Summary
Abstract: IMP-8 (IMP-J) was launched by NASA on October 26, 1973 to measure the
magnetic fields, plasmas, and energetic charged particles (e.g.,
cosmic rays) of the Earth's magnetotail and magnetosheath and of the
near-Earth solar wind. IMP-8 continues to operate.

The Energetic Particle Experiment (EPE) on IMP-8 provide
text-formatted data files containing energetic ion and electron count
rates and fluxes ... View entire text
