booms of the spacecraft, the other (the inboard, or IB sensor) at 1.5 m inboard from the end of the boom. Since the start of the scientific operations on February 1, 2001, only the outboard sensor on each satellite has been used.

- C2_CP_WHI_ACTIVE
- Description
The Wave of HIgh frequency and Sounder for Probing of Electron density by Relaxation (WHISPER) performs the measurement of the electron density on the four satellites of the CLUSTER project. The two main purposes of the WHISPER experiment are to record the natural waves and to make a diagnostic of the electron density using the sounding technique. The various working modes and the fourier transforms calculated on board provide a good frequency resolution obtained in the bandwidth 2-83 kHz. Onboard data compression by the Digital Wave Processing (DWP) intrument allows a good dynamic and level resolution of the electric signal amplitude.

Produced in accordance with CSDS file specification Reference Document for CSDS CDF File Design, DS-QMW-TN-0003 PP & SP data is generated at MSSL, then provided to UK-CDHF
- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats This is PEACE PP/SP data version 3.1, produced at MSSL Based on onboard moments but using corrected geometric factors which account for uplinked changes of the values used in onboard calibration as well as estimated changes due to variable MCP gain performance Onboard moments are calculated for up to three energy ranges. Photoelectron contamination may affect 0, 1 or 2 of these ranges EFW PP probe-spacecraft potential was used to select the energy ranges to be excluded to remove misleading photoelectron contributions. Note that the density may be underestimated if there are both plasma electrons and photoelectrons in the lowest energy range When 88h58 is used for the HEEA sensor, sometimes the entire plasma electron population and photoelectrons are in just the lowest of the 3 energy ranges. This data has been deleted in this release of the PEACE PPs Data is deleted if the spacecraft electric potential is too large for the simple correction procedure to work or there is no EFW PP data available Measured electron energies have not been corrected for their acceleration by the spacecraft electric potential Onboard moments use onboard energy tables, efficiencies and response surfaces. Any errors in these parameters cannot be corrected in ground data processing Before 2001-09-11 the onboard energy efficiencies were not accurate, which caused the density in the solar wind to be overestimated. This data has been removed in this release of the PEACE PPs The calculation of T_par, T_perp and Q_par used PP FGM data The data is for context and information only. It is not suitable for detailed analysis, but may be used for event selection The next iteration of PP/SP moments will be of a higher quality Please see links under http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/www_plasma/missions/cluster/clusterII.html for more information Please contact the PEACE PI to request science quality data Automatically validated by UKCDC Product delivered pre-validated by the PI institute

- Modification History
Produced in accordance with CSDS file specification Reference Document for CSDS CDF File Design, DS-QMW-TN-0003
- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats Two types of parameters are provided by WHISPER: 1) Density values (and quality): N_e_res and N_e_res_q, are related to sounding operations. The N_e_res value is calculated from an algorithm for resonance recognition, which cannot take account of all level of information available to the experimenter. The reliability of N_e_res parameters derived at the CSDS level is thus limited in an unknown manner. The N_e_res_q parameter (one value for each N_e_res data point) provides a crude idea of the probability that the N_e_res value is actually correct. A value of 0 means that the value is probably wrong, a value above 80 that it is probably correct. Anything in between reflects a crude evaluation of the chances. Refer to PI for details. 2) Wave power values: E_pow_f4, E_pow_f5, E_pow_f6, E_pow_su and E_var_ts, are related to recording of natural wave emissions. Those parameters, not affected by variations in instrument's transfer functions, are globally OK. However, two factors can affect the precision of the measurements: a) the occasional presence of spurious emissions created by operations of the EDI instrument increases the wave power values measured on SC1, SC2 and SC3, from an unknown amount, b) the limited dynamical range of the instrument leads to an underestimation of the E_pow parameters values when the voltage difference measured by the double sphere antenna signal in the 2 - 80 kHz band is higher than 150 mVp or 600 mVp (depending of the gain chosen). As a consequence, high values have to be taken with special caution.

- C2_WAVEFORM_WBD doi:10.48322/8hs9-sg97
- Description
High time resolution calibrated waveform data sampled in one of 3 frequency bands in the range 0-577 kHz along one axis using either an electric field antenna or a magnetic search coil sensor. The dataset also includes instrument mode, data quality and the angles required to orient the measurement with respect to the magnetic field and to the GSE coordinate system. ... CALIBRATION: ... The procedure used in computing the calibrated Electric Field and Magnetic Field values found in this file can be obtained from the document 'cluster_wbd_calibration.pdf'. Because the calibration was applied in the time domain using a simple equation the raw counts actually measured by the WBD instrument can be obtained by using these equations and solving for 'Raw Counts', keeping in mind that this number is an Integer ranging from 0 to 255. Since DC offset is a real number, the resultant when solving for raw counts will need to be converted to the nearest whole number. ... CONVERSION TO FREQUENCY DOMAIN: ... In order to convert the WBD data to the frequency domain via an FFT, the following steps need to be carried out: 1) If Electric Field, first divide calibrated data by 1000 to get V m^-1; 2) Apply window of preference, if any (such as Hanning, etc.); 3) Divide data values by sqrt(2) to get back to the rms domain; 4) perform FFT (see Bandwidth variable notes for non-continuous modes); 5) divide by the noise bandwidth, which is equal to the sampling frequency divided by the FFT size (see table below for appropriate sampling frequency); 6) multiply by the appropriate constant for the window used, if any. ... Bandwidth Sample Rate --------- ------------ 9.5 kHz 27.443 kHz 19 kHz 54.886 kHz 77 kHz 219.544 kHz ... COORDINATE SYSTEM USED: ... One axis measurements made in the Antenna Coordinate System, i.e., if electric field measurement, it will either be Ey or Ez, both of which are in the spin plane of the spacecraft, and if magnetic field measurement, it will either be Bx, along the spin axis, or By, in spin plane. ...

- Description
Electron Drift Instrument Electric field measured by the drift velocity of monoenergetic artificial electron beams injected perpendicularly to the ambient magnetic field
- Modification History
Non-regularly spaced time-series! It contains quarter-spin, half-spin and spin resolution data with all qualities: GOOD/CAUTION/BAD. The values 2/1/0 for GOOD/CAUTION/BAD are written to Status[0]. Data from spin, half spin and quarter spin IFF files are merged by an algorithm that can be thought of as a 'use more if not lower quality' algorithm. The analysis is performed on each spin's worth of data starting with spin resolution. If there is more data of half spin resolution with equal or better quality, it replaces the spin resolution data. Likewise, if there is more data of quarter spin resolution with equal or better quality, it replaces the half spin resolution data. The electric field and drift velocity measurements are given in the inertial frame (a correction has been applied for the spacecraft velocity). DATASET VERSION HISTORY VERSION 01: The first version of this dataset was converted by the CAA from source CDF files provided by the EDI team. This conversion involved insertion of a half interval parameter that was not included in the source files and correction of missing or bad metadata. The half interval determination was based on comparison with the spin time-tags provided in the EDI CSDS Prime Parameter data file. In some cases a consistent determination could not be found with the PP data and the half-interval was set to the minimum, quarter spin, 1 second, value. CDF to CEF Conversion was done using revision 1.1 (2006/11/06) of edi_mp_convert.pro Metadata correction was done using revision 1.1 (2006/11/06) of edi_fix_fatal.sh FILE VERSION HISTORY For this initial conversion the CAA CEF files have retained the same file version number as the source CDF files. In most cases file versions are V13 or V14. VERSION 02: Minor changes

- C3_CP_EFW_L3_E3D_INERT
- Description
The EFW (Electric Field and Wave) instrument consists of four spherical probes deployed orthogonally on 44-meter-long wire booms in the spin plane of the spacecraft. The potential differences between opposing probes, separated by 88 m tip-to-tip, are measured to provide electric field measurements in two directions, thus providing the full electric field vector in the spin plane of the spacecraft. Additionally, the potential differences between each of the probes and the spacecraft are measured, providing an estimate of the spacecraft potential relative to the plasma, which can be used as a proxy for the ambient electron density. The output analogue signals from the preamplifiers connected to the spherical probes are also provided to the wave instruments (STAFF, WHISPER and WBD) for analysis of high frequency wave phenomena.

- C3_CP_FGM_5VPS
- Description
Each Cluster spacecraft carries an identical FGM instrument (Fluxgate Magnetometer) to measure the DC magnetic field vector. Each instrument, in turn, consists of two triaxial fluxgate magnetometers and an onboard data processing unit. The instrument samples the magnetic field at a cadence of 22 Hz (67 Hz in Burst mode). In order to minimise the magnetic background of the spacecraft, one of the magnetometer sensors (the outboard, or OB sensor) is located at the end of one of the two 5 m radial booms of the spacecraft, the other (the inboard, or IB sensor) at 1.5 m inboard from the end of the boom. Since the start of the scientific operations on February 1, 2001, only the outboard sensor on each satellite has been used.

- C3_CP_WHI_ACTIVE
- Description
The Wave of HIgh frequency and Sounder for Probing of Electron density by Relaxation (WHISPER) performs the measurement of the electron density on the four satellites of the CLUSTER project. The two main purposes of the WHISPER experiment are to record the natural waves and to make a diagnostic of the electron density using the sounding technique. The various working modes and the fourier transforms calculated on board provide a good frequency resolution obtained in the bandwidth 2-83 kHz. Onboard data compression by the Digital Wave Processing (DWP) intrument allows a good dynamic and level resolution of the electric signal amplitude.

- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats 1) EDI's automated analysis algorithm has a known susceptibility to producing occasional incorrect values of the drift velocities (and electric fields). The code attempts to prevent these bad values to be output to the cdf file. No further removal is done in the validation process. 2) When drift velocities become sufficiently large, there can be a 180-degree ambiguity in drift direction that is usually flagged in bit 7 (counting from 0) of Status Byte 3. 3) There are two methods to analyze a spin's worth of EDI data. If bits 5 & 6 in Status Byte 3 are NOT set, the employed method was triangulation. If either bit 5 or 6 are set, then the results are from time-of-flight analysis. 4) The reported drift velocities and electric field refer to inertial coordinates, i.e., have been corrected for spacecraft velocity. However, the magnitude errors (in %) and the angle errors (in degrees), reported in Status Bytes 5 & 6, respectively, refer to the spacecraft frame and have NOT yet been converted to inertial coordinates. 5) The reduced chi-square reported as a data word is a measure of the goodness-of-fit of the triangulation analysis.

- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats This is PEACE PP/SP data version 3.1, produced at MSSL Based on onboard moments but using corrected geometric factors which account for uplinked changes of the values used in onboard calibration as well as estimated changes due to variable MCP gain performance Onboard moments are calculated for up to three energy ranges. Photoelectron contamination may affect 0, 1 or 2 of these ranges EFW PP probe-spacecraft potential was used to select the energy ranges to be excluded to remove misleading photoelectron contributions. Note that the density may be underestimated if there are both plasma electrons and photoelectrons in the lowest energy range When 88h58 is used for the HEEA sensor, sometimes the entire plasma electron population and photoelectrons are in just the lowest of the 3 energy ranges. This data has been deleted in this release of the PEACE PPs Data is deleted if the spacecraft electric potential is too large for the simple correction procedure to work or there is no EFW PP data available Measured electron energies have not been corrected for their acceleration by the spacecraft electric potential Onboard moments use onboard energy tables, efficiencies and response surfaces. Any errors in these parameters cannot be corrected in ground data processing Before 2001-09-11 the onboard energy efficiencies were not accurate, which caused the density in the solar wind to be overestimated. This data has been removed in this release of the PEACE PPs The calculation of T_par, T_perp and Q_par used PP FGM data The data is for context and information only. It is not suitable for detailed analysis, but may be used for event selection The next iteration of PP/SP moments will be of a higher quality Please see links under http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/www_plasma/missions/cluster/clusterII.html for more information Please contact the PEACE PI to request science quality data Automatically validated by UKCDC Product delivered pre-validated by the PI institute

The N_e_res value is calculated from an algorithm for resonance recognition, which cannot take account of all level of information available to the experimenter. The reliability of N_e_res parameters derived at the CSDS level is thus limited in an unknown manner. The N_e_res_q parameter (one value for each N_e_res data point) provides a crude idea of the probability that the N_e_res value is actually correct. A value of 0 means that the value is probably wrong, a value above 80 that it is probably correct. Anything in between reflects a crude evaluation of the chances. Refer to PI for details. 2) Wave power values: E_pow_f4, E_pow_f5, E_pow_f6, E_pow_su and E_var_ts, are related to recording of natural wave emissions. Those parameters, not affected by variations in instrument's transfer functions, are globally OK. However, two factors can affect the precision of the measurements: a) the occasional presence of spurious emissions created by operations of the EDI instrument increases the wave power values measured on SC1, SC2 and SC3, from an unknown amount, b) the limited dynamical range of the instrument leads to an underestimation of the E_pow parameters values when the voltage difference measured by the double sphere antenna signal in the 2 - 80 kHz band is higher than 150 mVp or 600 mVp (depending of the gain chosen). As a consequence, high values have to be taken with special caution.

- C3_WAVEFORM_WBD doi:10.48322/y123-4274
- Description
High time resolution calibrated waveform data sampled in one of 3 frequency bands in the range 0-577 kHz along one axis using either an electric field antenna or a magnetic search coil sensor. The dataset also includes instrument mode, data quality and the angles required to orient the measurement with respect to the magnetic field and to the GSE coordinate system. ... CALIBRATION: ... The procedure used in computing the calibrated Electric Field and Magnetic Field values found in this file can be obtained from the document 'cluster_wbd_calibration.pdf'. Because the calibration was applied in the time domain using a simple equation the raw counts actually measured by the WBD instrument can be obtained by using these equations and solving for 'Raw Counts', keeping in mind that this number is an Integer ranging from 0 to 255. Since DC offset is a real number, the resultant when solving for raw counts will need to be converted to the nearest whole number. ... CONVERSION TO FREQUENCY DOMAIN: ... In order to convert the WBD data to the frequency domain via an FFT, the following steps need to be carried out: 1) If Electric Field, first divide calibrated data values by 1000 to get V/m; 2) Apply window of preference, if any (such as Hanning, etc.); 3) Divide data values by sqrt(2) to get back to the rms domain; 4) perform FFT (see Bandwidth variable notes for non-continuous modes); 5) divide by the noise bandwidth, which is equal to the sampling frequency divided by the FFT size (see table below for appropriate sampling frequency); 6) multiply by the appropriate constant for the window used, if any. ... Bandwidth Sample Rate --------- ------------ 9.5 kHz 27.443 kHz 19 kHz 54.886 kHz 77 kHz 219.544 kHz ... COORDINATE SYSTEM USED: ... One axis measurements made in the Antenna Coordinate System, i.e., if electric field measurement, it will either be Ey or Ez, both of which are in the spin plane of the spacecraft, and if magnetic field measurement, it will either be Bx, along the spin axis, or By, in spin plane. ...

- C4_CP_EFW_L3_E3D_INERT
- Description
The EFW (Electric Field and Wave) instrument consists of four spherical probes deployed orthogonally on 44-meter-long wire booms in the spin plane of the spacecraft. The potential differences between opposing probes, separated by 88 m tip-to-tip, are measured to provide electric field measurements in two directions, thus providing the full electric field vector in the spin plane of the spacecraft. Additionally, the potential differences between each of the probes and the spacecraft are measured, providing an estimate of the spacecraft potential relative to the plasma, which can be used as a proxy for the ambient electron density. The output analogue signals from the preamplifiers connected to the spherical probes are also provided to the wave instruments (STAFF, WHISPER and WBD) for analysis of high frequency wave phenomena.

- C4_CP_FGM_5VPS
- Description
Each Cluster spacecraft carries an identical FGM instrument (Fluxgate Magnetometer) to measure the DC magnetic field vector. Each instrument, in turn, consists of two triaxial fluxgate magnetometers and an onboard data processing unit. The instrument samples the magnetic field at a cadence of 22 Hz (67 Hz in Burst mode). In order to minimise the magnetic background of the spacecraft, one of the magnetometer sensors (the outboard, or OB sensor) is located at the end of one of the two 5 m radial booms of the spacecraft, the other (the inboard, or IB sensor) at 1.5 m inboard from the end of the boom. Since the start of the scientific operations on February 1, 2001, only the outboard sensor on each satellite has been used.

- Description
The Wave of HIgh frequency and Sounder for Probing of Electron density by Relaxation (WHISPER) performs the measurement of the electron density on the four satellites of the CLUSTER project. The two main purposes of the WHISPER experiment are to record the natural waves and to make a diagnostic of the electron density using the sounding technique. The various working modes and the fourier transforms calculated on board provide a good frequency resolution obtained in the bandwidth 2-83 kHz. Onboard data compression by the Digital Wave Processing (DWP) intrument allows a good dynamic and level resolution of the electric signal amplitude.

- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats This is PEACE PP/SP data version 3.1, produced at MSSL Based on onboard moments but using corrected geometric factors which account for uplinked changes of the values used in onboard calibration as well as estimated changes due to variable MCP gain performance Onboard moments are calculated for up to three energy ranges. Photoelectron contamination may affect 0, 1 or 2 of these ranges EFW PP probe-spacecraft potential was used to select the energy ranges to be excluded to remove misleading photoelectron contributions. Note that the density may be underestimated if there are both plasma electrons and photoelectrons in the lowest energy range When 88h58 is used for the HEEA sensor, sometimes the entire plasma electron population and photoelectrons are in just the lowest of the 3 energy ranges. This data has been deleted in this release of the PEACE PPs Data is deleted if the spacecraft electric potential is too large for the simple correction procedure to work or there is no EFW PP data available Measured electron energies have not been corrected for their acceleration by the spacecraft electric potential Onboard moments use onboard energy tables, efficiencies and response surfaces. Any errors in these parameters cannot be corrected in ground data processing Before 2001-09-11 the onboard energy efficiencies were not accurate, which caused the density in the solar wind to be overestimated. This data has been removed in this release of the PEACE PPs The calculation of T_par, T_perp and Q_par used PP FGM data The data is for context and information only. It is not suitable for detailed analysis, but may be used for event selection The next iteration of PP/SP moments will be of a higher quality Please see links under http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/www_plasma/missions/cluster/clusterII.html for more information Please contact the PEACE PI to request science quality data Automatically validated by UKCDC Product delivered pre-validated by the PI institute

Produced in accordance with CSDS file specification Reference Document for CSDS CDF File Design, DS-QMW-TN-0003
- Caveats
See CSDS User's Guide, DS-MPA-TN-0015, for post processing caveats Two types of parameters are provided by WHISPER: 1) Density values (and quality): N_e_res and N_e_res_q, are related to sounding operations. The N_e_res value is calculated from an algorithm for resonance recognition, which cannot take account of all level of information available to the experimenter. The reliability of N_e_res parameters derived at the CSDS level is thus limited in an unknown manner. The N_e_res_q parameter (one value for each N_e_res data point) provides a crude idea of the probability that the N_e_res value is actually correct. A value of 0 means that the value is probably wrong, a value above 80 that it is probably correct. Anything in between reflects a crude evaluation of the chances. Refer to PI for details. 2) Wave power values: E_pow_f4, E_pow_f5, E_pow_f6, E_pow_su and E_var_ts, are related to recording of natural wave emissions. Those parameters, not affected by variations in instrument's transfer functions, are globally OK. However, two factors can affect the precision of the measurements: a) the occasional presence of spurious emissions created by operations of the EDI instrument increases the wave power values measured on SC1, SC2 and SC3, from an unknown amount, b) the limited dynamical range of the instrument leads to an underestimation of the E_pow parameters values when the voltage difference measured by the double sphere antenna signal in the 2 - 80 kHz band is higher than 150 mVp or 600 mVp (depending of the gain chosen). As a consequence, high values have to be taken with special caution.

- Description
High time resolution calibrated waveform data sampled in one of 3 frequency bands in the range 0-577 kHz along one axis using either an electric field antenna or a magnetic search coil sensor. The dataset also includes instrument mode, data quality and the angles required to orient the measurement with respect to the magnetic field and to the GSE coordinate system. ... CALIBRATION: ... The procedure used in computing the calibrated Electric Field and Magnetic Field values found in this file can be obtained from the document 'cluster_wbd_calibration.pdf'. Because the calibration was applied in the time domain using a simple equation the raw counts actually measured by the WBD instrument can be obtained by using these equations and solving for 'Raw Counts', keeping in mind that this number is an Integer ranging from 0 to 255. Since DC offset is a real number, the resultant when solving for raw counts will need to be converted to the nearest whole number. ... CONVERSION TO FREQUENCY DOMAIN: ... In order to convert the WBD data to the frequency domain via an FFT, the following steps need to be carried out: 1) If Electric Field, first divide calibrated data by 1000 to get V m^-1; 2) Apply window of preference, if any (such as Hanning, etc.); 3) Divide data values by sqrt(2) to get back to the rms domain; 4) perform FFT (see Bandwidth variable notes for non-continuous modes); 5) divide by the noise bandwidth, which is equal to the sampling frequency divided by the FFT size (see table below for appropriate sampling frequency); 6) multiply by the appropriate constant for the window used, if any. ...

DC Offset values may be used to reverse calibrate the data to the original raw counts and to determine the boundaries of the original transport packets. A description of the procedure may be found in the WBD calibration report 'CAA_EST_CR_WBD_v20.pdf' (see Global attributes section of this file). In addition, sample code for reverse calibration may be found in the above mentioned document.

- CASSINI_MAG_1MIN_MAGNETIC_FIELD doi:10.48322/vfsa-ej68
- Description
Cassini magnetic-field 1 minute averages for the year 2020 in RTN coordinates. RTN coordinates consist of R (radial component, Sun tothe spacecraft), T (tangential component, parallel to the Solar Equatorial plane and perpendicular to R), and N (normal component, completes right handed set). This file contains a subset of all of the Cassini MAG data for 2001consisting of only the data after the day of the last Jupiter bowshock crossing (2001-01-15). This file was produced from raw (L1A) data at the PDS/PPI node usingsoftware provided by the Cassini MAG team, and employing the latest calibration available. The MAG team reports that while range-0 data are well calibrated, higher range data needs improvement (see the RANGE_CHANGES.ASC document for a time history of range changes). Thesedata will be replaced as the calibration is improved." The data are mostly from the fluxgate magnetometer (FGM). The tableat vhm.txt identifies the 52 days in 2000-2004 for which the data are solely from the vector helium magnetometer (VHM). Days not in the table contain only FGM data.VHM_mode variable indicates (value 1) whether data are from VHM The data were produced from raw (L1A) data at the PDS/PPI node using software provided by the Cassini MAG team, and employing the latest calibration available. PDS/PPI produced both 1-sec vectors and 1-min averages. The MAG team reports that while range-0 data are well calibrated for both FGM and VHM, higher range data need improvement. FGM_mode variable indicates (value 0) if data is range-0.Seehttp://www.igpp.ucla.edu/cgi-bin/ditdos?volume=COMAG_0XXX&folder=DOCU MENT/DATA_QUALITY&file=RANGE_CHANGESfor details. In particular, this documentation reports that FGM wasin range=0 for the following extended intervals (plus other brief intervals): 1999/230/05 - 1999/245/07 (YYYY/DDD/HH, inclusive)1999/245/09 - 2000/037/122000/039/00 - 2000/053/182000/053/20 - 2000/056/012000/057/23 - 2002/334/132002/334/17 - 2003/292/182003/292/22 - 2004/046/112004/046/15 - 2004/088/082004/088/12 - 2004/136/062004/136/11 - 2004/174/012004/174/06 - 2004/182/17

- CIRBE_REPTILE-2_L1A_DETECTORS
- Description
CIRBE is a 3U-CubeSat designed and developed by students and engineers at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics. The primary objective of the science mission is to understand the formation of the inner belt (L<2) electrons (100s of keV to multiple MeV), and to determine the source, the intensity and dynamic variations of these electrons. The goal is to make accurate measurements with fine energy resolution (>40 channels) for electrons of 0.3-3 MeV throughout the slot region and inner belt, with secondary measurements of 6.7-35 MeV protons. Such measurements are required to address the following science questions: 1) Where is the break point in terms of energy of electrons for a given event, below which electrons can be transported into the inner belt from the outer belt but above which electrons cannot, and what is the injection mechanism? 2) What is the CRAND contribution to inner belt electrons, and what is the low energy neutron density near Earth? 3) What is the role of wave-particle interactions in shaping inner-belt electron energy spectra? A detailed description of the instrument can be found at https://doi.org/10.1029/2021JA030249. We acknowledge the use of the IRBEM library (4.4.0) to process the data, the latest version of which can be found at .https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6867552.

- CNOFS_CINDI_IVM_500MS doi:10.48322/r9x4-x639
- Description
The Communications/Navigation Outage Forecasting System (C/NOFS) is a prototype operational system designed to monitor and forecast ionospheric scintillation in real-time and on a global scale. In the space-borne segment, C/NOFS will fly a system of proven sensors on-board a three-axis stabilized satellite to detect ionospheric scintillation. This will provide data for global, real-time specification, and 4 hour forecast capability. C/NOFS is a joint effort between the DOD Space Test Program and AFRL (Air Force Research Laboratory). The space test program provides the spacecraft, launch vehicle, launch and first year on-orbit operations. AFRL is responsible for the multi-instrument payload, payload integration and test, model development, data center operations, and product generation and distribution. The C/NOFS payload consists of six instruments: the Planar Langmuir Probe (PLP) for measurements of plasma density, the Vector Electric Field Instrument (VEFI) for measurements of vector electric and magnetic fields, the Ion Velocity Meter (IVM) for measurements of plasma drift velocities and ion temperatures, the Neutral Wind Meter (NWM) for measurements of neutral winds, the C/NOFS Occultation Receiver for Ionospheric Sensing and Specification (CORISS) for remote sensing of the electron density vertical profile, the Coherent Electromagnetic Radio Tomography (CERTO) for measurements of ionospheric scintillation parameters. Both the Neutral Wind Meter (NWM) and the Ion Velocity Meter (IVM) are provided by NASA as the CINDI (Coupled Ion-Neutral Dynamics Investigation) payload, which was selected as an Explorer Mission of Opportunity. The goal of C/NOFS is to forecast scintillation three to six hours before its onset such that system operators will be able to plan in ways that will optimize mission command and control. The spacecraft will be launched into an orbit with perigee/apogee of 400/700 km, and an inclination of 13 degrees. Launch is currently planned for early 2006. Information about C/NOFS can be found at Air Force Research Laboratory page: http://www.kirtland.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD-070404-094.pdf. The Coupled Ion-Neutral Dynamics Investigation (CINDI) payload is funded by NASA as an Explorer Mission of Opportunity. CINDI consists of two instruments: the Ion Velocity Meter (IVM) and the Neutral Wind Meter (NWM). The IVM instrument includes a ion drift meter and a retarding potential analyzer. IVM measure the ion drift vector, the ion temperature, and the major ion composition with a spatial resolution of about 4 km along the satellite track; the ion drift meter also provides vertical and horizontal ion drift components at 500 m resolution. The NWM consists of a cross track wind sensor and a ram wind sensor providing a direct measure of the neutral wind vector with a spatial resolution of about 8 km along the satellite track.

- Description
The Planar Langmuir Probe on C/NOFS is a suite of 2 current measuring sensors mounted on the ram facing surface of the spacecraft. The primary sensor is an Ion Trap (conceptually similar to RPAs flown on many other spacecraft) capable of measuring ion densities as low as 1 cm-3 with a 12 bit log electrometer. The secondary senor is a swept bias planar Langmuir probe (Surface Probe) capable of measuring Ne, Te, and spacecraft potential. The ion number density is the one second average of the ion density sampled at either 32, 256, 512, or 1024 Hz (depending on the mode). The ion density standard deviation is the standard deviation of the samples used to produce the one second average number density. DeltaN/N is the detrened ion number density 1 second standard deviation divided by the mean 1 sec density. The electron density, electron temperature, and spacecraft potential are all derived from a least squares fit to the current-bias curve from the Surface Probe. The data are PRELIMINARY, and as such, are intended for BROWSE PURPOSES ONLY. Regestering your email will allow notification of updates.

- CNOFS_VEFI_BFIELD_1SEC doi:10.48322/vbt7-gj03
- Description
The DC vector magnetometer on the CNOFS spacecraft is a three axis, fluxgate sensor with active thermal control situated on a 0.6m boom. This magnetometer measures the Earth's magnetic field, B, using 16 bit A/D converters at 1 sample per sec with a range of +/- 45,000 nT per sensor axis. Its primary objective on the CNOFS spacecraft is to enable the most accurate V x B and E x B measurements along the spacecraft trajectory, where V is the spacecraft velocity in the fixed frame of the earth and E is the ambient, measured electric field. The magnetic field data also provide indications of ionospheric currents as well as other geophysical phenomena. In-flight calibration of the raw magnetic field data is carried out to determine gains, offsets, and the non-orthogonality matrix in the sensor axes frame. The IGRF-11 model is used as a reference to help determine the calibration. The calibrated magnetic field measurements are provided in the data file. A full description of the instrument can be found in the published paper: The Vector Electric Field Instrument (VEFI) on the C/NOFS Satellite, Pfaff et al., 2021, doi.org/10.1007/s11214-021-00859-y.

- CSSWE_REPTILE_6SEC-COUNTS-L1 doi:10.48322/dy3g-xz52
- Description
CSSWE is a 3U-CubeSat designed and developed by students at the University of Colorado at Boulder (CU-Boulder). The objective of the science mission is to address fundamental questions pertaining to the relationship between solar flares and energetic particles. These questions include the acceleration and loss mechanisms of outer radiation belt electrons. The goal is to measure differential fluxes of relativistic electrons in the energy range of 0.58-3.8 MeV and protons in 9-40 MeV. This project is a collaborative effort between the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) and the Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences (AES) at the University of Colorado, which includes the participation of students, faculty, and professional engineers. The science goals of the CSSWE mission are to study: How flare location, magnitude, and frequency relate to the timing, duration, and energy spectrum of SEPs reaching Earth. How the energy spectrum of radiation belt electrons evolve and how this evolution relates to the acceleration mechanism. To accomplish these goals CSSWE has a requirement for a minimum of 3 months of science operations based on expected flare and geomagnetic storm frequency. The first month of operations will be utilized for systems stabilization and check out.

- DE1_1MIN_RIMS doi:10.48322/4e3s-bm07
- Description
The data were provided by Dennis Gallagher (MSFC). The Retarding Ion Mass Spectrometer (RIMS) consisted of a retarding potential analyzer for energy analysis in series with a magnetic ion-mass spectrometer for mass analysis. Multiple sensor heads permitted the determination of the thermal plasma flow characteristics. This instrument was designed to operate in two basic commandable modes: a high-altitude mode in which the density, temperature, and bulk-flow characteristics of principally H+, He+, and O+ ions were measured; and a low-altitude mode that concentrated on the composition in the 1- to 32-u range. This investigation provided information on (1) the densities of H+, He+, and O+ ions in the ionosphere, plasmasphere, plasma trough, and polar cap (including the density distribution along the magnetic vector in the vicinity of the satellite apogee); (2) the temperature of H+, He+, and O+ ions in the ionosphere, plasmasphere, plasma trough, and polar cap (energy range 0-45 eV); (3) the bulk flow velocities of H+, He+, and O+ in the plasmapause, plasma trough and polar cap; (4) the changing character of the cold plasma density, temperature, and bulk flow in regions of interaction with hot plasma such as at the boundary between the plasmasphere and the ring current; and (5) the detailed composition of ionospheric plasma in the 1-to 32-u range. He++ and O++ were also measured. The instrument consisted of three detector heads. One looked out in the radial direction, and the other two were along the plus and minus spin-axis directions. Each detector had a 55-deg half-cone acceptance angle. The detector heads had a gridded, weakly collimating aperture where the retarding analysis was performed, followed by a parallel plate ceramic magnetic mass analyzer with two separate exit slits corresponding to ion masses in the ratio 1:4. Ions exiting from these slits were detected with electron multipliers. In the apogee mode, the thermal particle fluxes were measured while the potential on a set of retarding grids was stepped through a sequence of settings. In the perigee mode, the retarding grids were grounded and the detector utilized a continuous acceleration potential sweep that focused the mass ranges from 1 to 8, and 4 to 32 u. Time resolution was 16 msec. Additional details can be found in C. R. Chappell et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 477, 1981. Criterian for selecting data points to be fitted aperature bias = 0 must have at least 10 or more non-zero points in rpa curve. if less that 1.3 Re high voltage monitor must be turned on maximum countr rate value must at least 5.0 must have at least 4 points starting from end of rpa curve find 3 consecutive point of increasing value, reset end of rpa curve to here make certain last point is 1 sigma above noise level (the points excluded in previous step), if not drop point and check new last point, continue until criteria is met, must have at least 3 points left starting at new end of selected rpa curve stop first point greater that 80% of maximum of spin curve, if non found stop at last point less that maximum, must have at least 3 points left change curve from count rate curve to l**2 curve if number of points are 5 or less: do a linear least squares fit (linfit) to the data, if the linear correlation coefficient (lcc) greater than 0.800 then points will be used, if not, data set is discarded if number of points are greater then 5: do a linfit to the bottom 5 and a linfit to the top 5 points, in 6 or more points do linfit to the middle 5, saving the lcc and slope for each case. if all three lccs are less than 0.800 discard data set through a series of tests find the set of 5 with the best lcc slope combination once set of 5 has been selected add rest of points one at a time and redo linfit, if lcc gets worse discard point otherwise keep it, do this until all points are checked we now have the points to be used Two Dynamics Explorer (DE) spacecraft were launched August 3, 1981, and placed into coplanar polar orbits with DE-1 in a highly elliptical orbit and DE-2 in a lower more circular orbit. The primary objective of the DE program was to investigate magnetosphere-ionosphere-atmosphere coupling processes. The DE mission provided a wealth of new information on a wide variety of magnetospheric plasma wave phenomena including auroral kilometric radiation, auroral hiss, Z mode radiation, narrow-band electromagnetic emissions associated with equatorial upper hybrid waves, whistler mode emissions, wave-particle interactions stimulated by ground VLF transmitters, equatorial ion cyclotron.emissions, ion Bernstein mode emissions, and electric field turbulence along the auroral field lines.

- Description
Dynamics Explorer 1 spacecraft was one of two satellites in the Dynamics Explorer program. The DE-1 and DE-2 satellites were launched by the same vehicle so that their orbits would be coplanar, allowing two-point measurements along magnetic field lines, for the purpose of studying coupling between the magnetosphere, ionosphere, and upper atmosphere. The DE-1 orbit was highly elliptical with an apogee of 4.35 Re and a perigee of 500 km whereas the DE-2 spacecraft was placed in a much lower 300 x 1000 km altitude orbit. DE-1 was spin stabilized with its spin axis normal to the plane of the orbit. DE-2 was three axis stabilized with one face being nadir oriented. The study of field-aligned currents and MHD waves were the primary objectives of the DE-1/2 magnetometer investigation. Comparison of the magnetometer data with measurements of precipitating charged particles yielded new information on the field-aligned current carriers. In combination with the electric field measurements, it was possible to determine the vertical Poynting Flux of electromagnetic energy flowing between the magnetosphere and ionosphere and to separate small-scale field-aligned currents from MHD waves through the evaluation of the local ratio of the electric to magnetic field amplitudes in these perturbations. The field-aligned current measurements and neutral atmosphere observations also provided an opportunity for investigating atmosphere-magnetosphere coupling and assessing the total rate of energy transfer into the upper atmosphere. Finally, the DE-1/2 magnetometer investigation provided a vital service in so far as a knowledge of magnetic field direction and intensity is essential to any number of space plasma science investigations utilizing the various DE-1/2 particles and fields data sets. The DE-1 magnetic field (MAG-A) 6-second average resolution data set consists of averages of the high resolution triaxial fluxgate measurements taken every 62.5 msec (i.e., 16 vectors/second). The MAG-A data set consists of the three components of the model magnetic field and difference field, B-Radial (Br), B-Theta (Bth), and B-Phi (Bph), in *old* Geomagnetic Spherical (GMS) Coordinates, and the difference field in local *new* Geographic Spherical (GGS) and Geomagnetic Spherical (GMS) Coordinates, respectively, and the difference field in local magnetic coordinates (b-para, b-parp1, b-parp2). The R, Theta and Phi axes are positive in the directions of increasing radial distance from the center of the Earth (i.e., outward), increasing magnetic colatitude (i.e., southward) and increasing azimuth angle (i.e., magnetic east). The reference for the MAGSAT magnetic field model is Langel et al., Geophys. Res. Lett., 7, 793, 1980. The following Orbit Attitude (OA) parameters are also included in the data set: altitude, geographic latitude and longitude, magnetic local time, and invariant latitude. The data are provided in daily files in ASCII format. [updated by Robert.M.Candey@nasa.gov, 2006 Jan 17, per email dated Date: Thu, 18 Feb 99 17:08:59 JST From: iyemori@swdcgw.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp (Toshihiko_Iyemori)] As described in Farthing et al. (1981), the DE-1 magnetometer had a digital resolution of +1.5 nT in its low altitude, least sensitive mode. Two higher sensitivity modes were used at higher altitudes with digital resolutions of +0.25 nT and +0.02 nT, respectively. The data set consists of daily files from 81258 to 91049 in ASCII format. Each file contains all of the data available for a given day. The dominant source of error in the DE-1 magnetic field measurements is the uncertainty in the attitude of the spacecraft. The DE-1 spacecraft was designed to an attitude uncertainty specification of about 0.3 degree which appears to have been met much of the time. As a rule of thumb each 0.1 degree in attitude uncertainty near perigee corresponds to an error of approximately 100 nT in each component of the field when the magnetic field measured at the sensors is transferred to an inertial frame of reference or a model field is transferred into the 0spacecraft frame and subtracted from the measured field. For this reason it is common for the residual, or delta-B field obtained by subtracting the model field at low altitudes (i.e., high fields) to show a gradual shift of several 100 nT from the start of a passage across the polar cap to the other side. (These slow shifts in the baselines of the vector field components do not affect most scientific analyses, e.g., field-aligned current measurements, but they can be effectively dealt with through modeling if need be. At higher altitudes the ambient field intensity is less and the uncertainty due to attitude errors is correspondingly smaller. The absolute accuracy of the DE-1 total magnetic field measurement has also been evaluated through comparison with the precision vector/scalar magnetic field observatories located on the ground which are used to monitor the geomagnetic field. On the basis of such cross-comparisons utilizing DE-1 perigee data over the life of the mission, R. Langel (private communication, 1994) found excellent agreement between the MAG-A and ground-based observatory scalar data sets at the 20 to 40 nT level. In using any unfamiliar data set, caution is advised and tests to screen out instrumental artifacts should be devised before reaching important conclusions. De-spinning high sensitivity, boom mounted vector magnetometer data in high fields (i.e., >1000 nT) frequently results in a readily observable residual signal at the spin period and its harmonics. In the case of the DE-1 magnetometer measurements, the dominant causes of residual spin tone were found to be small (0.1 to 0.01%) changes in the instrument scale factors and boom bending of up to several tenths of a degree in response to varying thermal inputs due to orbit/attitude driven changes in solar illumination (e.g., seasonal variations, eclipses, etc.). These effects were minimized through an orbit by orbit calibration procedure which analyzed the residual spin tone around apogee and perigee and adjusted the scale factors and sensor attitude accordingly. Even after these in-flight calibration activities, residual spin tone signals in the MAG-A data with amplitudes of tens of nanotesla are common in high fields around perigee. The most probable cause of these residuals is the transverse field dependence of fluxgate magnetometers in high fields which was not well-appreciated at the time that DE-1/2 magnetometers were designed and calibrated in the late 1970's. As discussed by Luhr et al. (1995) in regards to the magnetometer on the low altitude, spin stabilized Freja spacecraft, this non-linear effect can easily produce the residual spin frequency signals present in the MAG-A data set. The MLT and ILAT algorithms were supplied by M. Sugiura (PI for the Magnetometer Investigation) prior to launch and used in the generation of the Orbit-Attitude database. References: 1.

- Description
Dynamics Explorer 1 spacecraft was one of two satellites in the Dynamics Explorer program. The DE-1 and DE-2 satellites were launched by the same vehicle so that their orbits would be coplanar, allowing two-point measurements along magnetic field lines, for the purpose of studying coupling between the magnetosphere, ionosphere, and upper atmosphere. The DE-1 orbit was highly elliptical with an apogee of 4.35 Re and a perigee of 500 km whereas the DE-2 spacecraft was placed in a much lower 300 x 1000 km altitude orbit. DE-1 was spin stabilized with its spin axis normal to the plane of the orbit. DE-2 was three axis stabilized with one face being nadir oriented. The study of field-aligned currents and MHD waves were the primary objectives of the DE-1/2 magnetometer investigation. Comparison of the magnetometer data with measurements of precipitating charged particles yielded new information on the field-aligned current carriers. In combination with the electric field measurements, it was possible to determine the vertical Poynting Flux of electromagnetic energy flowing between the magnetosphere and ionosphere and to separate small-scale field-aligned currents from MHD waves through the evaluation of the local ratio of the electric to magnetic field amplitudes in these perturbations. The field-aligned current measurements and neutral atmosphere observations also provided an opportunity for investigating atmosphere-magnetosphere coupling and assessing the total rate of energy transfer into the upper atmosphere. Finally, the DE-1/2 magnetometer investigation provided a vital service in so far as a knowledge of magnetic field direction and intensity is essential to any number of space plasma science investigations utilizing the various DE-1/2 particles and fields data sets. The DE-1 magnetic field (MAG-A) high time resolution data set consists of triaxial fluxgate measurements taken every 62.5 msec (i.e., 16 vectors/second). As described in Farthing et al. (1981), the DE-1 magnetometer had a digital resolution of +1.5 nT in its low altitude, least sensitive mode. Two higher sensitivity modes were used at higher altitudes with digital resolutions of +0.25 nT and +0.02 nT, respectively. The MAG-A data set consists of the three components of the magnetic field, B-Radial (Br), B-Theta (Bth), and B-Phi (Bph), in Geomagnetic Spherical (GMS) Coordinates. This is a local Cartesian coordinate system. The R, Theta and Phi axes are oriented relative to a MAGSAT magnetic field model (Langel et al., 1980) positive in the directions of increasing radial distance from the center of the Earth (i.e., outward), increasing magnetic colatitude (i.e., southward) and increasing azimuth angle (i.e., magnetic east). The following Orbit Attitude (OA) parameters are also included in the archive data set: model magnetic field in GMS coordinates; altitude of the satellite; magnetic latitude and longitude; magnetic local time, and invariant latitude. The data set consists of daily files from 81258 to 91049. Each file contains all of the data available for a given day. If there were no magnetometer data for a given time, the time record was left out. If there were magnetometer data, but no orbit or model field data, a fill value of 9999999.0 was used for the missing values. The dominant source of error in the DE-1 magnetic field measurements is the uncertainty in the attitude of the spacecraft. The DE-1 spacecraft was designed to an attitude uncertainty specification of about 0.3 degree which appears to have been met much of the time. As a rule of thumb each 0.1 degree in attitude uncertainty near perigee corresponds to an error of approximately 100 nT in each component of the field when the magnetic field measured at the sensors is transferred to an inertial frame of reference or a model field is transferred into the 0spacecraft frame and subtracted from the measured field. For this reason it is common for the residual, or delta-B field obtained by subtracting the model field at low altitudes (i.e., high fields) to show a gradual shift of several 100 nT from the start of a passage across the polar cap to the other side. (These slow shifts in the baselines of the vector field components do not affect most scientific analyses, e.g., field-aligned current measurements, but they can be effectively dealt with through modeling if need be. At higher altitudes the ambient field intensity is less and the uncertainty due to attitude errors is correspondingly smaller. The absolute accuracy of the DE-1 total magnetic field measurement has also been evaluated through comparison with the precision vector/scalar magnetic field observatories located on the ground which are used to monitor the geomagnetic field. On the basis of such cross-comparisons utilizing DE-1 perigee data over the life of the mission, R. Langel (private communication, 1994) found excellent agreement between the MAG-A and ground-based observatory scalar data sets at the 20 to 40 nT level. On time scales comparable to or less than the DE-1 spin period, 6 sec, other artifacts are present in the data set which must be considered for somescientific investigations. Like most telemetered geophysical data, the vector.components archived here suffer from occasional bad data points. These spurious data entries were caused, for the most part, by noise introduced in the satellite-receiving station telemetry link. Such bad data can usually be recognized by workers familiar with such data sets. These are for the most part single point data excursions which show no geophysical correlation between the magnetic field components and the observations of plasma phenomena by the other DE instruments. Similarly, there sometimes exist spurious data points in the ancillary orbit/attitude database. Some are obvious such as model magnetic field values for which the sign values have been corrupted. Others, such as occasional millisecond jumps in the time, produce small, unphysical discontinuities in the processed field components. Small discontinuities are also sometimes present at the point where the magnetometer changes mode due to slight imperfections in calibration parameters which are independently determined for each mode. (N.B., mode changes can be readily detected by the change in the digital resolution of the data in an expanded vertical scale plot of B versus time.) In using any unfamiliar data set, caution is advised and tests to screen out instrumental artifacts should be devised before reaching important conclusions. De-spinning high sensitivity, boom mounted vector magnetometer data in high fields (i.e., >1000 nT) frequently results in a readily observable residual signal at the spin period and its harmonics. In the case of the DE-1 magnetometer measurements, the dominant causes of residual spin tone were found to be small (0.1 to 0.01%) changes in the instrument scale factors and boom bending of up to several tenths of a degree in response to varying thermal inputs due to orbit/attitude driven changes in solar illumination (e.g., seasonal variations, eclipses, etc.). These effects were minimized through an orbit by orbit calibration procedure which analyzed the residual spin tone around apogee and perigee and adjusted the scale factors and sensor attitude accordingly. Even after these in-flight calibration activities, residual spin tone signals in the MAG-A data with amplitudes of tens of nanotesla are common in high fields around perigee. The most probable cause of these residuals is the transverse field dependence of fluxgate magnetometers in high fields which was not well-appreciated at the time that DE-1/2 magnetometers were designed.and calibrated in the late 1970's. As discussed by Luhr et al. (1995) in regards to the magnetometer on the low altitude, spin stabilized Freja spacecraft, this non-linear effect can easily produce the residual spin frequency signals present in the MAG-A data set.

- Description
Dynamics Explorer 1 spacecraft was one of two satellites in the Dynamics Explorer program. The DE-1 and DE-2 satellites were launched by the same vehicle so that their orbits would be coplanar, allowing two-point measurements along magnetic field lines, for the purpose of studying coupling between the magnetosphere, ionosphere, and upper atmosphere. The DE-1 orbit was highly elliptical with an apogee of 4.35 Re and a perigee of 500 km whereas the DE-2 spacecraft was placed in a much lower 300 x 1000 km altitude orbit. DE-1 was spin stabilized with its spin axis normal to the plane of the orbit. DE-2 was three axis stabilized with one face being nadir oriented. The study of field-aligned currents and MHD waves were the primary objectives of the DE-1/2 magnetometer investigation. Comparison of the magnetometer data with measurements of precipitating charged particles yielded new information on the field-aligned current carriers. In combination with the electric field measurements, it was possible to determine the vertical Poynting Flux of electromagnetic energy flowing between the magnetosphere and ionosphere and to separate small-scale field-aligned currents from MHD waves through the evaluation of the local ratio of the electric to magnetic field amplitudes in these perturbations. The field-aligned current measurements and neutral atmosphere observations also provided an opportunity for investigating atmosphere-magnetosphere coupling and assessing the total rate of energy transfer into the upper atmosphere. Finally, the DE-1/2 magnetometer investigation provided a vital service in so far as a knowledge of magnetic field direction and intensity is essential to any number of space plasma science investigations utilizing the various DE-1/2 particles and fields data sets. The DE-1 magnetic field (MAG-A) 6-second average resolution data set consists of averages of the high resolution triaxial fluxgate measurements taken every 62.5 msec (i.e., 16 vectors/second). The MAG-A data set consists of the three components of the model magnetic field and difference field, B-Radial (Br), B-Theta (Bth), and B-Phi (Bph), in *old* Geomagnetic Spherical (GMS) Coordinates, and the difference field in local *new* Geographic Spherical (GGS) and Geomagnetic Spherical (GMS) Coordinates, respectively, and the difference field in local magnetic coordinates (b-para, b-parp1, b-parp2). The R, Theta and Phi axes are positive in the directions of increasing radial distance from the center of the Earth (i.e., outward), increasing magnetic colatitude (i.e., southward) and increasing azimuth angle (i.e., magnetic east). The reference for the MAGSAT magnetic field model is Langel et al., Geophys. Res. Lett., 7, 793, 1980. The following Orbit Attitude (OA) parameters are also included in the data set: altitude, geographic latitude and longitude, magnetic local time, and invariant latitude. The data are provided in daily files in ASCII format. [updated by Robert.M.Candey@nasa.gov, 2006 Jan 17, per email dated Date: Thu, 18 Feb 99 17:08:59 JST From: iyemori@swdcgw.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp (Toshihiko_Iyemori)] As described in Farthing et al. (1981), the DE-1 magnetometer had a digital resolution of +1.5 nT in its low altitude, least sensitive mode. Two higher sensitivity modes were used at higher altitudes with digital resolutions of +0.25 nT and +0.02 nT, respectively. The data set consists of daily files from 81258 to 91049 in ASCII format. Each file contains all of the data available for a given day. The dominant source of error in the DE-1 magnetic field measurements is the uncertainty in the attitude of the spacecraft. The DE-1 spacecraft was designed to an attitude uncertainty specification of about 0.3 degree which appears to have been met much of the time. As a rule of thumb each 0.1 degree in attitude uncertainty near perigee corresponds to an error of approximately 100 nT in each component of the field when the magnetic field measured at the sensors is transferred to an inertial frame of reference or a model field is transferred into the 0spacecraft frame and subtracted from the measured field. For this reason it is common for the residual, or delta-B field obtained by subtracting the model field at low altitudes (i.e., high fields) to show a gradual shift of several 100 nT from the start of a passage across the polar cap to the other side. (These slow shifts in the baselines of the vector field components do not affect most scientific analyses, e.g., field-aligned current measurements, but they can be effectively dealt with through modeling if need be. At higher altitudes the ambient field intensity is less and the uncertainty due to attitude errors is correspondingly smaller. The absolute accuracy of the DE-1 total magnetic field measurement has also been evaluated through comparison with the precision vector/scalar magnetic field observatories located on the ground which are used to monitor the geomagnetic field. On the basis of such cross-comparisons utilizing DE-1 perigee data over the life of the mission, R. Langel (private communication, 1994) found excellent agreement between the MAG-A and ground-based observatory scalar data sets at the 20 to 40 nT level. In using any unfamiliar data set, caution is advised and tests to screen out instrumental artifacts should be devised before reaching important conclusions. De-spinning high sensitivity, boom mounted vector magnetometer data in high fields (i.e., >1000 nT) frequently results in a readily observable residual signal at the spin period and its harmonics. In the case of the DE-1 magnetometer measurements, the dominant causes of residual spin tone were found to be small (0.1 to 0.01%) changes in the instrument scale factors and boom bending of up to several tenths of a degree in response to varying thermal inputs due to orbit/attitude driven changes in solar illumination (e.g., seasonal variations, eclipses, etc.). These effects were minimized through an orbit by orbit calibration procedure which analyzed the residual spin tone around apogee and perigee and adjusted the scale factors and sensor attitude accordingly. Even after these in-flight calibration activities, residual spin tone signals in the MAG-A data with amplitudes of tens of nanotesla are common in high fields around perigee. The most probable cause of these residuals is the transverse field dependence of fluxgate magnetometers in high fields which was not well-appreciated at the time that DE-1/2 magnetometers were designed and calibrated in the late 1970's. As discussed by Luhr et al. (1995) in regards to the magnetometer on the low altitude, spin stabilized Freja spacecraft, this non-linear effect can easily produce the residual spin frequency signals present in the MAG-A data set. The MLT and ILAT algorithms were supplied by M. Sugiura (PI for the Magnetometer Investigation) prior to launch and used in the generation of the Orbit-Attitude database.

Instrumen., 5, 535, 1981. Two Dynamics Explorer (DE) spacecraft were launched August 3, 1981, and placed into coplanar polar orbits with DE-1 in a highly elliptical orbit and DE-2 in a lower more circular orbit. The primary objective of the DE program was to investigate magnetosphere-ionosphere-atmosphere coupling processes. The DE mission provided a wealth of new information on a wide variety of magnetospheric plasma wave phenomena including auroral kilometric radiation, auroral hiss, Z mode radiation, narrow-band electromagnetic emissions associated with equatorial upper hybrid waves, whistler mode emissions, wave-particle interactions stimulated by ground VLF transmitters, equatorial ion cyclotron emissions, ion Bernstein mode emissions, and electric field turbulence along the auroral field lines. This file contains calibrated, full resolution, data from the DE-1 Plasma Wave Instrument (PWI). This instrument was designed and built by the plasma wave group at The University of Iowa, Department of Physics and Astronomy, in collaboration with investigators at Stanford University's STAR Laboratory. It measured plasma wave phenomena and quasi-static electric fields using paired combinations of five PWI sensors: a 200m tip-to-tip long wire electric antenna deployed in the spacecraft spin plane, a 9m tip-to-tip tubular electric antenna deployed along the spacecraft spin axis, a short 0.6m electric antenna, mounted on the boom and oriented parallel to the long wire antenna, a magnetic loop antenna mounted on the boom and oriented to measure the component of the magnetic field parallel to the long wire antenna, and a magnetic search coil antenna, also mounted on a boom and oriented to measure the magnetic field parallel to the spacecraft spin axis. The PWI main electronics unit consisted of a Step Frequency Correlator (SFC), a Low Frequency Correlator (LFC), a Wideband Analog Receiver (WBR) and a Linear Wave Receiver (LWR). Only the LFC data are included in these files. The SFC data were provided in a companion fileset. A dataset containing available high rate WBR LWR data may be provided in future archive products. The LFC consisted of two receivers (LFR-A and LFR-B) with 8 analog channels each. The analog channels were centered at 1.78, 3.12, 5.62, 10.0, 17.8, 31.2, 56.2 and 100 Hz. Each channel's band-edge was at +/-15% of the center value. Each LFR in the LFC could be connected to either the Ex, Es, Ez, or H antenna during an 8 second major frame. In addition, the Low Frequency Correlator provided in-phase and quadrature-phase correlations of signals from any selected antenna pair. Phase data are not provided in this file set. For a detailed description of the Plasma Wave Instrument, the reader is referred to the Space Science Instrumentation referenece above.

Step Frequency Correlator has two independent Step Frequency Receivers, labeled 'A' and 'B'. This variable records which of the SFR receivers were connected to the B antenna during the collection of each record. This field will read: Ƈ' if SFR-A was connected to B, ƈ' if SFR-B was connected to B, and Ɖ' if both were used at different times during the 32 second sweep period.
- ---> Wideband (waveform) data availability status [WBR_xmit]
PWI Waveform data were transmitted directly from DE-1 without going through the standard telemetry stream. This status field will read 0 if the wideband transmitter was off during this time period and thus waveform data were not transmitted. A 1 in this field indicates the transmitter was on and that waveform data may be available.
- Integer combining all data quality flags (0 = no issues detected) [Quality_Flag]
A bitwise OR'ing of all known issue values for this record. The following issue values are defined. (0x2: Attenuation Mode) If this value is present the measurements are less sensetive than normal due to the input being attenuated by 30 dB. Though the data are still calibrated they do not have the same contrast as data collected in the un-attenuated state. (0x1: Gain Toggle Mode) If this value is present it means that the SFC was toggling attenuation states every 1/2 second. Measurements collected in the first half of the second are not attenuated. Measurements collected in the last half were attenuated by 30 dB. To achieve a single calibrated state for a single SFR band in a record the attenuated measurements have been dropped. The final quality flag is a bitwise OR'ing of all issue values.

- Description
This data set is a combination of the VEFI and MAGB high resolution data sets in SPC coordinates submitted to NSSDC. The following OA parameters have been added to the data set: Model magnetic field in SPC coordinates, altitude of the satellite, geographic latitude and longitude, magnetic local time, and invariant latitude. The VEFI data set is described in the file VEFIVOLDESC.SFD and the MAGB data set is described in the file MAGBVOLDESC.SFD, these files are portions of the SFDU metadata files submitted with the VEFI and MAGB data to NSSDC and are included in each volume of this data set. This data set consists of daily files from day 81227 to day 83047. Each file contains all the data available for a given day. During the merging of the data sets it was found that although VEFI and MAGB should cover the same time spans, they do not, due perhaps to the fact that the original MAGB high resolution data set was created on the DE Sigma-9 using the DE telemetry tapes, while the VEFI high resolution data set was created on the DE MicroVAX system using the DE telemetry data base on optical disk. In order to keep the largest amount of data possible, the merged data set includes all the available VEFI and MAGB data, for those times when VEFI data was available but MAGB was not (6.54%), a fill data value of 9999999. was given to the MAGB data and for those times when MAGB data was available but VEFI was not (6.87%), the fill data value was assigned to the VEFI data. Times for which both VEFI and MAGB data were fill values in the original data sets were not included in the merged data set. There were also times when certain OA parameters were fill values in the OA data base and they are therefore also fill values in this merged data set. The model magnetic field had fill values for 8.55% of the data. Statistics were not kept for the other OA parameters. Each daily file contains a record per measurement. The total number of records in each file varies depending on the amount of data available for a given day. Each record of each daily file contains the following information:

The Vector Electric Field Instrument (VEFI) used flight-proven double-probe techniques with 20-m baselines to obtain measurements of dc electric fields. This electric field investigation had the following objectives: (1) to obtain accurate and comprehensive triaxial dc electric field measurements at ionospheric altitudes in order to refine the basic spatial patterns, define the large-scale time history of these patterns, and study the small-scale temporal and spatial variations within the overall patterns; (2) to study the degree to which and in what region the electric field projects to the equatorial plane; (3) to obtain measurements of extreme low frequency (ELF) and lower frequency irregularity structures; and (4) to perform numerous correlative studies. The instrument consisted of six cylindrical elements 11 m long and 28 mm in diameter. Each antenna was insulated from the plasma except for the outer 2 m. The baseline, or distance between the midpoints of these 2-m active elements, was 20 m. The antennas were interlocked along the edges to prevent oscillation and to increase their rigidity against drag forces. The basic electronic system was very similar in concept to those used on IMP-J and ISEE 1, but modified for a three-axis measurement on a nonspinning spacecraft. At the core of the system were the high-impedance (1.E12 ohm) preamplifiers, whose outputs were accurately subtracted and digitized (14-bit A/D conversion for sensitivity to about 0.1 microvolt/m) to maintain high resolution, for subsequent removal of the cross-product of the vectors V and B in data processing. This provided the basic dc measurement. Other circuitry was used to aid in interpreting the dc data and to measure rapid variations in the signals detected by the antennas. The planned dc electric field range was plus or minus 1 V/m, the planned resolution was 0.1 mV/m, and the variational electric field was measured from 4 Hz to 1024 Hz. The dc electric field was measured at 16 samples/s. The variational electric field was measured from 1 microvolt/m to 10 mV/m rms. Additional details are found in N. C. Maynard et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 523, 1981. The antenna pair perpendicular to the orbit plane did not deploy.

- Description
The Retarding Potential Analyzer (RPA) measured the bulk ion velocity in the direction of the spacecraft motion, the constituent ion concentrations, and the ion temperature along the satellite path. These parameters were derived from a least squares fit to the ion number flux vs energy curve obtained by sweeping or stepping the voltage applied to the internal retarding grids of the RPA. In addition, a separate wide aperture sensor, a duct sensor, was flown to measure the spectral characteristics of iregularities in the total ion concentration. The measured parameters obtained from this investigation were important to the understanding of mechanisms that influence the plasma; i.e., to understand the coupling between the solar wind and the earth's atmosphere. The measurements were made with a multigridded planar retarding potential analyzer very similar in concept and geometry to the instruments carried on the AE satellites. The retarding potential was variable in the range from approximately +32 to 0 volts. The details of this voltage trace, and whether it was continuous or stepped, depended on the operating mode of the instrument. Specific parameters deduced from these measurements were ion temperature; vehicle potential; ram component of the ion drift velocity; the ion and electron concentration irregularity spectrum; and the concentration of H+, He+, O+, and Fe+, and of molecular ions near perigee. Additional details are in W. B. Hanson et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 503, 1981. It includes the DUCT portion of the high resolutiondata from the Dynamics Explorer 2 (DE-2) Retarding Potential Analyzer (RPA) for the whole DE-2 mission time period in ASCII format. This version was generated at NSSDC from the PI-provided binary data (SPIO-00232). The DUCT files include RPA measurements of the total ion concentration every 64 times per second. Due to a failure in the instrument memory system RPA data are not available from 81317 06:26:40 UT to 82057 13:16:00 UT. This data set is based on the revised version of the RPA files that was submitted by the PI team in June of 1995. The revised RPA data include a correction to the spacecraft potential.

It includes the high-resolution data from the Dynamics Explorer 2 (DE-2) Retarding Potential Analyzer (RPA) for the whole DE-2 mission time period in ASCII format. The ASCII version was generated at NSSDC from the PI-provided binary data (SPIO-00232). The RPA data files include orbit parameters and geophysical data at a time resolution of usually 2 seconds and sometimes 4 second. The following geophysical parameters are provided: ion drift vector, ion density, ion temperature, spacecraft potential, ion densities of atomic oxygen, hydrogen, helium, molecular constituents and high mass constituents, data quality flag, and RMS error. The ion drift vector is given by its components in spacecraft coordinates; the y and z components are IDM measurements. Due to a failure in the instrument memory system RPA data are not available from 81317 06:26:40 UT to 82057 13:16:00 UT. This data set is based on the revised version of the RPA files that was submitted by the PI team in June of 1995. The revised RPA data include a correction to the spacecraft potential. The Dynamics Explorer 2 Retarding Potential Analyzer (RPA) files contain the ion temperature, the ion drift velocity along the sensor look direction, and the ion composition and orbit parameters in ASCII format. The time resolution is typically 2 seconds. Data are given as daily files (typically a few 100 Kbytes each). NSSDC-developed software was used to read the RPA binary data and create ASCII files. For more on DE-2, RPA, and the binary data, see RPA_VOLDESC_DE.SFD and RPA_FORMAT_DE.SFD. The RPA files are requested with the DATA_TYPE = RPA_ASCII and the ENTRY_ID = yyddd and are then staged as yydddhhmm_RPA_DE_2S_V01.ASC; yy is the year, ddd is the day of the year, hh is the hour, and mm is the minute of the starting time of the data in the file. The date range for the IDM files is 81218-83049 with most days represented. The data quality field contains a flag that describes the quality of the RPA data. A value greater than or equal to 0 indicates that the data has passed the set of basic quality checks. A negative value indicates that the RPA data fails at least one check and is untrustworthy. Following are the sequence of checks. Tests are sequentially performed until a flag is assigned. Ni<8000 or Ni>6.E6 flag=-70 Psi<-2 or Psi>0.5 flag=-60 for INVARIANT LATITUDE<50 Ti<500 or Ti>10000 flag=-50 |Vx|>700 m/s flag=-20 Mols>O+ flag=-40 H+>O+ flag=-30 Vx=0 flag= 40 Vx non zero Sum of light ions > 25% O+ flag= 50 Sum of light ions < 25% O+ flag= 20 set flag to 0 if one of the needed concentrations is unavailable. increase magnitude of flag by 5 if rms fit error > 10% for INVARIANT LATITUDE>50 Ti<500 or Ti>200000 flag=-50 Ti>7000 |Vx|<1000 and |Vz|<1000 flag=-20 Alt>600 Mols>O+ flag=-40 O+>Mols flag= 30 Alt<=600 Mols>O+ Vx>0 flag=-10 Vx<=0 flag= 0 O+>Mols flag= 30 Ti<=7000 |Vx|>2000 flag=-20 Mols>O+ flag=-40 O+>Mols flag= 60 set flag to 0 if one of the needed concentrations is unavailable. Increase magnitude of flag by 5 if rms fit error > 12% The sweep type field contains a number (1 - 4) that represents the type of RPA sweep used. The sweep types are: 1. Integral RPA curve obtained with voltage sweep from 0 to beyond 10 volts. 2. Electronic derivative of RPA curve obtained with voltage sweep from 0 to beyond 10 volts. 3. Integral RPA curve obtained with voltage sweep from 0 up to 8 volts. 4. Electronic derivative of RPA curve obtained with voltage sweep from 0 to 8 volts.

- Description
The DE-2 spacecraft (low-altitude mission) complemented the high-altitude mission DE-1and was placed into an orbit with a perigee sufficiently low to permit measurements of neutral composition, temperature, and wind. The apogee was high enough to permit measurements above the interaction regions of suprathermal ions, and also plasma flow measurements at the feet of the magnetospheric field lines. The general form of the spacecraft was a short polygon 137 cm in diameter and 115 cm high. The triaxial antennas were 23 m tip-to-tip. One 6-m boom was provided for remote measurements. The spacecraft weight was 403 kg. Power was supplied by a solar cell array, which charged two 6-ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries. The spacecraft was three-axis stabilized with the yaw axis aligned toward the center of the earth to within 1 deg. The spin axis was normal to the orbit plane within 1 deg with a spin rate of one revolution per orbit. A single-axis scan platform was included in order to mount the low-altitude plasma instrument (81-070B-08). The platform rotated about the spin axis. A pulse code modulation telemetry data system was used that operated in real time or in a tape-recorder mode. Data were acquired on a science-problem-oriented basis, with closely coordinated operations of the various instruments, both satellites, and supportive experiments. Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 349, 1981. DE-2 reentered the atmosphere on February 19, 1983. The Low-Altitude Plasma Instrument (LAPI) provided high-resolution velocity space measurements of positive ions and electrons from 5 eV to 32 keV. The two Geiger-Mueller counter tubes (0 and 90 deg) measured trapped electrons and precipitating electrons above 35 keV as integral number flux. Pitch angle measurements covered the full 180 deg range. Data from this investigation and supporting measurements were used to study (1) the identification and intensities of Birkeland currents, (2) auroral particle source regions and acceleration mechanisms, (3) the existence and role of E parallel to B, (4) sources and effects of polar cap particle fluxes, (5) the transport of plasma within and through the magnetospheric cusp, (6) dynamic configurations of high-latitude flux tubes, (7) loss-cone effects of wave-particle interactions, (8) hot-cold plasma interactions, (9) ionospheric effects of particle precipitation, and (10) plasma convection at high altitudes. The instrument contained an array of 15 parabolic electrostatic analyzers of the ISIS 2 type, each with an electron channel and an ion channel, in order to obtain detailed pitch-angle distributions as a function of energy. Two Geiger-Mueller counters were mounted on the scan platform. The basic mode of operation provided a 32-point energy spectrum in the range 5 eV to 32 kev every second. The voltages on the electrostatic analyzers were programmable to allow for greater space/time resolution over limited portions of the energy and angular distributions. The instrument was mounted on a one-axis scan platform controlled by a magnetometer, whose purpose was to maintain the detector array, which spanned 180 deg, at a nearly constant angle to the magnetic field. Additional details are found in J. D. Winningham et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 465, 1981. From March 16, 1982 to April 4, 1982 the instrument was turned off for corrective action.

- Description
The DE-2 spacecraft (low-altitude mission) complemented the high-altitude mission DE-1and was placed into an orbit with a perigee sufficiently low to permit measurements of neutral composition, temperature, and wind. The apogee was high enough to permit measurements above the interaction regions of suprathermal ions, and also plasma flow measurements at the feet of the magnetospheric field lines. The general form of the spacecraft was a short polygon 137 cm in diameter and 115 cm high. The triaxial antennas were 23 m tip-to-tip. One 6-m boom was provided for remote measurements. The spacecraft weight was 403 kg. Power was supplied by a solar cell array, which charged two 6-ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries. The spacecraft was three-axis stabilized with the yaw axis aligned toward the center of the earth to within 1 deg. The spin axis was normal to the orbit plane within 1 deg with a spin rate of one revolution per orbit. A single-axis scan platform was included in order to mount the low-altitude plasma instrument (81-070B-08). The platform rotated about the spin axis. A pulse code modulation telemetry data system was used that operated in real time or in a tape-recorder mode. Data were acquired on a science-problem-oriented basis, with closely coordinated operations of the various instruments, both satellites, and supportive experiments. Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 349, 1981. DE-2 reentered the atmosphere on February 19, 1983. The Low-Altitude Plasma Instrument (LAPI) provided high-resolution velocity space measurements of positive ions and electrons from 5 eV to 32 keV. The two Geiger-Mueller counter tubes (0 and 90 deg) measured trapped electrons and precipitating electrons above 35 keV as integral number flux. Pitch angle measurements covered the full 180 deg range. Data from this investigation and supporting measurements were used to study (1) the identification and intensities of Birkeland currents, (2) auroral particle source regions and acceleration mechanisms, (3) the existence and role of E parallel to B, (4) sources and effects of polar cap particle fluxes, (5) the transport of plasma within and through the magnetospheric cusp, (6) dynamic configurations of high-latitude flux tubes, (7) loss-cone effects of wave-particle interactions, (8) hot-cold plasma interactions, (9) ionospheric effects of particle precipitation, and (10) plasma convection at high altitudes. The instrument contained an array of 15 parabolic electrostatic analyzers of the ISIS 2 type, each with an electron channel and an ion channel, in order to obtain detailed pitch-angle distributions as a function of energy. Two Geiger-Mueller counters were mounted on the scan platform. The basic mode of operation provided a 32-point energy spectrum in the range 5 eV to 32 kev every second. The voltages on the electrostatic analyzers were programmable to allow for greater space/time resolution over limited portions of the energy and angular distributions. The instrument was mounted on a one-axis scan platform controlled by a magnetometer, whose purpose was to maintain the detector array, which spanned 180 deg, at a nearly constant angle to the magnetic field. Additional details are found in J. D. Winningham et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 465, 1981. From March 16, 1982 to April 4, 1982 the instrument was turned off for corrective action.

Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 349, 1981. DE-2 reentered the atmosphere on February 19, 1983. The Low-Altitude Plasma Instrument (LAPI) provided high-resolution velocity space measurements of positive ions and electrons from 5 eV to 32 keV. The two Geiger-Mueller counter tubes (0 and 90 deg) measured trapped electrons and precipitating electrons above 35 keV as integral number flux. Pitch angle measurements covered the full 180 deg range. Data from this investigation and supporting measurements were used to study (1) the identification and intensities of Birkeland currents, (2) auroral particle source regions and acceleration mechanisms, (3) the existence and role of E parallel to B, (4) sources and effects of polar cap particle fluxes, (5) the transport of plasma within and through the magnetospheric cusp, (6) dynamic configurations of high-latitude flux tubes, (7) loss-cone effects of wave-particle interactions, (8) hot-cold plasma interactions, (9) ionospheric effects of particle precipitation, and (10) plasma convection at high altitudes. The instrument contained an array of 15 parabolic electrostatic analyzers of the ISIS 2 type, each with an electron channel and an ion channel, in order to obtain detailed pitch-angle distributions as a function of energy. Two Geiger-Mueller counters were mounted on the scan platform. The basic mode of operation provided a 32-point energy spectrum in the range 5 eV to 32 kev every second. The voltages on the electrostatic analyzers were programmable to allow for greater space/time resolution over limited portions of the energy and angular distributions. The instrument was mounted on a one-axis scan platform controlled by a magnetometer, whose purpose was to maintain the detector array, which spanned 180 deg, at a nearly constant angle to the magnetic field. Additional details are found in J. D. Winningham et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 465, 1981. From March 16, 1982 to April 4, 1982 the instrument was turned off for corrective action.

- Description
The DE-2 spacecraft (low-altitude mission) complemented the high-altitude mission DE-1and was placed into an orbit with a perigee sufficiently low to permit measurements of neutral composition, temperature, and wind. The apogee was high enough to permit measurements above the interaction regions of suprathermal ions, and also plasma flow measurements at the feet of the magnetospheric field lines. The general form of the spacecraft was a short polygon 137 cm in diameter and 115 cm high. The triaxial antennas were 23 m tip-to-tip. One 6-m boom was provided for remote measurements. The spacecraft weight was 403 kg. Power was supplied by a solar cell array, which charged two 6-ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries. The spacecraft was three-axis stabilized with the yaw axis aligned toward the center of the earth to within 1 deg. The spin axis was normal to the orbit plane within 1 deg with a spin rate of one revolution per orbit. A single-axis scan platform was included in order to mount the low-altitude plasma instrument (81-070B-08). The platform rotated about the spin axis. A pulse code modulation telemetry data system was used that operated in real time or in a tape-recorder mode. Data were acquired on a science-problem-oriented basis, with closely coordinated operations of the various instruments, both satellites, and supportive experiments. Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci.

- DE2_LAPI_LAPI-MAG
- Description
The DE-2 spacecraft (low-altitude mission) complemented the high-altitude mission DE-1and was placed into an orbit with a perigee sufficiently low to permit measurements of neutral composition, temperature, and wind. The apogee was high enough to permit measurements above the interaction regions of suprathermal ions, and also plasma flow measurements at the feet of the magnetospheric field lines. The general form of the spacecraft was a short polygon 137 cm in diameter and 115 cm high. The triaxial antennas were 23 m tip-to-tip. One 6-m boom was provided for remote measurements. The spacecraft weight was 403 kg. Power was supplied by a solar cell array, which charged two 6-ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries. The spacecraft was three-axis stabilized with the yaw axis aligned toward the center of the earth to within 1 deg. The spin axis was normal to the orbit plane within 1 deg with a spin rate of one revolution per orbit. A single-axis scan platform was included in order to mount the low-altitude plasma instrument (81-070B-08). The platform rotated about the spin axis. A pulse code modulation telemetry data system was used that operated in real time or in a tape-recorder mode. Data were acquired on a science-problem-oriented basis, with closely coordinated operations of the various instruments, both satellites, and supportive experiments. Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 349, 1981. DE-2 reentered the atmosphere on February 19, 1983. The Low-Altitude Plasma Instrument (LAPI) provided high-resolution velocity space measurements of positive ions and electrons from 5 eV to 32 keV. The two Geiger-Mueller counter tubes (0 and 90 deg) measured trapped electrons and precipitating electrons above 35 keV as integral number flux. Pitch angle measurements covered the full 180 deg range. Data from this investigation and supporting measurements were used to study (1) the identification and intensities of Birkeland currents, (2) auroral particle source regions and acceleration mechanisms, (3) the existence and role of E parallel to B, (4) sources and effects of polar cap particle fluxes, (5) the transport of plasma within and through the magnetospheric cusp, (6) dynamic configurations of high-latitude flux tubes, (7) loss-cone effects of wave-particle interactions, (8) hot-cold plasma interactions, (9) ionospheric effects of particle precipitation, and (10) plasma convection at high altitudes. The instrument contained an array of 15 parabolic electrostatic analyzers of the ISIS 2 type, each with an electron channel and an ion channel, in order to obtain detailed pitch-angle distributions as a function of energy. Two Geiger-Mueller counters were mounted on the scan platform. The basic mode of operation provided a 32-point energy spectrum in the range 5 eV to 32 kev every second. The voltages on the electrostatic analyzers were programmable to allow for greater space/time resolution over limited portions of the energy and angular distributions. The instrument was mounted on a one-axis scan platform controlled by a magnetometer, whose purpose was to maintain the detector array, which spanned 180 deg, at a nearly constant angle to the magnetic field. Additional details are found in J. D. Winningham et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 465, 1981. From March 16, 1982 to April 4, 1982 the instrument was turned off for corrective action.

- Description
The DE-2 spacecraft (low-altitude mission) complemented the high-altitude mission DE-1and was placed into an orbit with a perigee sufficiently low to permit measurements of neutral composition, temperature, and wind. The apogee was high enough to permit measurements above the interaction regions of suprathermal ions, and also plasma flow measurements at the feet of the magnetospheric field lines. The general form of the spacecraft was a short polygon 137 cm in diameter and 115 cm high. The triaxial antennas were 23 m tip-to-tip. One 6-m boom was provided for remote measurements. The spacecraft weight was 403 kg. Power was supplied by a solar cell array, which charged two 6-ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries. The spacecraft was three-axis stabilized with the yaw axis aligned toward the center of the earth to within 1 deg. The spin axis was normal to the orbit plane within 1 deg with a spin rate of one revolution per orbit. A single-axis scan platform was included in order to mount the low-altitude plasma instrument (81-070B-08). The platform rotated about the spin axis. A pulse code modulation telemetry data system was used that operated in real time or in a tape-recorder mode. Data were acquired on a science-problem-oriented basis, with closely coordinated operations of the various instruments, both satellites, and supportive experiments. Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 349, 1981. DE-2 reentered the atmosphere on February 19, 1983. The Low-Altitude Plasma Instrument (LAPI) provided high-resolution velocity space measurements of positive ions and electrons from 5 eV to 32 keV. The two Geiger-Mueller counter tubes (0 and 90 deg) measured trapped electrons and precipitating electrons above 35 keV as integral number flux. Pitch angle measurements covered the full 180 deg range. Data from this investigation and supporting measurements were used to study (1) the identification and intensities of Birkeland currents, (2) auroral particle source regions and acceleration mechanisms, (3) the existence and role of E parallel to B, (4) sources and effects of polar cap particle fluxes, (5) the transport of plasma within and through the magnetospheric cusp, (6) dynamic configurations of high-latitude flux tubes, (7) loss-cone effects of wave-particle interactions, (8) hot-cold plasma interactions, (9) ionospheric effects of particle precipitation, and (10) plasma convection at high altitudes.

- Description
The DE-2 spacecraft (low-altitude mission) complemented the high-altitude mission DE-1and was placed into an orbit with a perigee sufficiently low to permit measurements of neutral composition, temperature, and wind. The apogee was high enough to permit measurements above the interaction regions of suprathermal ions, and also plasma flow measurements at the feet of the magnetospheric field lines. The general form of the spacecraft was a short polygon 137 cm in diameter and 115 cm high. The triaxial antennas were 23 m tip-to-tip. One 6-m boom was provided for remote measurements. The spacecraft weight was 403 kg. Power was supplied by a solar cell array, which charged two 6-ampere-hour nickel-cadmium batteries. The spacecraft was three-axis stabilized with the yaw axis aligned toward the center of the earth to within 1 deg. The spin axis was normal to the orbit plane within 1 deg with a spin rate of one revolution per orbit. A single-axis scan platform was included in order to mount the low-altitude plasma instrument (81-070B-08). The platform rotated about the spin axis. A pulse code modulation telemetry data system was used that operated in real time or in a tape-recorder mode. Data were acquired on a science-problem-oriented basis, with closely coordinated operations of the various instruments, both satellites, and supportive experiments. Measurements were temporarily stored on tape recorders before transmission at an 8:1 playback-to-record ratio. Since commands were also stored in a command memory unit, spacecraft operations were not real time. Additional details can be found in R. A. Hoffman et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 349, 1981. DE-2 reentered the atmosphere on February 19, 1983. The Low-Altitude Plasma Instrument (LAPI) provided high-resolution velocity space measurements of positive ions and electrons from 5 eV to 32 keV. The two Geiger-Mueller counter tubes (0 and 90 deg) measured trapped electrons and precipitating electrons above 35 keV as integral number flux. Pitch angle measurements covered the full 180 deg range. Data from this investigation and supporting measurements were used to study (1) the identification and intensities of Birkeland currents, (2) auroral particle source regions and acceleration mechanisms, (3) the existence and role of E parallel to B, (4) sources and effects of polar cap particle fluxes, (5) the transport of plasma within and through the magnetospheric cusp, (6) dynamic configurations of high-latitude flux tubes, (7) loss-cone effects of wave-particle interactions, (8) hot-cold plasma interactions, (9) ionospheric effects of particle precipitation, and (10) plasma convection at high altitudes. The instrument contained an array of 15 parabolic electrostatic analyzers of the ISIS 2 type, each with an electron channel and an ion channel, in order to obtain detailed pitch-angle distributions as a function of energy. Two Geiger-Mueller counters were mounted on the scan platform. The basic mode of operation provided a 32-point energy spectrum in the range 5 eV to 32 kev every second. The voltages on the electrostatic analyzers were programmable to allow for greater space/time resolution over limited portions of the energy and angular distributions. The instrument was mounted on a one-axis scan platform controlled by a magnetometer, whose purpose was to maintain the detector array, which spanned 180 deg, at a nearly constant angle to the magnetic field. Additional details are found in J. D. Winningham et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 465, 1981. From March 16, 1982 to April 4, 1982 the instrument was turned off for corrective action.

- DE2_NEUTRAL1S_NACS doi:10.48322/j8kp-5y58
- Description
The Neutral Atmosphere Composition Spectrometer (NACS) was designed to obtain in situ measurements of the neutral atmospheric composition and to study the variations of the neutral atmosphere in response to energy coupled into it from the magnetosphere. Because temperature enhancements, large-scale circulation cells, and wave propagation are produced by energy input (each of which posseses a specific signature in composition variation), the measurements permitted the study of the partition, flow, and deposition of energy from the magnetosphere. Specifically, the investigation objective was to characterize the composition of the neutral atmosphere with particular emphasis on variability in constituent densities driven by interactions in the atmosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere system. The quadrupole mass spectrometer used was nearly identical to those flown on the AE-C, -D, and -E missions. The electron-impact ion source was used in a closed mode. Atmospheric particles entered an antechamber through a knife-edged orifice, where they were thermalized to the instrument temperature. The ions with the selected charge-to-mass ratios had stable trajectories through the hyperbolic electric field, exited the analyzer, and entered the detection system. An off-axis beryllium-copper dynode multiplier operating at a gain of 2.E6 provided an output pulse of electrons for each ion arrival. The detector output had a pulse rate proportional to the neutral density in the ion source of the selected mass. The instrument also included two baffles that scanned across the input orifice for optional measurement of the zonal and vertical components of the neutral wind. The mass select system provided for 256 mass values between 0 and 51 atomic mass units (u) or each 0.2 u. It was possible to call any one of these mass numbers into each of eight 0.016-s intervals. This sequence was repeated each 0.128 s. More details are found in G. R. Carignan et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 429, 1981. This data set includes daily files of the PI-provided DE-2 NACS 1-second data and corresponding orbit parameters. The data set was generated at NSSDC from the original PI-provided data and software (SPTH-00010) and from the orbit/attitude database and software that is part of the DE-2 UA data set (SPIO-00174). The original NACS data were provided by the PI team in a highly compressed VAX/VMS binary format on magnetic tapes. The data set covers the whole DE-2 mission time period. Each data point is an average over the normally 8 measurements per second. Densities and relative errors are provided for atomic oxygen (O), molecular nitrogen (N2), helium (He), atomic nitrogen (N), and argon (Ar). The data quality is generally quite good below 500 km, but deteriorates towards higher altitudes as oxygen and molecular nitrogen approach their background values (which could only be determined from infrequent spinning orbits) and the count rate for Ar becomes very low. The difference between minimum (background) and maximum count rate for atomic nitrogen (estimated from mass 30) was so small that results are generally poor. Data were lost between 12 March 1982 and 31 March 1982 when the counter overflowed.

- Description
The Fabry-Perot Interferometer (FPI) was a high-resolution remote sensing instrument designed to measure the thermospheric temperature, meridional wind, and density of the following metastable atoms: atomic oxygen (singlet S and D) and the 2P state of ionic atomic oxygen. The FPI performed a wavelength analysis on the light detected from the thermospheric emission features by spatially scanning the interference fringe plane with a multichannel array detector. The wavelength analysis characterized the Doppler line profile of the emitting species. A sequential altitude scan performed by a commandable horizon scan mirror provided a cross-sectional view of the thermodynamic and dynamic state of the thermosphere below the DE 2 orbit. The information obtained from this investigation was used to study the dynamic response of the thermosphere to the energy sources caused by magnetospheric electric fields and the absorption of solar ultraviolet light in the thermosphere. The instrument was based on the visible airglow experiment (VAE) used in the AE program. The addition of a scanning mirror, the Fabry-Perot etalon, an image plane detector, and a calibration lamp were the principal differences. Interference filters isolated lines at (in Angstroms) 5577, 6300, 7320, 5896, and 5200. The FPI had a field of view of 0.53 deg (half-cone angle). More details are found in P. B. Hays et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 395, 1981. From February 16, 1982 to September 11, 1982 the DE satellite was inverted and the FPI measured galactic emissions. NOTE: Animations of DE2-FPI science products have been created as daily summary files. The animations contain binned averages displayed as a colour code against a geographic background. The bin sizes are 7.5 deg latitude and 24.0 degree longitude. The longitude bin corresponds to the approximate separation of adjacent orbits, assuming that DE2 completed 15 orbits per day. The animations are divided into day (06-18 LST) and night (18-06 LST). All summary file information and animations employ spacecraft orbital attitude data. Users should note 1) that the DE2-FPI experiment acquired airglow spectra by imaging the terrestrial limb below and ahead of the spacecraft at an approximate tangent altitude of 250 km; 2) all airglow spectra were acquired while the DE2 spacecraft orbited in it's normal configuration, which corresponded to calendar months August to February in 1981/2 and 1982/3; 3) the orbital inclination of DE2 was 90 degrees implying that DE2-FPI always viewed ahead along the meridian; 4) that DE2 flew in an elliptical orbit with perigee of 305 km and apogee of 1300 km at launch -- the altitude of DE2 for each FPI measurement is included with each reduced data point permitting users to determine the tangent latitude corresponding to the 250 km terrestrial airglow limb. The three gif animations are: 1. FPI_brightness.gif which documents the OI (6300A) column brightness in units of log10 Rayleighs. Note different scales for day and night. 2. FPI_temperature.gif which documents the neutral thermosphere temperature in units of degrees Kelvin. 3. FPI_wind.gif which documents the line of sight neutral wind component in units of meters/second. The wind direction is positive when the wind blows away from the approaching spacecraft.

- Description
The Langmuir Probe Instrument (LANG) was a cylindrical electrostatic probe that obtained measurements of electron temperature, Te, and electron or ion concentration, Ne or Ni, respectively, and spacecraft potential. Data from this investigation were used to provide temperature and density measurements along magnetic field lines related to thermal energy and particle flows within the magnetosphere-ionosphere system, to provide thermal plasma conditions for wave-particle interactions, and to measure large-scale and fine-structure ionospheric effects of energy deposition in the ionosphere. The Langmuir Probe instrument was identical to that used on the AE satellites and the Pioneer Venus Orbiter. Two independent sensors were connected to individual adaptive sweep voltage circuits which continuously tracked the changing electron temperature and spacecraft potential, while autoranging electrometers adjusted their gain in response to the changing plasma density. The control signals used to achieve this automatic tracking provided a continuous monitor of the ionospheric parameters without telemetering each volt-ampere (V-I) curve. Furthermore, internal data storage circuits permitted high resolution, high data rate sampling of selected V-I curves for transmission to ground to verify or correct the inflight processed data. Time resolution was 0.5 seconds. More details are in J. P. Krehbiel et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 493, 1981. The Dynamics Explorer 2 Langmuir Probe (LANG) ASCII files contain the following geophysical parameters: electron temperature, plasma density, and satellite potential. They also contain the most important DE-2 orbit parameters. The geophysical parameters in the ASCII files were derived.from the raw volt-ampere data from LANG. PI-provided software was used to convert the raw binary data into the ASCII geophysical data.

- Description
This data set was generated at NSSDC from the DE-2 Unified Abstract (UA) data and the DE-2 orbit/attitude data base and software. The daily UA files contain 16 second averages from the NACS, WATS, LANG, FPI and RPA/IDM instruments for the whole DE-2 mission period. The PI-provided data in VAX/VMS binary format were converted to ASCII format and the most important orbit parameters were added using the a/o data base and software provided by the DE project team. Subsetting, plotting, and downloading (in ASCII format) capabilities for these data are provided through the ATMOWeb interface at https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/atmoweb/The ASCII are are also available from here: https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/data/de/de2/ Each UA record contains the following data: N2, O, He, Ar, and N densities [cm-3] from the Neutral Atmosphere Composition Spectrometer (NACS), neutral temperature [K], eastward and upward neutral wind [m/s] from the Wind and Temperature Spectrometer (WATS), plasma density [cm-3] and electron temperature [K] from the Langmuir Probe experiment (LANG), wavelength [A], tangent altitude [km], northward neutral wind [m/s], neutral temperature [K], and intensity [Raleighs], from the Fabry Interferometer (FPI), ion temperature [K], total ion density [cm-3], eastward, northward, and upward ion drift [m/s] from the Retarding Potential Analyzer/Ion Drift Meter (RPA/IDM). The IDM data entry is the revised version of June 1994. Also included are the latitude, longitude, altitude, local time and other orbit parameters. Higher time resolution data are available from NSSDC for the individual experiments at https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/data/de/de2/ This investigation used data from several spacecraft instruments to study the large-scale neutral-plasma interactions in the thermosphere caused by magnetospheric-ionospheric and thermospheric coupling processes. Planned use of the models is to provide a theoretical framework in which certain important ionospheric and atmospheric properties needed for coupling processes (such as the Pedersen and Hall conductivities) were consistently calculated using satellite data measured at a given height. Planned examples are (1) to calculate vertical profiles of ionospheric properties that were useful for comparison with incoherent scatter radar measurements and other ground-based supporting data, (2) to identify and evaluate the neutral thermospheric heat and momentum sources, and (3) to determine the effectiveness of high-latitude dynamic processes in controlling the global thermospheric circulation and thermal structure.

- DE2_VION250MS_IDM doi:10.48322/reef-jt02
- Description
The Ion Drift Meter (IDM) measured the bulk motions of the ionospheric plasma perpendicular to the satellite velocity vector. The measured parameters, horizontal and vertical ion-drift velocities, had an expected range of plus or minus 4 km/s. The accuracy of the measurement was expected to be plus or minus 50 m/s for the anticipated 0.5 deg accuracy in vehicle attitude determination. The nominal time resolution of the measurement was 1/32 s. This investigation yielded information on (1) the ion convection (electric field) pattern in the auroral and polar ionosphere; (2) the flow of plasma along magnetic field lines within the plasmasphere, which determines whether this motion was simply a breathing of the protonosphere, a refilling of this region after a storm, or an interhemispheric transport of plasma; (3) the thermal ion contribution to field-aligned electric currents; (4) velocity fields associated with small-scale phenomena that are important at both low and high latitudes; and (5) the magnitude and variation of the total concentration along the flight path. The ion drift meter measured the plasma motion parallel to the sensor face by using a gridded collimator and multiple collectors to determine the direction of arrival of the plasma. The instrument geometry was very similar to that used on the Atmosphere Explorer satellites. Each sensor consisted of a square entrance aperture that served as collimator, some electrically isolating grids, and a segmented planar collector. The angle of arrival of the ions with respect to the sensor was determined by measuring the ratio of the currents to the different collector segments, and this was done by taking the difference in the logarithms of the current. Two techniques were used to determine this ratio. In the standard drift sensor (SDS), the collector segments were connected in pairs to two logarithmic amplifiers. The second technique, called the univeral drift sensor (UDS), allowed simultaneous measurement of both components. Here, each collector segment was permanently connected to a logarithmic amplifier and two difference amplifiers were used to determine the horizontal and vertical arrival angles simultaneously. The IDM consisted of two sensors, one providing the SDS output and the other providing the UDS output. Further details are in R. A. Heelis et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 511, 1981. During the period from 81317 to 82057 the instrument memory suffered a critical upset and ion temperatures and drifts are not available during this period. This data set is available from here: https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/data/de/de2/ It includes the high-resolution data from the Dynamics Explorer 2 (DE-2) Ion Drift Meter (IDM) for the whole DE-2 mission time period in ASCII format. This data set was generated at NSSDC by converting the PI-provided data set (SPIO-00232) from binary to ASCII format. The IDM data files provide absolute measurements of the cross track ion drift velocity 4 times per second. The complete drift vector can be obtained by combining IDM and RPA ion drift measurements.

- DE2_WIND2S_WATS doi:10.48322/z50y-hd65
- Description
The Wind and Temperature Spectrometer (WATS) measured the in situ neutral winds, the neutral particle temperatures, and the concentrations of selected gases. The objective of this investigation was to study the interrelationships among the winds, temperatures, plasma drift, electric fields, and other properties of the thermosphere that were measured by this and other instruments on the spacecraft. Knowledge of how these properties are interrelated contributed to an understanding of the consequences of the acceleration of neutral particles by the ions in the ionosphere, the acceleration of ions by neutrals creating electric fields, and the related energy transfer between the ionosphere and the magnetosphere. Three components of the wind, one normal to the satellite velocity vector in the horizontal plane, one vertical, and one in the satellite direction were measured. A retarding potential quadrupole mass spectrometer, coupled to the atmosphere through a precisely orificed antechamber, was used. It was operated in either of two modes: one employed the retarding capability and the other used the ion source as a conventional nonretarding source. Two scanning baffles were used in front of the mass spectrometer: one moved vertically and the other moved horizontally. The magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical components of the wind normal to the spacecraft velocity vector were computed from measurements of the angular relationship between the neutral particle stream and the sensor. The component of the total stream velocity in the satellite direction was measured directly by the spectrometer system through determination of the required retarding potential. At altitudes too high for neutral species measurements, the planned operation required the instrument to measure the thermal ion species only. A series of four sequentially occurring slots --each a 2-s long measurement interval-- was adapted for the basic measurement format of the instrument. Different functions were commanded into these slots in any combination, one per measurement interval. Thus the time resolution can be 2, 4, 6, or 8 seconds. Further details are found in N. W. Spencer et al., Space Sci. Instrum., v. 5, n. 4, p. 417, 1981. This data set consists of the high-resolution data of the Dynamics .Explorer 2 Wind and Temperature Spectrometer (WATS) experiment. The files contain the neutral density, temperature and horizontal (zonal) wind velocity, and orbital parameters in ASCII format. The time resolution is typically 2 seconds. Data are given as daily files (typically a few 100 Kbytes each). PI-provided software (WATSCOR) was used to correct the binary data set. NSSDC-developed software was used to add the orbit parameters, to convert the binary into ASCII format and to combine the (PI-provided) orbital files into daily files. For more on DE-2, WATS, and the binary data, see the WATS_VOLDESC_SFDU_DE.DOC and WATS_FORMAT_SFDU_DE.DOC files. More information about the processing done at NSSDC is given in WATS_NSSDC_PRO_DE.DOC.

- Description
Instrument functional description: The spin-scan auroral imagers (SAI) comprise three photometers which provide images of Earth at various wavelengths via interference filters mounted on a wheel and selected by ground command. Two of the photometers provide visible wavelength images, and the third provides images at vacuum-ultraviolet wavelengths. The three photometers are mounted on the spacecraft such that their fields of view are separated by about 120 degrees in a plane oriented perpendicular to the spin axis. Each photometer in operation collects one scan line during each spacecraft rotation, with an internal mirror stepping once per rotation to start a new scan line. An auroral image is a nadir-centered two-dimensional pixel array provided by the spacecraft rotation and the photometer's stepping mirror which advances the field of view 0.25 degrees once per rotation in a direction perpendicular to the plane of rotation. A change in mirror- stepping direction signals the start of a new image. One, two, or three photometers may be in operation at one time. The images from all operating photometers are telemetered simultaneously with image repetition rates that typically vary from about 3 to 12 minutes. One of the three imaging photometers is equipped with filters and a photocathode for observations at vacuum-ultraviolet wavelengths, in particular emissions of the Lyman-Birge-Hopfield band of molecular nitrogen at about 140 to 170 nm. Imaging at these wavelengths allows coverage of the auroral oval in both the dark and sunlit ionospheres. The filter array for the vacuum-ultraviolet imaging photometer also includes filters for atomic hydrogen Lyman alpha at 121.6 nm and oxygen lines at 130.4 and 135.6 nm. The full width of the fields of view of the photometers corresponding to a single pixel is 0.29 degrees. An image frame consists of all scan lines obtained by mirror steps in one direction which deflect the field of view by 0.25 degrees per rotation. The angular separation of two consecutive pixels in the direction of spacecraft rotation is about 0.23 degrees. A full frame has 120 scan lines or 30 degrees of width. For routine processing the angular width along a scan line is 150 pixels, or about 34.5 degrees of length. The frame width is occasionally adjusted to less than 120 scan lines. Reference: Frank, L. A., J. D. Craven, K. L. Ackerson, M. R. English, R. H. Eather, and R. L. Carovillano, Global auroral imaging instrumentation for the Dynamics Explorer mission, Space Sci. Inst., 5, 369-393, 1981. Data set description: Each DE SAI UV image CDF contains all of images collected by the UV photometer during one day of operations. The displayable image counts are in variable 3. Coordinates are calculated for each position of the image count array. These coordinates are in variables 14, 15, and 16. To facilitate viewing of the images, a mapping of pixel value to a recommended color table based on the characteristics of the selected filter will be included with each image. See the description of variables 17, 18, and 19 below. A relative intensity scale is provided by the uncompressed count table of variable 20. Approximate intensity levels in kiloRayleighs are given in the intensity table of variable 21. Other variables provide orbit and attitude data and information about the selected filter and the mirror stepping direction. Variable descriptions: 1,2. Start time The time assigned to an image is the start time of the initial scan line within a resolution of one second. 3. Image counts Image pixel counts range from 0 to 255. They are stored in a two- dimensional byte array of 121 columns by 150 rows. Each column contains one scan line. Images will generally not fill all of the 121 columns. When an image is displayed with row 1 at the top and column 1 on the left, the spacecraft spin axis is oriented to the left in the display, and the orbit normal vector is oriented to the right. 4. Filter Twelve filters are available for ultra-violet imaging; the filter number, 1-12, is given here. In addition, the peak wavelength in Angstroms is given for the selected filter. 5. Presumed altitude of emissions The presumed altitude of the emissions seen in the image varies with the characteristics of the filter used. 6,7. First and last mirror location counters (MLCs) The MLC range is from 28 in column 1 (leftmost) to 148 in column 121 (rightmost). The direction of mirror stepping motion is shown by comparing first and last MLCs. 8. Orbit/attitude time Whenever possible, the approximate center time of the image is used for determining the orbit and attitude parameters. If O/A data is not available for the center time, the closest available O/A time is used. 9. Spacecraft position vector, GCI 10. Spacecraft velocity vector, GCI 11. Spacecraft spin axis unit vector, GCI 12. Sun position unit vector, GCI 13. Orbit normal unit vector, GCI 14. Geographic longitude or right ascension East longitude is given for each image pixel on the Earth at the altitude given in variable 5. When the pixel altitude is greater than the value of variable 5, the right ascension is given. 15. Geographic latitude or declination North latitude is given for each image pixel on the Earth at the altitude given in variable 5. When the pixel altitude is greater than the value of variable 5, the declination is given. 16. Pixel altitude For each image pixel on the Earth, the presumed altitude of the emissions is used. This is equal to the value of variable 5. For each pixel off the Earth, the altitude of the line of sight is used. 17. Pixel UT This array gives the start time for the collection of each image pixel. 18. RGB color table This is the recommended color table to be used with the limits given in variables 19 and 20. 19,20. Low and high color mapping limits The low and high color limits are recommended for remapping the color table entries, as follows: For pixel values less than the low limit, use the color at table position 1. For pixel values greater than or equal to the low limit and less than or equal to the high limit, use the color at table position (pix-low)/(high-low) x 255 + 1. For pixel values greater than the high limit, use the color at table position 256. 21. Expanded count table The image pixel counts are quasi-logarithmically compressed to the range 0-255. This table gives the average of the uncompressed range for each compressed count value. Table entries 1-128 correspond to compressed counts 0-127 respectively. Count levels greater than 127 are considered overflow. 22. Intensity table For each of the twelve filters, approximate intensity levels in kiloRayleighs are given for each compressed count value. Table entries 1-128 correspond to compressed counts 0-127 respectively. No count conversion data is available for count levels greater than 127. Supporting software: Directions for obtaining supporting software is available on the SAI website at the URL .http://www-pi.physics.uiowa.edu/www/desai/software/. Included is an IDL program that displays the images with the recommended color bar and provides approximate intensities and coordinate data for each pixel.

- Ultraviolet Image (quasi-logarithmically compressed counts) [Image_Counts]
Image_Counts contains the displayable image in 121 columns by 150 rows of pixels. Most images will use 120 of the columns. The counts have been quasi-logarithmically compressed by the instrument. Approximate uncompressed value for Image_Counts(i,j) is ExpandedCount(Image_Counts(i,j)+1). Approximate intensity in kR is Intens_Table(Image_Counts(i,j)+1).The appearance of the actual count value 255 is rare. When displaying an image,it works best to use the fill value as an overflow (i.e. brightest) value.

Negative fluxes reflect low count rates and background subtraction. The width of lowest energy channel is variable. Pitch angle coverage is NOT uniform. Conversion to velocity space density, calculations of density and other operations involving division by a characteristic energy are limited in accuracy by energy bands that are wide compared to the fall off of flux with energy.
- ---> ONE Standard deviation of O+ number flux at 15 energy and 14 pitch angle bins. [o_uncertainty]

Uncertainly estimated from the observed total signal counts. The width of lowest energy channel is variable. Pitch angle coverage is NOT uniform.
- Background count rate interpolated to center time. scalar [INTERPOLATED_BACKGROUND]
Because the backgrounddoes, at times, vary rapidly on the 96 second averaging period the background counting rate has been interpolated intime to reflect the expected background counting rate at the center of the averaging interval. The ion flux may be time alised in regions of rapidly varying INTERPOLATED_BACKGROUND.
- ---> One standard deviation of Interpolated Background. scalar [STANDARD_DEVIATION_OF_INTERPOLATED_BACKGROUND]
Determined from the total number ofbackground counts observed in the 96averaging period.
- Lowest Energy above the spacecraft potential accepted. scalar [Low_energy_cut_off]
The Center_energy of the lowest energy channel must be corrected for Low_energy_cut_off above 0.015 keV
- Bitwise combination of He_data,N_flag, C_flag, A_flag, Noisy_flag, Short_flag, and PA_coverage_flag. scalar [Mode_error_flag]
This variable is displayed as a bitwisespectrogram by the idl check_cdf.pro code available from pete@willow.space.lockheed.com Interpretation of Values: 0/1: 0=He+ data. 1=No He+ data 0/2: 0=NOT BCLIST N flag indicating that data are missing or care must be taken in processing or interpreting them. 2= N flag on. 0/4: 0=NOT BCLIST C flag indicating that data in the lowest energy channel are contaminated by extra counts from a EUV photoionization of residual gas in the input aperture. 4=C flag on. 0/8: 0=NOT BCLIST A flag indicating that full attitude are available in the full archived data file.

He+ fluxes are available for approximately 50% of the data intervalsin this archive. He_data is set on a per record basis
- ---> Data valid flag 0=good; 1=Not available or use with caution [N_flag]
Some valid data may be included in the telemetry segment, but some of the data in the segment are invalid and must not be includedin long term average data sets.This is the N flag described in the EICSDATA.LIS file and other documentation accompanying the EICS_STAND_ALONE_TELEMETRY_FILE_SYSTEM from NSSDC or on line on the DE project home page on the Space Physics Data System. This flag is set on a telemetryinterval (segment) basis.

Geophys. Res. Lett. 9, p942, 1982. This is the C data quality flag described in the EICSDATA.LIS file and other documentation accompanying the EICS_STAND_ALONE_TELEMETRY_FILE_SYSTEM from NSSDC or on line on the DE project home page on the Space Physics Data System.
- ---> Attitude Available Flag 0: Source data CAN provide sensor orientation relative to the spacecraft velocity. 1: CAN NOT [A_flag]
Information variable. Does not apply to data in this CDF. If set to 0 information about the direction of plasma motion with respect to the satellite motion may be obtained from the the full resolution EICS_STAND_ALONE_TELEMETRY_FILE_SYSTEM archived at NSSDC. This is the A data quality flag described in the EICSDATA.LIS file and other documentation accompanying the EICS_STAND_ALONE_TELEMETRY_FILE_SYSTEM from NSSDC or on line on the DE project home page on the Space Physics Data System.
- ---> Supplemental Data Valid Flag #1 0=good; 1= Telemetry interval contains unphysically high signal levels [Noisy_flag]

These intervals were identified by their characteristic patchyness on energy-time and angle-time spectrograms. Data from intervals where the Noisy_flag=1 WERE NOT included in the large-scale statistical studies referenced in the global attributes.Some valid data may be included in the telemetry segment
- ---> Supplemental Data Valid Flag #2 0=good; 1=Too short to evaluate data quality. [Short_flag]
1 indicates that a visual examination of color spectrograms was not possible because the data interval was too short. The data quality flags that depend on visual examination are: C_flag, A_flag, Noisy_flag, and PA_coverage_flag.
- ---> Pitch Angle Coverage Flag 0=good; 1=Incomplete PA coverage. [PA_coverage_flag]
Data for some pitch angle ranges may contain fill indicating that the full pitch angle range was notsampled. This occurs when the magnetic field does not lie within the satellite spin plane. The flag is set to 1 when a visual examination of color spectrograms show that data are not available in all pitch angle bins. This flag is set on a telemetry segment basis.
- ---> Quality Flags Corrupted 0=OK ; 1= Information Lost [Q_FLAG_FILE_CORRUPTED]
Quality flag information for DE/EICSwas created in a keyed file using VMSspecific file management. In the almost15 years this file has been maintained records for some time intervals have become corrupted.

- DSCOVR_H1_FC (spase://NOAA/NumericalData/DSCOVR/PlasMag/FaradayCup/CDF/PT1M)
- Description
Best fit parameters from nonlinear fitting of a single, isotropic Maxwellian velocity distribution function to sets of DSCOVR Faraday Cup measurements of the solar wind thermal proton peak. 1-minute resolution data are obtained by fitting to the 1-minute integrated distributions, comprising ~15 as-measured charged current spectra each. Reported uncertainties are fitting uncertainties, which do not account for so-called prior uncertainties associated with non-Maxwellian distributions in nature or with conditions that vary on timescales faster than 1 minute. The uncertainties associated with measurement of charged flux as a function of energy are propagated. Certain empirical corrections have been applied.

- ENDURANCE_L1B_PES
- Description
The Endurance PES instrument was comprised of 8 boom-mounted Dual Electrostatic Analyzer (DESA) sensors, and a main electronics box (MEB). Each DESA sensor had two look directions; A-side (looking down to Earth from launch to pitch-over maneuver, and then up to space until loss of signal (LOS)); and B-side (looking up to space from launch to pitch-over, and then down to Earth until loss of signal (LOS)). The sensors were synchronized by the MEB and cross-calibrated to look at approximately the same energy at the same time. A PES sweep consisted of 81 different steps and took 10 seconds. At each step, a voltage could be applied to the Electrostatic Analyzer (ESA) and/or the Retarding Potential Analyzer (RPA). Of these 81 steps; 3 (0, 1, 44) were used to take background counts with the ESA grounded, and to fire the SLP; 34 (2:9, 33, 56:80) were used to collect the standard resolution data measurement (15% DE/E, 10eV to 1keV) using the ESA alone; and 44 (10:32, 34:43, 45:55) were used to collect the high-resolution measurement (0.5% DE/E, 20.3 eV to 25.85 eV) using the ESA and RPA combined.”

- Caveats
This file has particularly bad background problems due to intense radiation belts from ~08:00-10:00 UT. This file contains both onboard calculated moments (labeled "raw" with an "*" in the name) and moments calculated on the ground from 3D distributions (labeled "final"). Quantitative analysis should be done with the "final" moments. The raw data should only be used qualitatively for identifying regions and temporal variations. It has large errors, particularly in Vz in spacecraft coordinates. O+ and He+ data should not be used in the magnetosheath or at low L-values, due to background problems. Contact the LI at Lynn.Kistler@unh.edu if the data you need is not available on-line.

- Data Variable Descriptions
- DeltaB in Despun Spacecraft Coordinates [DeltaB_DSC]
DeltaB in Despun Spacecraft Coordinates. Model Magnetic Field is IGRF version 11. Despun Spacecraft Coordinates (DSC) are defined as: z-axis along the spin-axis; y-axis in the spin-plane, perpendicular to the Sun-direction; and x completing the triad x-y-z. Detrended (DeltaB) data have bad data deleted, DEL_MAG_FLAG = 1.
- DeltaB in Geocentric Equatorial Inertial Coordinates [DeltaB_GEI]
DeltaB in Geocentric Equatorial Inertial coordinates. Model Magnetic Field is IGRF version 11. Detrended (DeltaB) data have bad data deleted, DEL_MAG_FLAG = 1.
- DeltaB in Solar Magnetic Coordinates [DeltaB_SM]
DeltaB in Solar Magnetic coordinates. Model magnetic field and dipole axis direction from IGRF version 11. Detrended (DeltaB) data have bad data deleted, DEL_MAG_FLAG = 1.
- DeltaB in Field-Aligned Coordinates [DeltaB_FAC]
DeltaB in Field-Aligned Coordinates. Model Magnetic Field is IGRF version 11. Field-Aligned Coordinates (FAC) defined as: 'b' along the model magnetic field; 'e' as East, in the direction of B-cross-R; and 'o' outwards, completing the triad o-e-b. Near the poles 'outwards' points towards the respective north or south pole. Detrended (DeltaB) data have bad data deleted, DEL_MAG_FLAG = 1.
- DeltaB in Field-Aligned Spacecraft Coordinates [DeltaB_FAC_V]
DeltaB in Field-Aligned spacecraft coordinates. Model Magnetic Field is IGRF version 11. Field-aligned spacecraft coordinates use the spacecraft velocity vector (hence DeltaB_FAC_V) in specifying the coordinate system, which is defined as: 'b' along the model magnetic field; 'p' perpendicular, in the direction of B-cross-vel_spacecraft, that is, across track; and 'v' nominally along the spacecraft velocity vector, along track, completing the triad v-p-b. Detrended (DeltaB) data have bad data deleted, DEL_MAG_FLAG = 1.
- DeltaB in Field-Aligned/Spin Plane Coordinates [DeltaB_FAC_SP]
DeltaB in Field-Aligned/Spin Plane Coordinates. Model Magnetic Field is IGRF version 11. Field-aligned/spin plane coordinates use the spin plane (hence DeltaB_FAC_SP) in specifying the coordinate system, which is defined as: 'b' along the model magnetic field; 's' in the spin-axis cross model B direction, that is, in the spin-plane and perpendicular to the model field; and 'p' perpendicular (B x (spin-axis x B)), nominally along the spin-axis, completing the triad s-p-b. The spin-plane coordinate 's' is in the same direction as the despun electric field "E along V" component. Note that "E along V" is nominally along the spacecraft velocity only in the northern hemisphere, and is nominally anti-parallel to the spacecraft velocity vector in the southern hemisphere. The "E along V" electric field crossed with the p-component of "deltaB_FAC_SP" contributes to the field-aligned Poynting flux. In this s-p-b coordinate system, positive field-aligned Poynting flux is into the northern ionosphere, but away from the southern ionosphere. The other contribution to the field-aligned Poynting flux would be from the p-component of the electric field crossed with the s-component of the DeltaB magnetic field, but the p-component of the electric field is mainly given by the spin-axis electric field measurement. Because one of the axial booms did not deploy on FAST the spin-axis electric field is generally not used. Detrended (DeltaB) data have bad data deleted, DEL_MAG_FLAG = 1.

- Magnetometer Data Quality Flag [MAG_QUAL_FLAG]
The Magnetometer Data Quality Flags are additive. Flag values 1 - 16 are Torquer and other data processing flags. Flag values 32 - 2048 are Spin phase related flags. Flag values 4096 and 8192 are related to calibration quality. Any data with a flag value 2048 or greater should be used with care. Flag values: 0 good; 1 Torquers on; 2 Torquer ramp; 4 Nutation [TBD]; 8 Torquer offset determined from spin plane offset; 16 Torquer offset adjusted by hand 32 spin phase object set to zero; 64 in eclipse (using nadir table); 128 RESERVED; 256 RESERVED; 512 spin phase data not smoothed; 1024 spin phase data patched with nadir or Mission Unique Electronics (MUE) phase data; 2048 Missing spin phase data; 4096 Caution set in Magnetometer Calibration File; 8192 Warning set in Magnetometer Calibration File.

Steinacher, Measurement Techniques for Space Plasmas: Particles, 1998, Geophysical Monograph Series, volume 102, pages 243-248. Data are derived from a time-of-flight mass spectrograph that determines 3-dimensional distribution functions of individual ion species over the energy range 1 - 12000 eV, within 2.5 seconds (one-half spacecraft spin). The instrument consists of a toroidal top-hat electrostatic analyzer with instantaneous acceptance of ions over 360 degrees in polar angle in 16 sectors. Ions passing through the electrostatic analyzer are postaccelerated by up to 25 kV and then analyzed for mass per charge in a foil-based time-of-flight analyzer. The data used to construct CDF data products are derived from the Survey data. Survey data consists of 4 mass groups x 48 energies x 64 solid angle segments. The 4 mass groups are H+, O+, He+, and He++. Only the 16 equatorial angle segments are used for the CDF data set. Each equatorial solid angle segment contains 2 (4) samples at each energy in the 32 (64) sweep/spin mode. The full angular range is covered in half a spin but the actual time resolution of the survey data product depends upon the telemetry mode. In the highest TM rate modes H+ and O+ survey data read out every half spin. In lowest TM rate mode these data are accumulated for 4 spins. The minimum accumulation time included in the CDF is 1 spin, so if the actual accumulation time is a half spin, two data points are averaged. Otherwise, the full resolution is included. In every mode He+ and He++ are accumulated twice as long as H+ and O+. To force the H+, O+, and He+ to have an equal number of data points when H+ and O+ have twice the time resolution, each He+ data point is written twice consecutively in the file.

- FM_K0_KILP (spase://GBO/NumericalData/FMI/Kilpisjarvi/AllSkyCamera/K0/PT1M)
- Description
Keograms are quick-look data of an all-sky camera at Kilpisjarvi (69.02 N, 20.79 E) maintained and operated by the Finnish Meteorological Institute. Keograms show the intensity along the middle meridian of the camera field-of-view as a function of time. The camera has a fish-eye lens of 180 degrees and narrow bandpass interference filters of wavelengths 557.7 nm (green) and 630.0 nm (red). In standard operating mode, the sampling interval is 20 s and 60 s for the red and green images, respectively. The exposure time is typically 1000 ms. The time resolution of keograms is 1 min and they are constructed using only the green images. The size of a digital image is 512x512 pixels and intensity values vary between 0 and 255. At the altitude of 110 km the field-of-view (with reasonable spatial resolution) is a spherical area with the diameter of 600 km. The keograms shown here are intensity versus latitude plots while the original keograms (available in http://www.geo.fmi.fi/MIRACLE are intensity versus zenith angle plots. The conversion from zenith angle dependence to equidistant latitude grid causes occasionally artificial two-band structure to the keograms (light bands below and above the darker zenith). The artefact becomes visible especially during quiet periods, and the autoscaling color palette may even strengthen the effect. Note that some keograms show also the Moon as a sphere or ellipsoid with very high, even saturating intensities.

- FORMOSAT5_AIP_IDN
- Description
IDN>Ion Number Density. Advanced Ionospheric Probe (AIP) is provided by Graduate Institute of Space Science, National Central University (NCU) for the FORMOSAT-5 satellite as a scientific payload. The AIP is an all-in-one plasma sensor with sampling rate up to 8,192 Hz to measure ionospheric plasma concentrations, velocities, and temperatures over a wide range of spatial scales. Once a comprehensive dataset is available from the AIP, a systematic examination of longitudinal and seasonal variations of the ionospheric parameters in the topside F region can be conducted for all latitudinal coverage. The transient and long-term variations of ionospheric plasma can be monitored in the upcoming solar maximum period and are beneficial to predict the trend of the space weather as well as the seismic precursors associated with earthquakes.

- Description
The NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) key parameters are obtained from the Energetic Particle Sensor (EPS) and the magnetometer (MAG). The key parameters are a subset of the data available from the GOES Space Environment Monitor (SEM) instruments. The energetic particle fluxes are given as five-minute averaged values and the vector magnetic field is given as one-minute average values. Flux values for three integral electron channels (E >0.6 MeV, E >2.0 MeV, and E >4.0 MeV) and one differential proton channel(0.7 MeV < E <4 MeV) are provided. These data are used by NOAA Space Environment Center (SEC) for the real-time monitoring and prediction of the conditions in the Earth's space environment. A new series of GOES spacecraft began with GOES-8 launched on 4/13/94, GOES-9 launched on 5/23/95, and GOES-10 launched on 4/25/97. Typically two satellites are maintained operational,one at about 135 degrees geographic west longitude and one at about 75 degrees geographic west longitude. The satellite inclination is typically within a few tenths of a degree of the geographic equator. However, the satellites can be moved, especially during the six months to one year following launch, and the inclination can increase after years of satellite operation. Instrument data quality flags are set from real-time telemetry, or, in the case of historically-processed data sets when telemetry is not available, fixed to a level-1 instrument status flag for all data Reference: Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite GOES I-M System Description, compiled by John Savides, Space Systems/Loral, Palo Alto, California, December 1992.

These channels were used for the correction and processing of the proton and electron data. Beginning April 8, 2003, the GOES energetic particle data are obtained from GOES 10 only.

The NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) key parameters are obtained from the Energetic Particle Sensor (EPS) and and the magnetometer (MAG). The key parameters are a subset of the data available from the GOES Space Environment Monitor (SEM) instruments. The vector magnetic field is given as one-minute averaged values in three coordinate systems: (1) Spacecraft (s/c) P,E,N, (2) GSM x,y,z, (3) GSE x,y,z s/c mag. field is defined as: Hp, perpendicular to the satellite orbital plane or parallel to the Earths spin axis in the case of a zero degree inclination orbit; He, perpendicular to Hp and directed earthwards; and Hn, perpendicular to both Hp and directed eastwards. These data are used by NOAA Space Environment Center (SEC) for the real-time monitoring and prediction of the conditions in the Earth's space environment. A new series of GOES spacecraft began with GOES-8 launched on 4/13/94, GOES-9 launched on 5/23/95, and GOES-10 launched on 4/25/97.

- Description
Satellite positions and velocities derived from SSCWEB GEI ephemeris, interpolated to one minute time resolution; perpendicular vectors for ENP coordinate system derived from pos X vel. B field vectors in LH-ENP and GEI systems, B field total magnitude, magnetotorquer counts, and data quality flags derived from 512 msec binary GOES data files. General Comments from Dr. Howard J. Singer (GOES Magnetometer PI) 1. Data Description: A full description of the GOES magnetometer data, including use of the quality flags and torquer current information, is contained in a GOES 8-12 Magnetometer Readme File prepared by Dr. Howard J. Singer. The GOES data have been prepared at NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) by Dr. Howard J. Singer with major data processing and data evaluation contributions by SWPC staff, Lorne Matheson and Ann Newman, as well as coordinate transformation development by Dr. Paul Loto aniu (University of Colorado/SWPC). 2. Coordinate description for PEN: .Hp: magnetic field vector component, points northward, perpendicular to orbit plane which for a zero degree inclination orbit is parallel to Earth's spin axis. .He: magnetic field vector component, perpendicular to Hp and Hn and points earthward. .Hn: magnetic field vector component, perpendicular to Hp and He and points eastward. Ht: total field. 3. Magnetometer offsets and noise: GOES 8-12 spacecraft are 3-axis stabilized. There is only one opportunity for a spin maneuver at the beginning of the mission to determine on-orbit magnetic field offsets. There are additional complications that result from needing to know the changing offsets introduced by torquer coils on the satellites. While comparisons of GOES data to model fields during quiet times and comparisons to nearby encounters with other spacecraft are used to demonstrate the observed data values are reasonable, caution should be used in assigning absolute accuracy. While there has been a significant effort to remove the effects of torquer coil interference in the 0.512 s data, there can be small, typically less than 1 nT spikes in the data at the time of torquer current changes. More information on this topic is included the more extensive readme file. This file is a living document that will be updated periodically. 4. Orbital Inclination: During the primary operational lifetime of the GOES satellites, the satellite inclination is typically kept within a few tenths of a degree of 0 degrees inclination; however, as the satellite ages, the inclination can grow to several degrees.

- Description
The NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) key parameters are obtained from the Energetic Particle Sensor (EPS) and the magnetometer (MAG). The key parameters are a subset of the data available from the GOES Space Environment Monitor (SEM) instruments. The energetic particle fluxes are given as five-minute averaged values and the vector magnetic field is given as one-minute average values. Flux values for three integral electron channels (E >0.6 MeV, E >2.0 MeV, and E >4.0 MeV) and one differential proton channel(0.7 MeV < E <4 MeV) are provided. These data are used by NOAA Space Environment Center (SEC) for the real-time monitoring and prediction of the conditions in the Earth's space environment. A new series of GOES spacecraft began with GOES-8 launched on 4/13/94 and GOES-9 launched on 5/23/95. Typically two satellites are maintained operational,one at about 135 degrees geographic west longitude and one at about 75 degrees geographic west longitude. The satellite inclination is typically within a few tenths of a degree of the geographic equator. However, the satellites can be moved, especially during the six months to one year following launch, and the inclination can increase after years of satellite operation.

The NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) key parameters are obtained from the Energetic Particle Sensor (EPS) and and the magnetometer (MAG). The key parameters are a subset of the data available from the GOES Space Environment Monitor (SEM) instruments. The vector magnetic field is given as one-minute averaged values in three coordinate systems: (1) Spacecraft (s/c) P,E,N, (2) GSM x,y,z, (3) GSE x,y,z s/c mag. field is defined as: Hp, perpendicular to the satellite orbital plane or parallel to the Earths spin axis in the case of a zero degree inclination orbit; He, perpendicular to Hp and directed earthwards; and Hn, perpendicular to both Hp and directed eastwards. These data are used by NOAA Space Environment Center (SEC) for the real-time monitoring and prediction of the conditions in the Earth's space environment. A new series of GOES spacecraft began with GOES-8 launched on 4/13/94 and GOES-9 launched on 5/23/95.

Version 6 data processing replaced version 5 processing for data after March 10, 2006, when the CPI team started using 64 energy steps per spectrum instead of the previously used 32 steps per spectrum. The change was made to ensure that even for very cold flows, the spectrum would have a sufficient number of significant points to derive moments. The change resulted in 96s spectra and 96s-resolution moments, vs. 48s previously.

- GE_K0_EFD (spase://JAXA/NumericalData/Geotail/EFD/PT64S)
- Description
Geotail Prelaunch Report, April 1992 The sensor providing data here (called EFD-P in report above) measures the difference of electric potential between two electrodes (probes) immersed in the plasma. There are two sperical probes and two wire antennas each of which is extended by 50 meters from the satellite in its rotational plane. The two sperical probes are opposite each other (100 meters tip-to-tip) as are the two wire antennas. The probe pairs are orthogonal to each other. Diving the potential difference by the distance between the probes or the centers of the conducting portion of the wire antennas gives the electric field component along the probe extension. The measurement of the electric field in the satellite rotational plane gives the vector electric field when the electric field along the magnetic field is much smaller than the perpendicular component.

- GOES11_K0_EP8 (spase://NOAA/NumericalData/GOES/11/EPS/PT5M)
- Description
The NOAA Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) key parameters are obtained from the Energetic Particle Sensor (EPS) and the magnetometer (MAG). The key parameters are a subset of the data available from the GOES Space Environment Monitor (SEM) instruments. The energetic particle fluxes are given as five-minute averaged values and the vector magnetic field is given as one-minute average values. Flux values for three integral electron channels (E >0.6 MeV, E >2.0 MeV, and E >4.0 MeV) and one differential proton channel(0.7 MeV < E <4 MeV) are provided. These data are used by NOAA Space Environment Center (SEC) for the real-time monitoring and prediction of the conditions in the Earth's space environment. A new series of GOES spacecraft began with GOES-8 launched on 4/13/94, GOES-9 launched on 5/23/95, GOES-10 launched on 4/25/97, GOES-11 launched on 5/3/2000, and GOES-12 launched on 7/23/2001. Typically two satellites are maintained operational,one at about 135 degrees geographic west longitude and one at about 75 degrees geographic west longitude. The satellite inclination is typically within a few tenths of a degree of the geographic equator. However, the satellites can be moved, especially during the six months to one year following launch, and the inclination can increase after years of satellite operation. Instrument data quality flags are set from real-time telemetry, or, in the case of historically-processed data sets when telemetry is not available, fixed to a level-1 instrument status flag for all data Reference: Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite GOES I-M System Description, compiled by John Savides, Space Systems/Loral, Palo Alto, California, December 1992.

- Description
Data has been recast from original NOAA netCDF files by SPDF. DATA CAVEATS/WARNINGS: The MagED data may not be accurate at times due to instrument limitations such as dead time and proton contamination. Every effort is made to reduce these effects but uncertainties are inevitable. Additionally, the detectors may suffer from intermittent noise problems. Please contact Juan V.

- Description
The IGS global system of satellite tracking stations, Data Centers, and Analysis Centers puts high-quality GPS data and data products on line in near real time to meet the objectives of a wide range of scientific and engineering applications and studies. The IGS collects, archives, and distributes GPS observation data sets of sufficient accuracy to satisfy the objectives of a wide range of applications and experimentation. These data sets are used by the IGS to generate the data products mentioned above which are made available to interested users through the Internet. In particular, the accuracies of IGS products are sufficient for the improvement and extension of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF), the monitoring of solid Earth deformations, the monitoring of Earth rotation and variations in the liquid Earth (sea level, ice-sheets, etc.), for scientific satellite orbit determinations, ionosphere monitoring, and recovery of precipitable water vapor measurements. The primary mission of the International GPS Service, as stated in the organization's 2002-2007 Strategic Plan, is The International GPS Service is committed to providing the highest quality data and products as the standard for global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) in support of Earth science research, multidisciplinary applications, and education. These activities aim to advance scientific understanding of the Earth system components and their interactions, as well as to facilitate other applications benefiting society. The IGS Terms of Reference (comparable to the by-laws of the organization) describes in broad terms the goals and organization of the IGS. To accomplish its mission, the IGS has a number of components: an international network of over 350 continuously operating dual-frequency GPS stations, more than a dozen regional and operational data centers, three global data centers, seven analysis centers and a number of associate or regional analysis centers. The Central Bureau for the service is located at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which maintains the Central Bureau Information System (CBIS) and ensures access to IGS products and information. An international Governing Board oversees all aspects of the IGS. The IGS is an approved service of the International Association of Geodesy since 1994 and is recognized as a member of the Federation of Astronomical and Geophysical Data Analysis Services (FAGS) since 1996. The IGS collects, archives, and distributes GPS observation data sets of sufficient accuracy to meet the objectives of a wide range of scientific and engineering applications and studies. These data sets are used to generate the following products: * GPS satellite ephemerides * GLONASS satellite ephemerides * Earth rotation parameters * IGS tracking station coordinates and velocities * GPS satellite and IGS tracking station clock information * Zenith tropospheric path delay estimates * Global ionospheric maps IGS products support scientific activities such as improving and extending the International Earth Rotation Service (IERS) Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF), monitoring deformations of the solid Earth and variations in the liquid Earth (sea level, ice sheets, etc.), and in Earth rotation, determining orbits of scientific satellites and monitoring the ionosphere. For example, geodynamics investigators who use GPS in local regions can include data from one or more nearby IGS stations, fix the site coordinates from such stations to their ITRF values, and more importantly, use the precise IGS orbits without further refinement. Data from an investigator's local network can then be analyzed with maximum accuracy and minimum computational burden. Furthermore, the results will be in a well-defined global reference frame. An additional aspect of IGS products is for the densification of the ITRF at a more regional level. This is accomplished through the rigorous combination of regional or local network solutions utilizing the Solution Independent Exchange Format (SINEX) and a process defined in the densification section. In the future, the IGS infrastructure could become a valuable asset for support of new ground-based applications -- and could also contribute to space-based missions in which highly accurate flight and ground differential techniques are required.

- HELIOS1_40SEC_MAG-PLASMA (spase://NASA/NumericalData/Helios1/E1/PT40.5S)
- Description
General information about initial ascii files: This subdirectory contains daily files of 40.5 sec Helios magnetic field and plasma data described below. It also contains a file of software written by Aaron Roberts, readhelios40s_dat.pro, for creating alfvenicity graphs. The Helios mission consisted of two spacecraft launched into the inner heliosphere, both executing orbits from 0.3 to 1 AU with roughly a six month orbital period. Magnetic field data were recorded at high resolution, with plasma data recorded at approximately 40.5 s resolution. These datasets give the highest resolution plasma (proton and helium) moments with the corresponding average magnetic field for each plasma measurement. There are results from two plasma sensors, one of which gives the vector velocity. The coverage is best in the early years and varies considerably for the rest of the mission. The files Helios1_stats and Helios2_stats give the year, day of year, number of points, and percentage of possible points for the days included in the sets. There is no coverage for many days, with the main reason being that the spacecraft pass behind the Sun with respect to the Earth, thus cutting off communication. The overall intervals covered are: Helios 1: 1974 day 346 to 1985 day 247 Helios 2: 1976 day 017 to 1980 day 068 The present set of files were produced by R. Schwenn and obtained from J. Luhmann. They have been reformatted by Aaron Roberts to assure spaces between the variables, and in the process the HGI longitude and the RTN versions of the variables were added for convenience. Also, spacecraft positions were interpolated to make them distinct. The fill value for missing data in the original files was either -1 or 0; all these have been changed to 0. The other entries are directly from the original files. R. Schwenn should be acknowledged for plasma data and F. Neubauer for magnetic field data. GSFC/SPDF nssdcftp (or successor) should be acknowledged as the immediate source of the data. * The RTN components were calculated from the SSE XYZ components using R -> -X, T -> -Y, and N -> Z. The Cartesian coordinates for B and the angles for V are the original variables in the file, and no correction was made in the conversion to RTN for the actual spacecraft position. Since RTN and SSE are defined relative to the helioequatorial plane and to the ecliptic plane, respectively, and since these planes are inclined by 7.25 degrees relative to each other (heliocentric orbits of Earth, Helios 1 and Helios 2 are virtually co-planar), this introduces errors of up to 100% * (1 - cos 7.25) = 1% in the RTN components. However, the V and B are consistent with each other and can be compared directly. (text by Aaron Roberts, with edits by Joe King; October, 2008)

- Description
The HELIOS-1 spacecraft was one of the pair of deep space probes developed by the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) in a cooperative program with NASA. The purpose of the mission was to make pioneering measurements of the interplanetary medium from the vicinity of the Earth's orbit to 0.3 AU. (The planet Mercury is at 0.4 AU.) Data coverage for selected parameters for this data set is: interplanetary magnetic field (1974-12-14 - 1981-06-14), solar wind plasma (1974-12-12 - 1980-12-31), and spacecraft trajectory coordinates (1974-12-10 - 1981-06-14). Magnetic field data were provided by Prof. F. Mariani, Istituto di Fisica G. Marconi, Rome, Italy; Plasma data - by Dr. R. Schwenn, Max-Planck-Institut fur Aeronomie, Lindau, Germany. Time Coverage of merged files: December 10, 1974 - June 14, 1981. Helios-1 data have been reprocessed to ensure a uniformity of content and coordinate systems relative to data from other deep-space missions: All spacecraft trajectory data were transformed to a Heliographic Inertial (HGI) coordinate system. Magnetic field components were transformed to RTN system. Trajectory data, interplanetary magnetic field data, and plasma data were merged into individual hourly records. Data gaps were filled with dummy numbers for the missing hours or entire days to make all files of equal length. The character Ə' is used to fill all fields for missing data according to their format, e.g. ' 9999.9' for a field with the FORTRAN format F7.1. Note that format F7.1 below really means (1X,F6.1),etc.

- Description
HELIOS-A and -B spacecrafts were the pair of deep space probes developed by the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) in a cooperative program with NASA. The purpose of the mission was to make pioneering measurments of the interplanetary medium from the vicinity of the earth"s orbit to 0.3 AU. The objective of experiment (E6) was to study high-energy, charged, cosmic-ray particles of solar, planetary, and galactic origin in interplanetary space. Protons and alpha particles with eneries >1.3 MeV/nucleon, and electrons >0.3 MeV were measured within interplanetary space over the range from 0.3 to 1.0 AU. The instrument, a particle telescope with 55-deg field of view, consisted of five semiconductor detectors, one sapphire Cherenkov counter, and one scintillation counter, all enclosed by an anticoincidence cylinder. The telescope was calibrated prior to launch using radioactive sources, particle acceletors, and ground-level muons. It measured protons and alpha particles in six channels (1.3-3.3, 3.3-13, 13-27, 27-37, 37-45, and >45 MeV/nucleon) and electrons in five energy channels (0.3-0.8, 0.8-2, 2-3, 3-4, and >4 MeV). For more detail see pp.253-257 of Raumfahrtforschung, v.19, n. 5, 1975. The h-a-cr*.dat and h-b-cr*.dat files contains hourly averaged fluxes of electrons, protons and alpha particles in the MeV ranges. The files were written in ASCII-codes. Each record contains 10 hourly averages. The differential fluxes (particles/sq.m, s, sr, MeV) cover, in several bands, the energy range 0.3-2.0 MeV for electrons, 4.0-51 MeV for protons, and 2.0-48 MeV for alpha particles. Also provided are the integral fluxes of alphas above 48 MeV, and protons above 51 MeV. For some of the energy channels, the standard deviations of the averages are also provided. Each file is preceded by a header record, providing the start and stop times of the data in the file. The acronyms for the rate channels are composed of a letter and an indication of the energy range in MeV/nucleon for protons and alpha particles respectively. MeV for electrons. The counting rates are given as particles/m^2 sec sr MeV/N, except for the integral channels P>51 and A>48 which are given as particles/ m^2 sec sr. Note: 1. Negative rates (-0.99999E+04) indicate missing or invalid data. 2. The energy boundaries for the electron channels E 0.2-0.8 and E 0.8-2are only rough estimates.

- HELIOS2_40SEC_MAG-PLASMA (spase://NASA/NumericalData/Helios2/E3/PT40.5S)
- Description
General information about initial ascii files: This subdirectory contains daily files of 40.5 sec Helios magnetic field and plasma data described below. It also contains a file of software written by Aaron Roberts, readhelios40s_dat.pro, for creating alfvenicity graphs. The Helios mission consisted of two spacecraft launched into the inner heliosphere, both executing orbits from 0.3 to 1 AU with roughly a six month orbital period. Magnetic field data were recorded at high resolution, with plasma data recorded at approximately 40.5 s resolution. These datasets give the highest resolution plasma (proton and helium) moments with the corresponding average magnetic field for each plasma measurement. There are results from two plasma sensors, one of which gives the vector velocity. The coverage is best in the early years and varies considerably for the rest of the mission. The files Helios1_stats and Helios2_stats give the year, day of year, number of points, and percentage of possible points for the days included in the sets. There is no coverage for many days, with the main reason being that the spacecraft pass behind the Sun with respect to the Earth, thus cutting off communication. The overall intervals covered are: Helios 1: 1974 day 346 to 1985 day 247 Helios 2: 1976 day 017 to 1980 day 068 The present set of files were produced by R. Schwenn and obtained from J. Luhmann. They have been reformatted by Aaron Roberts to assure spaces between the variables, and in the process the HGI longitude and the RTN versions of the variables were added for convenience. Also, spacecraft positions were interpolated to make them distinct. The fill value for missing data in the original files was either -1 or 0; all these have been changed to 0. The other entries are directly from the original files. R. Schwenn should be acknowledged for plasma data and F. Neubauer for magnetic field data. GSFC/SPDF nssdcftp (or successor) should be acknowledged as the immediate source of the data. * The RTN components were calculated from the SSE XYZ components using R -> -X, T -> -Y, and N -> Z. The Cartesian coordinates for B and the angles for V are the original variables in the file, and no correction was made in the conversion to RTN for the actual spacecraft position. Since RTN and SSE are defined relative to the helioequatorial plane and to the ecliptic plane, respectively, and since these planes are inclined by 7.25 degrees relative to each other (heliocentric orbits of Earth, Helios 1 and Helios 2 are virtually co-planar), this introduces errors of up to 100% * (1 - cos 7.25) = 1% in the RTN components. However, the V and B are consistent with each other and can be compared directly. (text by Aaron Roberts, with edits by Joe King; October, 2008)

BUILD_DATE: 1974-01-01 INSTRUMENT_MASS: 0.23 (LESS BOOMS) kg INSTRUMENT_HEIGHT: 0.058 mt INSTRUMENT_LENGTH: 0.140 mt INSTRUMENT_WIDTH: 0.140 mt INSTRUMENT_MANUFACTURER_NAME: UNIV IOWA INSTRUMENT_SERIAL_NUMBER: VLF-05 Electric Antenna The electric antenna on HAWKEYE consisted of two extendible beryllium copper elements 0.025 inch in diameter which could be extended to a maximum tip-to-tip length of 42.7 m. Except for the outermost 6.1 m of each element, which had a conducting surface, the antenna was coated with Pyre-ML to electrically insulate the antenna from the surrounding plasma. The insulating coating was required to insulate the antenna from the perturbing effects of the plasma sheath surrounding the spacecraft body. At high altitudes, the thickness of the plasma sheath surrounding the spacecraft body was quit large, on the order of 9 m. Since the conducting portion of the antenna must extend beyond the plasma sheath, it was necessary that the antenna be rather long, at least 30 m. tip-to-tip. The antenna mechanism used on HAWKEYE was the Dual-Tee extendible antenna manufactured by Fairchild Industries. The antenna length was 42.49 meters after final deployment until the last orbit, when an attempt was made to retract the antenna to reduce the spacecraft drag. Magnetic Antenna The magnetic antenna for this experiment consisted of a search coil with a high permeability core mounted on a boom approximately 1.5 m. from the centerline of the spacecraft body. The boom was a three element telescoping device developed at the University of Iowa. The boom supporting the flux gate magnetometer on the opposite side of the spacecraft was the same type. Both booms were extended simultaneously by an electric motor. The search coil core was .305 m. long and was wound with approximately 20,000 turns of copper wire. The axis of the search coil was parallel to the spin axis of the spacecraft. A preamplifier was located with the sensor to provide low-impedance signals to the main electronics package in the spacecraft body. The frequency range of the search coil antenna was from 1.0 Hz to 10.0 kHz. Electronics The potential difference between the electric antenna elements was amplified by a high input impedance differential amplifier to provide a 0 to 5 volt analog voltage, V-Diff, to the spacecraft encoder. As the spacecraft rotated the potential difference between the antenna elements varied sinusoidally at the spacecraft rotation rate, with an amplitude proportional to the electric field strength and a phase determined by the direction of the electric field. The frequency response of the differential amplifier was 0.05 Hz to 10 Hz and included the entire range of spin rates expected as the antenna was deployed. The V-Diff signal was sampled 6 times each frame by the encoder. The gain of the differential amplifier could be controlled by command to provide dynamic ranges of +/-0.5 and +/-8.0 volts for the antenna potential difference measurements. Signals from the electric antenna in the frequency range from 10 kHz to 200 kHz were analyzed by the narrow band step frequency receiver. The primary purpose of this receiver was to provide very good frequency resolution in the neighborhood of the electron plasma frequency and upper hybrid resonance frequency. The step frequency receiver consisted of 8 narrow band filters (+/-5% band-width) which were sequentially switched into a log compressor. The log compressor provided a 0 to 5 volt analog voltage, SFR, to the spacecraft encoder. The switch (S4) position was controlled by clock lines from the spacecraft encoder and was stepped through 8 frequencies, 13.3, 17.8, 23.7, 31.1, 42.2, 56.2, 100, and 178 kHz, at a rate of four frequencies per telemetry frame (5.76 seconds). The log compressor provided a 0 to 5 volt analog voltage, SFR, to the spacecraft encoder which was proportional to the logarithm of the signal strength over a dynamic range of 100 db. The 8-channel spectrum analyzer provided relatively coarse frequency spectrum measurements of both electric and magnetic fields over a broad frequency range of 1.0 Hz to 10.0 kHz. The primary purpose of the 8-channel spectrum analyzer was to provide field strength measurements to complement the high-resolution frequency-time spectra from the wide-band receiver. Switches S1 and S2 were controlled by clock lines from the spacecraft encoder and commutate the filter outputs to two log compressors which provided field strength measurements SA-1 and SA-2 (0 to 5 volts) to the spacecraft encoder. These outputs were sampled twice per telemetry frame. Switch S3, which was controlled by a clock line, commutates the electric and magnetic field signals to the 8-channel spectrum analyzer. Approximately every 5 minutes the impedance of the electric antenna was determined at a frequency of 17 Hz by driving a small AC current into the antennas and measuring the resultant voltage on the antennas with the 8-channel spectrum analyzer. The 17 Hz oscillator was gated on for 1 frame out of every 64 frames by a clock line. Immediately following the impedance measurement the pulser circuit produced a 10 volt pulse with a duration of 20 micro- seconds. This pulse was to stimulate local plasma resonances, such as plasma oscillation, from which the electron density could be determined. A pulse of +10 volts was applied to one antenna element and a -10 volt pulse was applied to the opposite antenna element. The pulser was switched on by command. The pulser was on when the experiment was in VLF45 mode and off when the experiment was in the VLF10 mode. The pulser voltage was coupled to the antenna through a 220 pf capacitor which would have allowed some meaningful data to be obtained from the experiment even if the pulser output were to short to ground. The pulse was applied at the end of the impedance measurement frame. The potential difference between the electric antenna elements was amplified by a high input impedance differential amplifier to provide a 0 to 5 volt analog voltage, V-Diff, to the spacecraft encoder. As the spacecraft rotated the potential difference between the antenna elements varied sinusoidally at the spacecraft rotation rate, with an amplitude proportional to the electric field strength and a phase determined by the direction of the electric field.

- I1_NEPROF_TOPS (spase://NASA/NumericalData/ISIS1/SFS/TOPS)
- Description
This data set, provided by the Communications Research Centre (CRC) in Ottawa, Canada, consists of electron density profiles for the ionosphere above the F2 maximum (topside ionosphere). The data were computed from the orginal ionograms using Jackson's method (Jackson, Proceedings of the IEEE., p. 960, June 1969). ISIS-1 was launched on 1969-01-30 into an elliptical orbit (500-3500km) with an inclination of 88.4 degrees and ISIS-2 was launched on 1971-04-01 into an circular orbit at 1400 km with an inclination of 88.1 degrees. Both satellites were fully instrumented ionospheric observatories including sweep- and fixed-frequequency ionosondes, a VLF receiver, energetic and soft particle detectors, an ion mass spectrometer, an electrostatic analyzer, an Langmuir probe, a beacon transmitter, a cosmic noise experiment and ISIS 2 also carried two photometers. A tape recorder with 1-h capacity was included on both satellites. Data were also collected during overflights of several telemetry stations. The telemetry stations were in areas that provided primary data coverage near the 80-deg-W meridian and in areas near Hawaii, Singapore, Australia, the UK, Norway, India, Japan, Antarctica, New Zealand, and Central Africa.

- Description
A 7-track ISIS 2 analog telemetry tape from Ottawa (#561) has been digitized using the GSFC facilities of the Data Evaluation Laboratory (DEL) within the Mission Operations and Data Systems Directorate (Code 500) at Goddard. The digitization was performed using an A/D converter board and software device driver compatible with the OS/2 operating system used by the 486-based Programmable Telemetry Processor (PTP) associated software has been installed on their PTP and de-bugged so that we now have a working system for making digital ISIS ionograms directly from the telemetry tapes. Earlier, we successfully digitized the PCM and NASA 36 bit time-code data from this same tape. The ionograms were digitized at the rate of 40,000 16-bit samples/sec. This sample rate is higher than the Nyquist frequency of 30 kHz appropriate for the post-detection ISIS 2 sounder-receiver video output which extends from DC to 15 kHz (see p. 50 of the 1971 ISIS 2 report by Daniels). The sample frequency of 40 kHz provides a measurement every 25 microseconds corresponding to an apparent range (ct/2) interval of 3.747 km. With the ISIS 2 prf of 45 sounder pulses/s, there are (1/45)/(2.5**(-5)) = 888.89 samples between each of the approximately 1015 sounder pulses per ionogram (including the fixed-frequency portion) or nearly 10**6 16-bit samples/ionogram (approximately 1.8 MBytes) for just the sounder-receiver video data. Adding header information, and the pcm data containing data from the other instruments, yields about 2 MBytes of data for the 22.5 s period corresponding to one ionogram. Two steps were taken in order to reduce this large volume of nearly 2 MBytes/ionogram. First, every four 25 microsecond samples following the sounder pulse were averaged. Second, the 16 bit samples were reduced to 8 bit samples. The first step decreased the apparent-range resolution to 15 km, but yielded high-quality ionograms because of the improved S/N due to the averaging.

Earlier, we successfully digitized the PCM and NASA 36 bit time-code data from this same tape. The ionograms were digitized at the rate of 40,000 16-bit samples/sec. This sample rate is higher than the Nyquist frequency of 30 kHz appropriate for the post-detection ISIS 2 sounder-receiver video output which extends from DC to 15 kHz (see p. 50 of the 1971 ISIS 2 report by Daniels). The sample frequency of 40 kHz provides a measurement every 25 microseconds corresponding to an apparent range (ct/2) interval of 3.747 km. With the ISIS 2 prf of 45 sounder pulses/s, there are (1/45)/(2.5**(-5)) = 888.89 samples between each of the approximately 1015 sounder pulses per ionogram (including the fixed-frequency portion) or nearly 10**6 16-bit samples/ionogram (approximately 1.8 MBytes) for just the sounder-receiver video data. Adding header information, and the pcm data containing data from the other instruments, yields about 2 MBytes of data for the 22.5 s period corresponding to one ionogram. Two steps were taken in order to reduce this large volume of nearly 2 MBytes/ionogram. First, every four 25 microsecond samples following the sounder pulse were averaged. Second, the 16 bit samples were reduced to 8 bit samples. The first step decreased the apparent-range resolution to 15 km, but yielded high-quality ionograms because of the improved S/N due to the averaging.

- I2_AV_WNK (spase://NASA/NumericalData/ISIS2/SFS/AverageIonogram/Winkfield/PT22S)
- Description
This ionogram was digitized from the original ISIS 2 analog telemetry data on 7-track tape using the facilities of the Data Evaluation Laboratory at GSFC (Code 500). This data restoration project is headed by Dr. R.F. Benson (GSFC, Code 692). Ionograms were digitized at the rate of 40,000 16-bit samples/sec. This sample rate is higher than the Nyquist frequency of 30 kHz. The sample frequency of 40 kHz provides a measurement every 25 microseconds corresponding to an apparent range (c*t/2) interval of 3.747 km. Each ionogram consists of a fixed-frequency and and a swept-frequency portion. The time resolution is typically 24 seconds. More information can be found at https://nssdc/space/isis/isis-status.html

- I2_NEPROF_TOPIST (spase://NASA/NumericalData/ISIS2/SFS/TOPIST)
- Description
ISIS 2 was an ionospheric observatory instrumented with a sweep- and a fixed-frequency ionosonde, a VLF receiver, energetic and soft particle detectors, an ion mass spectrometer, an electrostatic probe, a retarding potential analyzer, a beacon transmitter, a cosmic noise experiment, and two photometers. Two long crossed-dipole antennas (73 and 18.7 m) were used for the sounding, VLF, and cosmic noise experiments. The spacecraft was spin-stabilized to about 2 rpm after antenna deployment. There were two basic orientation modes for the spacecraft, cartwheel and orbit-aligned. The spacecraft operated approximately the same length of time in each mode, remaining in one mode typically 3 to 5 months. The cartwheel mode with the axis perpendicular to the orbit plane was made available to provide ram and wake data for some experiments for each spin period, rather than for each orbit period. Attitude and spin information was obtained from a three-axis magnetometer and a sun sensor. Control of attitude and spin was possible by means of magnetic torquing. The experiment package also included a programmable tape recorder with a one hour capacity. For non-recorded observations, data from satellite and subsatellite regions were telemetered when the spacecraft was in the line of sight of a telemetry station. Telemetry stations were located so that primary data coverage was near the 80-deg-W meridian and near Hawaii, Singapore, Australia, England, France, Norway, India, Japan, Antarctica, New Zealand, and Central Africa. NASA support of the ISIS project was terminated on October 1, 1979. A significant amount of experimental data, however, was acquired after this date by the Canadian project team. ISIS 2 operations were terminated in Canada on March 9, 1984. The Radio Research Laboratories (Tokyo, Japan) then requested and received permission to reactivate ISIS 2. Regular ISIS 2 operations were started from Kashima, Japan, in early August 1984. ISIS 2 was deactivated effective 24, 1990. A data restoration effort began in the late 1990s and successfully saved a considerable portion of the high-resolution data before the telemetry tapes were discarted. The data set was generated from the averaged ionogram binary data (SPIO-00318) recorded by the Topside Sounder. The data are obtained with the TOPIST program, which analyzes the data, automatically scales the ionogram traces and resonances, and inverts the traces into an electron density profile. The same program is available for use to hand-scale the data if desired. Output data items include spacecraft position, electron density profile, assessment of quality, resonance and cut-off frequencies, and both the O-trace and X-trace.

- I2_NEPROF_TOPS (spase://NASA/NumericalData/ISIS2/SFS/TOPS)
- Description
This data set, provided by the Communications Research Centre (CRC) in Ottawa, Canada, consists of electron density profiles for the ionosphere above the F2 maximum (topside ionosphere). The data were computed from the orginal ionograms using Jackson's method (Jackson, Proceedings of the IEEE., p. 960, June 1969). ISIS-1 was launched on 1969-01-30 into an elliptical orbit (500-3500km) with an inclination of 88.4 degrees and ISIS-2 was launched on 1971-04-01 into an circular orbit at 1400 km with an inclination of 88.1 degrees. Both satellites were fully instrumented ionospheric observatories including sweep- and fixed-frequequency ionosondes, a VLF receiver, energetic and soft particle detectors, an ion mass spectrometer, an electrostatic analyzer, an Langmuir probe, a beacon transmitter, a cosmic noise experiment and ISIS 2 also carried two photometers. A tape recorder with 1-h capacity was included on both satellites. Data were also collected during overflights of several telemetry stations. The telemetry stations were in areas that provided primary data coverage near the 80-deg-W meridian and in areas near Hawaii, Singapore, Australia, the UK, Norway, India, Japan, Antarctica, New Zealand, and Central Africa.

- IBEX_H3_ENA_HI_R02_CG_NOSP_OMNI_6MO doi:10.48322/rcw2-kh18
- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 17 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2020. 2: This data set is from the Release 2 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the year 2009 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 2 map numbers (1-2) with mission year 1 Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as mapN for N=1-2, which indicates a map number, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), CG, no SP, 6 month cadence.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 17 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2020. 2: This data set is from the Release 2 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the year 2009 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 2 map numbers (1-2) with mission year 1 Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as mapN for N=1-2, which indicates a map number, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), no CG, no SP, 6 month cadence.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_yearN_cg for N 1 - 3, includes pixel map data from antiram direction (antiram-directional), CG, no SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
Currently, the Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_cg_mapX for N=1-6, in which N indicates a map number, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), CG, no SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The latest Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
Currently, the Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The newest Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The latest Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4, 7.5 day-cadence IBEX-Hi data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of Survival Probabilities tables. Each data directory related to survival probability has information about a different aspect of the transport through the heliosphere: a) deflection - angular deflection experienced between the termination shock and the observer. b) eloss - energy loss (or gain) between the termination shock and the observer. c) survpro - survival probability that an ENA passing through the termination shock will make it to 1AU. 3. For this release, the survival probabilities are only applied to the IBEX-HI data stream. Note that the energy loss is negligible, and the deflection angles in the inertial system are always smaller than 0.6 degrees or so. 4. Each directory has contains correction factors for data in the spacecraft frame (scf) and the inertial frame (1AU). The inertial frame (1AU) survival probabilities are used for the CG corrected data. The spacecraft frame factors are used for uncorrected data. The spacecraft frame files have the energy/direction shifts caused by the Earth/Spacecraft motion. This has a small effect on the survival probabilities (simply due to the energy shifts), but the deflection angles and energy shifts caused by this motion can be significant. 5. The deflection and energy shift files are not applied by the IBEX pipeline software. In theory, these could be applied to the CG corrected data after the fact. However, it is important to note that the spacecraft frame correction factors for energy and angle contain elements of the CG correction and 6. can yield confusing results when applied to the pipeline results. The data layout per frame consists of the following. For the spacecraft frame, there is a column for each ESA step, and a row for each angle bin (1 degree bins). Each number gives the probability at that angle and ESA for survival. The probability per angle is interpolated to the center of any particular angular bin being evaluated. In the inertial frame, the columns are the energies rather than ESA steps. 7. These are applied to the IBEX images that are given on the variable energy grid. For each image pixel, we take the energy and angle and use a 2D interpolation to get the survival probability. 8. The data consist of Survival Probabilities tables. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 9: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 10: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as Data_Release_4\hs_transport\surv\o0NNNx.defl1au , where NNN=006-150 is an orbit number, and x = a or b for the orbit 130 or higher, indicates the first or the second half of the orbit, Survival Probabilities tables

This has a small effect on the survival probabilities (simply due to the energy shifts), but the deflection angles and energy shifts caused by this motion can be significant. 5. The deflection and energy shift files are not applied by the IBEX pipeline software. In theory, these could be applied to the CG corrected data after the fact. However, it is important to note that the spacecraft frame correction factors for energy and angle contain elements of the CG correction and 6. can yield confusing results when applied to the pipeline results. The data layout per frame consists of the following. For the spacecraft frame, there is a column for each ESA step, and a row for each angle bin (1 degree bins). Each number gives the probability at that angle and ESA for survival. The probability per angle is interpolated to the center of any particular angular bin being evaluated. In the inertial frame, the columns are the energies rather than ESA steps. 7. These are applied to the IBEX images that are given on the variable energy grid. For each image pixel, we take the energy and angle and use a 2D interpolation to get the survival probability. 8. The data consist of Survival Probabilities tables. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 9: McComas, D. J., et al.

The latest Release 16 data extends through Map 22 and contains modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4, 7.5 day-cadence IBEX-Hi data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of Survival Probabilities tables. Each data directory related to survival probability has information about a different aspect of the transport through the heliosphere: a) deflection - angular deflection experienced between the termination shock and the observer. b) eloss - energy loss (or gain) between the termination shock and the observer. c) survpro - survival probability that an ENA passing through the termination shock will make it to 1AU. 3. For this release, the survival probabilities are only applied to the IBEX-HI data stream. Note that the energy loss is negligible, and the deflection angles in the inertial system are always smaller than 0.6 degrees or so. 4.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_yearN for N = 1 - 3, includes pixel map data from antiram direction (antiram-directional), no CG, no SP, 1 year cadence.

Currently, the Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2011. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 three-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2011, in the form of omni-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: Compton-Getting) and with no corrections (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 4 map numbers (1-6) with mission year (1-3) each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as comb-year123, includes pixel map data from omni direction, noCG, noSP, 3 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 4 data extend through Map 6 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6.

The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2011. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 three-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2011, in the form of omni-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: Compton-Getting) and with no corrections (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.) 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 4 map numbers (1-6) with mission year (1-3) each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as comb-map1to6, includes pixel map data from omni direction, noCG, noSP, 6 maps or 3 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 4 data extend through Map 6 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_ram_N for N = 1 - 3, includes pixel map data from ram direction (ram-directional), no CG, no SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and withcorrection for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_yearN for N = 1 - 3, includes pixel map data from antiram direction (antiram-directional), no CG, SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 4 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 6 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and withcorrection for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The latest Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 4, 7.5 day-cadence IBEX-Hi data for the years 2009-2012 in the form of Survival Probabilities tables. Each data directory related to survival probability has information about a different aspect of the transport through the heliosphere: a) deflection - angular deflection experienced between the termination shock and the observer. b) eloss - energy loss (or gain) between the termination shock and the observer. c) survpro - survival probability that an ENA passing through the termination shock will make it to 1AU. 3. For this release, the survival probabilities are only applied to the IBEX-HI data stream. Note that the energy loss is negligible, and the deflection angles in the inertial system are always smaller than 0.6 degrees or so. 4. Each directory has contains correction factors for data in the spacecraft frame (scf) and the inertial frame (1AU). The inertial frame (1AU) survival probabilities are used for the CG corrected data. The spacecraft frame factors are used for uncorrected data. The spacecraft frame files have the energy/direction shifts caused by the Earth/Spacecraft motion. This has a small effect on the survival probabilities (simply due to the energy shifts), but the deflection angles and energy shifts caused by this motion can be significant. 5. The deflection and energy shift files are not applied by the IBEX pipeline software. In theory, these could be applied to the CG corrected data after the fact. However, it is important to note that the spacecraft frame correction factors for energy and angle contain elements of the CG correction and 6. can yield confusing results when applied to the pipeline results. The data layout per frame consists of the following. For the spacecraft frame, there is a column for each ESA step, and a row for each angle bin (1 degree bins). Each number gives the probability at that angle and ESA for survival. The probability per angle is interpolated to the center of any particular angular bin being evaluated. In the inertial frame, the columns are the energies rather than ESA steps. 7. These are applied to the IBEX images that are given on the variable energy grid. For each image pixel, we take the energy and angle and use a 2D interpolation to get the survival probability. 8. The data consist of Survival Probabilities tables. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 9: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 10: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as Data_Release_4\hs_transport\surv\o0NNNx.survscf , where NNN=006-150 is an orbit number, and x = a or b for the orbit 130 or higher, indicates the first or the second half of the orbit, Survival Probabilities tables

The deflection and energy shift files are not applied by the IBEX pipeline software. In theory, these could be applied to the CG corrected data after the fact. However, it is important to note that the spacecraft frame correction factors for energy and angle contain elements of the CG correction and 6. can yield confusing results when applied to the pipeline results. The data layout per frame consists of the following. For the spacecraft frame, there is a column for each ESA step, and a row for each angle bin (1 degree bins). Each number gives the probability at that angle and ESA for survival. The probability per angle is interpolated to the center of any particular angular bin being evaluated. In the inertial frame, the columns are the energies rather than ESA steps. 7. These are applied to the IBEX images that are given on the variable energy grid. For each image pixel, we take the energy and angle and use a 2D interpolation to get the survival probability. 8. The data consist of Survival Probabilities tables. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 9: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 10: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as Data_Release_4\hs_transport\surv\o0NNNx.survscf , where NNN=006-150 is an orbit number, and x = a or b for the orbit 130 or higher, indicates the first or the second half of the orbit, Survival Probabilities tables
- Modification History
The latest Release 16 data extends through Map 22 and contains modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Mono Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude.

During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-10-map-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Mono Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2013 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Mono Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2013 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability in Mono Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SCF Frame 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_cg_year_1to5combinedMonoInertialFrame are pixel map data antiram-directional in Mono Inertial Frame, CG, SP, 5 year cadence.

The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_cg_tabular_mapX, where X = 1-10 are pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), CG, SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-10-map-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability in Mono Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2013 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_ram_cg_yearN for N=1,5, includes pixel map data from ram direction (ram-directional), CG, SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability in Mono Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2013 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_yearN for N=1,5, includes pixel map data from antiram direction (antiram-directional), no CG, no SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy SC Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_mapX, where X = 1-10 are pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), no CG, no SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-10-map-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with noCompton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy SC Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2013 in the form of ram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_ram_yearN for N=1,5, includes pixel map data from ram direction (ram-directional), no CG, no SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy Inertial Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy SC Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_mapX, where X = 1-10 are pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), no CG, SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-10-map-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with noCompton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy SC Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mif = Mono Inertial Frame veif = Var Energy Inertial Frame vescf = Var Energy SC Frame 7.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Map 10 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 7 (1-to-5-year-average) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability in Var Energy SC Frame between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Modification History
The Release 7 data extend through Maps 1-10. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 8 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 (5 year-cadence) in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

The latest Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 8 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 (5 year-cadence) in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the f2-ribbonMapsJ2000 includes f2 ribbon pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), 5 year cadence.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 8 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2014 (5 year-cadence) in the form of omnidirectional GDF (Globally Distributed Flux) ENA (hydrogen) fluxes between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. gdf = Globally Distributed Flux. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the f3-gdfJ2000 includes f3 GDF (Globally Distributed Flux) pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), 5 year cadence.
- Modification History
The latest Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) but with no corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_cg_ single, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, noSP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, with multiple versions of data sets including no corrections, full corrections for spacecraft motion, and corrections for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3: The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar West Ecliptic angles of ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. 7: nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections 8: sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. 9: noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. 10: omni = data from all directions. 11: ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. 12: antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 13: The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015). 14: Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 15: Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 16: Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 17: Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 18: Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 19: Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 20: Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 21: Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 22: Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 23: Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 24: Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 25: Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 26: Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 27: Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 28: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_cg_mapN for N=1,14, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), CG, no SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of omni-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) but with no corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_cg_ single, includes pixel map data from omni direction, CG, noSP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_ram_cg_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixel map data from RAM direction (ram-direction), CG, noSP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of ram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) but with no corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_ram_cg_ single, includes pixel map data from ram direction, CG, noSP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 (1-year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of anti-RAM-directional fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) and with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_cg_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixel map data from antiRAM direction (antiRAMdirectional), CG, SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) and with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_cg_single, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG,SP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of omnidirectional fluxes with corrections (cg) for spacecraft motion (Compton-Getting) and corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015): Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_cg_tabular_mapN for N=1,14, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), CG, SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 (1-year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of RAM-directional fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) and with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_ram_cg_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixel map data from RAM direction (RAMdirectional), CG, SP, 1 year cadence.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of ram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) and with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_ram_cg_single, includes pixel map data from ram direction, CG,SP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 one-year IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: no Compton-Getting) and with no corrections (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, noSP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: Compton-Getting) and with no corrections (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_single, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, noCG, noSP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015): Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_mapN for N=1,14, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), no CG, no SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of omni-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: Compton-Getting) and with no corrections (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_single, includes pixel map data from omni direction, noCG, noSP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 one-year IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of ram-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: no Compton-Getting) and with no corrections (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_ram_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, noSP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 one-year IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: no Compton-Getting) and with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_noSP_antiram_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixelmap data from anti ramdirection, noCG, SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: Compton-Getting) but with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_single, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, noCG, SP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. 7: nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections 8: sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. 9: noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. 10: omni = data from all directions. 11: ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. 12: antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 13: The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015). 14: Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 15: Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 16: Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 17: Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 18: Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 19: Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 20: Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 21: Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 22: Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 23: Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 24: Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 25: Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 26: Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 27: Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 28: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_mapN for N=1,14, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), no CG, SP, 6 month cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 seven-year IBEX-Hi map data for 2009-2015, in the form of omni-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: Compton-Getting) but with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_single, includes pixel map data from omni direction, noCG, noSP, 7 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2017. 2: This data set is from the Release 10 one-year IBEX-Hi map data for the first seven years, 2009-2015, in the form of ram-direction fluxes with no corrections for spacecraft motion (nocg: no Compton-Getting) and with corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 10 map numbers (1-14) with mission year (1-7), orbits (11-310b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/23/2015); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_noSP_ram_yearN for N=1,7, includes pixelmap data from ramdirection, noCG, SP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 10 data extend through Map 14 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2018. 2: This data set is from the IBEX-Hi Release 12 Count Data for Magnetospheric Imaging. This release provides data for various IBEX orbits from 23 (2009-03-26) to 207b (2013-05-30). The data include 21 orbits from IBEX-Hi 6-degree histogram ENA count data, which is primarily what have been used in IBEX magnetospheric studies. 3. The data consist of IBEX-Hi Count Data for Magnetospheric Imaging during instrument pointing in spin angle 0 - 360 degrees between the north and south Ecliptic poles. Spin angle zero corresponds to the north Ecliptic pole. Counts come from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form corresponding to energy bins 2-6: 2) ~0.71, 3) ~1.11, 4) ~1.74, 5) ~2.73, 6) ~4.3 keV. Background counts have not been removed. Counts are separated into 6-degree latitudinal bins, with each # angle label representing the center of the bin. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 12 are given in the following journal publications: McComas et al. 2011,2012b; Fuselier et al. 2010, 2015; Petrinec et al. 2011; Ogasawara et al. 2013, 2019; and Dayeh et al. 2015Data Location: http://ibex.swri.edu/ibexpublicdata/Data_Release_12/index.htmlContact: Maher Dayeh, Southwest Research Institute, San Antonio, TX maldayeh@swri.edu Orbit Start and End Times: 23: 2009-03-26 21:09:00.318 to 2009-04-03 16:07:51.743 24: 2009-04-03 12:10:21.253 to 2009-04-11 08:15:09.669 25: 2009-04-11 05:06:40.967 to 2009-04-18 22:05:11.125 27: 2009-04-26 08:27:40.916 to 2009-05-04 05:31:06.519 28: 2009-05-04 02:02:57.673 to 2009-05-11 21:13:47.596 29: 2009-05-11 17:27:02.484 to 2009-05-19 19:27:18.831 51: 2009-10-26 08:19:34.905 to 2009-11-03 02:38:01.730 52: 2009-11-02 22:34:07.792 to 2009-11-10 19:03:55.230 53: 2009-11-10 15:46:22.161 to 2009-11-18 10:58:17.674 55: 2009-11-25 23:44:19.069 to 2009-12-03 11:26:37.151 56: 2009-12-03 08:22:31.792 to 2009-12-10 22:03:52.604 57: 2009-12-10 18:55:33.969 to 2009-12-18 06:58:47.247 72: 2010-04-04 11:17:28.386 to 2010-04-12 09:13:51.008 74: 2010-04-19 14:09:01.851 to 2010-04-27 03:44:14.913 77: 2010-05-12 01:33:51.796 to 2010-05-19 20:43:01.583 78: 2010-05-19 17:33:48.047 to 2010-05-27 13:02:03.396 103: 2010-11-26 07:56:05.324 to 2010-12-04 04:11:44.879 187a: 2012-11-21 00:17:13.430 to 2012-11-25 00:40:26.707 188b: 2012-12-03 12:46:18.859 to 2012-12-08 00:44:50.846 206a: 2013-05-13 23:15:27.433 to 2013-05-17 12:19:58.215 207b: 2013-05-26 12:21:08.868 to 2013-05-30 23:14:44.989 For the first two and a half years of science operations (through Orbit 127), IBEX's orbital period was ~7.5 days and the spin axis was repointed once each orbit (around perigee), leading to bands of sky viewing centered 7.5 apart. In June 2011, over Orbits 128 and 129, IBEX was maneuvered into a previously unknown, long-term stable lunar synchronous orbit with apogee still ~50 RE (McComas et al. 2011a). Since then, IBEX's orbital period has been ~9.1 days (one-third of the lunar sidereal period of 27.3 days). Orbit numbers from 130 onward are split into two segments, 'a' and 'b'. Furthermore, starting in orbit segment 184a, the IBEX team modified the IBEX-Hi energy step sequence and eliminated the lowest energy step (ESA1) in exchange for doubling the statistical sampling of ESA3 (center energy ~1.1 keV).

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2018. 2: This data set is from the Release 13 one-year IBEX-Hi map data for the nine years, 2009-2018, in the form of antiram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) but with no corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 13 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 13 map numbers (1-20) with mission year (1-10), orbits (11-431bb), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2018); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015-06/23/2016 Map 16: year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016-12/26/2016 Map 17: year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016-06/25/2017 Map 18: year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017-12/25/2017 Map 19: year 10, orbits 391a-411b, dates 12/25/2017-06/28/2018 Map 20: year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018-12/26/2018 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_cg_yearN for N=8, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, noSP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 13 data extend through Map 20 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 14 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2018. 2: This data set is from the Release 13 one-year IBEX-Hi map data for the nine years, 2009-2018, in the form of ram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) but with no corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 13 map numbers (1-20) with mission year (1-10), orbits (11-431bb), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2018); each year is associated with two consecutive maps; Map 1: year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015-06/23/2016 Map 16: year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016-12/26/2016 Map 17: year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016-06/25/2017 Map 18: year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017-12/25/2017 Map 19: year 10, orbits 391a-411b, dates 12/25/2017-06/28/2018 Map 20: year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018-12/26/2018 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_ram_cg_yearN for N=8, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, noSP, 1 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 13 data extend through Map 20 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 15 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2018. 2: This data set is derived from the Release 14 three-year IBEX-Hi map data with two-year overlaps to adjacent maps, 2009-2011, 2010-2012, 2011-2013, and so forth through 2015-2017 from ram-direction fluxes with corrections for spacecraft motion (cg: Compton-Getting) but with no corrections (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. The data set parameters include line-of-sight (LOS) integrated pressures separately computed from the Global Distributed Flux (GDF), the ribbon flux, and the total of both LOS pressures. Additionally there are signal/noise ratios for the GDF, ribbon, and total pressures. Finally, there are power-law slope and values for the GDF differential flux, also including signal/noise of the slope. 3: The data consist of ram-direction sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for the above parameters. 4: Details of the data and enabled science from Release 14 are given in the following journal publication: Schwadron, N. A., et al. (2018), Time Dependence of the IBEX Ribbon and the Globally Distributed Energetic Neutral Atom Flux Using the First 9 Years of Observations https://iopscience.iop.org /article/10.3847/1538-4365/aae48e/meta 5: The following codes are used to define dataset types in the multiple IBEX data releases: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 6: This particular dataset denoted in the original ascii files as: -- GDFPressure: Globally Distributed Flux Line-of-Sight Integrated Pressure in pdyne-au/cm^2 -- GDFSlope: Power-Law Slope of the differential flux spectrum for the Globally Distributed Flux -- GDFSlopeSN: Signal/Noise ratio of the GDF differential flux power-law slope where noise represents uncertainty -- GDFSN: Globally Distributed Flux Signal/Noise, where Noise is defined as the uncertainty and the Signal is GDF Line-of-Sight -integrated pressure -- RibbonPressure: Ribbon Line-of-Sight Integrated Pressure in pdyne-au/cm^2 -- RibbonSN: Ribbon Signal/Noise, where Noise is defined as the uncertainty and the Signal is GDF Line-of-Sight -integrated pressure -- TotPressure: Total Pressure in ENA maps including both the GDF and Ribbon. Line-of-Sight Integrated Pressure in pdyne-au/cm^2 -- TotSN: Total Pressure Signal-to-Noise where noise represents uncertainty and signal represents the total LOS-integrated pressure
- Modification History
The Release 14 data extend through Map 20 and contain modifications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 15 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 15 (2 or 3 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. ribcen = maps are in a ribbon centered frame. Combined maps information: years01-03 refers to 2009, 2010, 2011 years04-05 refers to 2012, 2013; years06-07 refers to 2014, 2015; years08-09 refers to 2016, 2017. 7. The following list associates Release 15 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: Data Release 15 description: Maps are in a ribbon centered frame. Data are Compton-Getting and Survival Probability corrected. Centers for different energies are as follows (following Funsten et al. 2013): Map Centers for each energy (in eclipticJ2000; [lon,lat]): ESA2 ribbon center : b_lon_lat_ec = [218.5, 43.1] ESA3 ribbon center : b_lon_lat_ec = [220.3, 40.5] ESA4 ribbon center : b_lon_lat_ec = [219.6, 39.8] ESA5 ribbon center : b_lon_lat_ec = [217.9, 37.7] ESA6 ribbon center : b_lon_lat_ec = [214.2, 32.4] 9: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as ribcen_esa2_hvset_tabular_cg_single_yearsYYY for YYY = 123 refers to 2009, 2010, 2011; YYY = 45 refers to 2012, 2013; YYY = 67 refers to 2014, 2015; YYY = 89 refers to 2016, 2017; For instance, ribcen_esa5_hvset_tabular_cg_single_years45 contains data for combined years 2012 and 2013 at ESA 5. The set includes pixel map data from ribbon centered frame, CG, SP, 2 or 3 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 15 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_antiram_cg_single includes pixel map data from antiram direction (antiram-directional), CG, NOSP, 11 year cadence.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directionl ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (11 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mono = mono-energy Compton-Getting corrected maps. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (11 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data averaged for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction (nosp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mono = mono-energy Compton-Getting corrected maps. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (11 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mono = mono-energy Compton-Getting corrected maps. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_cg_single, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, SP, 11 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (11 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data averaged for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ANTIRAMdirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mono = mono-energy Compton-Getting corrected maps. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_antiram_cg_N\hv60.hide-trp-mono_80-M-V , where N=2009,2019, M = 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, 4.29 showing the energy of the channel, and V = 'flux', 'fvar', or 'fsnr', includes pixel map data from antiram direction, CG, SP, mono-energy, 1 year cadence.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_cg_tabular_single, includes pixel map data from all directions (omnidirectional), CG, SP, 11 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 (3 year-cadence) in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction (sp) for ENA survival probability between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (11 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data averaged for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (6 months-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of omnidirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp)mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mono = mono-energy Compton-Getting corrected maps. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_tabular_ram_cg_single, includes pixel map data from ram direction, CG, SP, 11 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (11 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data averaged for the years 2009-2019 in the form of RAMdirectional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 (1 year-cadence) IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of ram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with Compton-Getting correction (cg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and correction for ENA survival probability (sp) mono-energy (mono) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. mono = mono-energy Compton-Getting corrected maps. 7.

- Description
1: The Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) has operated in space since 2008 updating our knowledge of the outer heliosphere and its interaction with the local interstellar medium. Start-time: 2008-12-25. There are currently 16 releases of IBEX-HI and/or IBEX-LO data covering 2009-2019. 2: This data set is from the Release 16 IBEX-Hi map data for the years 2009-2019 in the form of antiram-directional ENA (hydrogen) fluxes with no Compton-Getting correction (nocg) of flux spectra for spacecraft motion and no correction for ENA survival probability (nosp) between 1 and 100 AU. 3. The data consist of all-sky maps in Solar Ecliptic Longitude (east and west) and Latitude angles for ENA (hydrogen) fluxes from IBEX-Hi energy bands 2-6 in numerical data form. Energy channels 2-6 have FWHM ranges of 0.52-0.95, 0.84-1.55, 1.36-2.50, 1.99-3.75, 3.13-6.00 keV, respectively. The corresponding center-point energies are 0.71, 1.11, 1.74, 2.73, and 4.29 keV. Details of the data and enabled science from Release 10 are given in the following journal publication: 4: McComas, D. J., et al. (2017), Seven Years of Imaging the Global Heliosphere with IBEX, Astrophys. J. Supp. Ser., 229(2), 41 (32 pp.), 5: http://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4365/aa66d8 6. The following codes are used to define dataset types: cg = Compton-Getting corrections have been applied to the data to account for the speed of the spacecraft relative to the direction of arrival of the ENAs. nocg = no Compton-Getting corrections sp = survival probability corrections have been applied to the data to account for the loss of ENAs due to radiation pressure, photoionization and ionization via charge exchange with solar wind protons as they stream through the heliosphere. This correction scales the data out from IBEX at 1 AU to ~100 AU. In the original data this mode is denoted as Tabular. noSP - no survival probability corrections have been applied to the data. omni = data from all directions. ram = data was collected when the spacecraft was ramming into the incoming ENAs. antiram = data was collected when the spacecraft was moving away from the incoming ENAs. 7. The following list associates Release 16 map numbers (1-22) with mission year (1-9), orbits (11-471b), and dates (12/25/2008-12/26/2019): Map 1: Map2009A, year 1, orbits 11-34, dates 12/25/2008-06/25/2009 Map 2: Map2009B, year 1, orbits 35-58, dates 06/25/2009-12/25/2009 Map 3: Map2010A, year 2, orbits 59-82, dates 12/25/2009-06/26/2010 Map 4: Map2010B, year 2, orbits 83-106, dates 06/26/2010-12/26/2010 Map 5: Map2011A, year 3, orbits 107-130a, dates 12/26/2010-06/25/2011 Map 6: Map2011B, year 3, orbits 130b-150a, dates 06/25/2011-12/24/2011 Map 7: Map2012A, year 4, orbits 150b-170a, dates 12/24/2011-06/22/2012 Map 8: Map2012B, year 4, orbits 170b-190b, dates 06/22/2012-12/26/2012 Map 9: Map2013A, year 5, orbits 191a-210b, dates 12/26/2012-06/26/2013 Map 10: Map2013B, year 5, orbits 211a-230b, dates 06/26/2013-12/26/2013 Map 11: Map2014A, year 6, orbits 231a-250b, dates 12/26/2013-06/26/2014 Map 12: Map2014B, year 6, orbits 251a-270b, dates 06/26/2014-12/24/2014 Map 13: Map2015A, year 7, orbits 271a-290b, dates 12/24/2014-06/24/2015 Map 14: Map2015B, year 7, orbits 291a-310b, dates 06/24/2015-12/23/2015 Map 15: Map2016A, year 8, orbits 311a-330b, dates 12/24/2015 . 06/23/2016 Map 16: Map2016B, year 8, orbits 331a-351a, dates 06/24/2016 . 12/26/2016 Map 17: Map2017A, year 9, orbits 351b-371a, dates 12/26/2016 . 06/24/2017 Map 18: Map2017B, year 9, orbits 371b-391a, dates 06/25/2017 . 12/25/2017 Map 19: Map2018A, year 10, orbits 391b-411b, dates 12/25/2017 . 06/28/2018 Map 20: Map2018B, year 10, orbits 412a-431b, dates 06/29/2018 . 12/26/2018 Map 21: Map2019A, year 11, orbits 432a-451b, dates 12/27/2018 . 06/27/2019 Map 22: Map2019B, year 11, orbits 452a-471b, dates 06/28/2019 . 12/26/2019 8: This particular data set, denoted in the original ascii files as hvset_noSP_antiram_single, includes pixel map data from antiram direction, no CG, no SP, 11 year cadence.
- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.

- Modification History
The Release 16 data extend through Map 22 and contain modications and updates of Maps 1-2 from Release 2, Maps 1-6 from Release 4, and Maps 1-10 from Release 7, maps 1-14 from Release 10, maps 15-22 from Release 16. The present CDF data set was converted from the originally archived data in ascii list format but otherwise includes no changes in the data. The original data are given in 30 rows for Solar Ecliptic Latitude and 60 columns for Solar Ecliptic East Longitude. The accompanying documentation described the row latitude data as starting from the north Ecliptic pole (+90 degrees) and decreasing in value to the south Ecliptic pole (-90 degrees). During preparation of the data set in CDF format, SPDF discovered that the correct order was increasing from row 1 for the South Ecliptic pole to row 30 for the north Ecliptic pole. East longitude is defined correctly for the column order but we have instead used west longitude to better represent the outward-looking viewpoint from IBEX to the outer heliosphere as typically used in IBEX team plots.
