Energetic Particle Detector Data

NSSDC ID: SPMS-00385

Availability: Exclusively CDAW Proprietary Data - Contact Agent for More Information

Time span: 1977-07-28 to 1977-07-29

Description

These experimenter-supplied, energetic particle detector data are on binary magnetic tape created on a CDC 6600 computer. Each unblocked record contains 51 CDC 60-bit words. The data consist of universal time; components of magnetic coordinates; high and low energy electron spin averages (channels 1-6); low energy proton spin averages (channels 1-10); high energy proton spin averages (channels 1-16); colatitude measured from H axis (parallel to earth's dipole field); azimuth measured from negative V axis (radically outward from center of earth); second and fourth order spherical harmonic coefficients; east-west and north-south pitch angle anisotropy for low energy protons (channel 1); local time; and month, day and year. This data set was submitted as input for a Coordinated Data Analysis Workshop.
