L-Ordered and L-Interpolated Electron Count Rates

Description

The data set consists of L-interpolated, dead-time corrected, electron count rates from the type 302 Geiger-Mueller counter (from data set 61-020A-03A) in the form of card images on file 5 of one NSSDC-generated, 7-track, 556-bpi, IBM 7094, even-parity, BCD magnetic tape. The data records (one logical record per physical record) are ordered by L value. Each data record within the file is 80 characters long, is preceded by a 60-character header record, and is followed by a two-character trailer record. The experimental data have been interpolated to L= 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, and 12.0 and are grouped by L value. The data are time ordered within a given L-value group. The data format also includes time (local, UT, solar rotation), geomagnetic latitude, geographic latitude, B/B0, and McIlwain's L value. A similar data set (62-051A-03D) from Explorer 14 (EPE-B) is also contained on this tape (files 1 through 4).
