This data set, provided by the principal investigator, contains the output of 10 energetic particle detectors yielding electron data in the 0.15-keV to 2-MeV range and proton data in the 2-keV to 20-MeV range. The data set is on binary magnetic tapes written on an IBM 360/75 computer. The tapes contain varying numbers of files of reduced data. The files contain varying numbers of records. All records are 1.3E4 bytes long, which represents one minute of data. Given are pass number, date and universal time, geodetic and geomagnetic coordinates, invariant latitude, solar and magnetic local time, geomagnetic B and L values, counting rates for every 0.267 s, and miscellaneous housekeeping data. The data are chronologically ordered on most tapes. There are gaps in the data due to experiment-off times, the largest of which are from April 25 to May 12, 1971, July 7 to July 10, 1971, and September 9 to October 26, 1971. An index to this data set is given in data set 71-024A-04B.
