This directory contains one file of 24-hour-averaged count rates 
and related parameters from the the Geiger Tube Telescope (GTT) flown 
on Pioneer 11.  The data were initially provided to NSSDC by the 
GTT team at U. Iowa in VMS binary format on magnetic tapes.  They 
have been converted to ASCII format at GSFC/SPDF, with an almost 
complete retention of the original sequence of words in the data 
records.  The data, and their binary format, are extensively 
discussed at
https://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/data/pioneer/pioneer11/particle/gtt/aavoldesc.sfd.

The format of the ASCII data contained in this directory follows:

        Note 1:  Earth received time  (ERT) for the data.

        Note 2:  Beginning time is the time of the first data point
                 found in the interval.  The Ending time is the
                 time of the last data point in the interval.

        Note 3:  This number will be the number of minutes in the
                 interval since these are  24-hour averages
                 the number will be 1440.

        Note 4:  This is a number assigned to describe the
                 accumulation period; for 24-hour averages 
                 it will be 5.

        Note 5:  Items 9 through 104 represent 8 sets of values.  The
                 order of the detectors are as follows: 	 

                       Position        Detector
                           1               G
                           2               A
                           3               B
                           4               G
                           5               AB
                           6               ABC
                           7               C
                           8               D
                           9               ABC
                          10               DEF
                          11               G + G
                          12               ABC + ABC

        Note 6:  The Fourier Coefficients are used in the following 
                 formula.
                 F(phi) = M ( 1 + K Cos ( phi - D ) )
  
        Note 7:  This time is spacecraft event time for the center
                 time of the data used in the sum.

        Note 8:  The celestial latitude and longitude are measured in a
                 reference system using the Sun as the reference body
                 and the true ecliptic of date as the reference plane.
                 This plane contains the vernal equinox and the 
                 longitudes are measured eastward from the line between
                 the vernal equinox and the Sun. The latitudes are
                 measured from the plane. Northward being positive.

        Note 9:  Calculated quantities.
                 Inclination of solar equator to ecliptic, I=7.25 degrees.
                 Longitude of the ascending node of the solar equator on
                 the ecliptic Omega=73 degrees+40 minutes +50.25*t seconds
                 where t is the time in years reckoned from 1850.0 .

        Note 10: All positional coordinates are referred to the
                 equinox/ecliptic of date.
