Abstract:
The main purpose of the Wind spacecraft is to measure the incoming
solar wind, magnetic fields and particles, although early on it will
also observe the Earth's foreshock region. Wind, together with
Geotail, Polar, SOHO, and Cluster projects, constitute a cooperative
scientific satellite project designated the International Solar
Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) program which aims at gaining improved
... understanding of the physics of solar terrestrial relations.
This experiment is designed to measure the full three-dimensional
distribution of suprathermal electrons and ions at energies from a few
eV to over several hundred keV on the WIND spacecraft. Its high
sensitivity, wide dynamic range, and good energy and angular
resolution make it especially capable of detecting and characterizing
the numerous populations of particles that are present in
interplanetary space at energies above the bulk of the solar wind
particles and below the energies typical of most cosmic rays.
Data consists of ion moments, energy spectra, electron spectra,
electron and ion omni directional energy spectra. Data are available
from SSL at University of California, Berkeley
(http://sprg.ssl.berkeley.edu/wind3dp/esahome.html) and at the NSSDC
CDAWeb (http://cdaweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/cdaweb/)
