TITLE:        Format for Pioneer 11 UVDB Cruise Archive Data Set

DESCR:        Format description of the Pioneer 11 UV photometer
              dataset for daily averages of the spin-averaged short and
              long wavelength channels from January 1973 onward. 
              These data are used to study the interaction of the solar
              wind with the interstellar medium by measurements of
              spatial and temporal variations of the intensity of
              backscattered solar Lyman alpha emission at 1216 A and
              of the solar Helium line at 584 A.
