First 4 Moments of Distribution Function for Electrons and Protons Data

Description

This geosynchronous orbit, plasma environment picture atlas data set is on binary magnetic tape created on a CDC 6600 computer. Each physical record contains six sets of 85 words containing 10-min intervals of data, or a total of 1 h of data. The first two words of each physical record are CDC identification words. Each of the six sets contains the satellite name; time in year, month, day, hour, average minute, and day of year; number density, flux, energy density, energy flux, and the number of values of each for the two detectors on ATS 6 (N/S electrons and ions); the temperature correction coefficient, angle of N/S detector, pitch angle, energy step of the photoelectron cutoff, electron cutoff energy, and spacecraft potential; and the values of AE average index, AE maximum index, Kp index, and ephemeris information.
