DESCRIPTION:

	This data set contains sixteen sector rate data for the
energetic particle detector obtained from the LEMMS and CMS telescopes during
the time of significant activity during the Earth encounter on day 342, 1990.
A data file record contains a single sector's data for a particular LEMMS or
CMS channel.  Also included are pitch and phase angles
of the particles counted by the detectors.  The angles are determined
in a coordinate system defined by the magnetic field (magnetic field
data provided by Steve Joy) and the position of Earth (calculated with
SPICE kernel data).  The z-axis of the coordinate system points along
the magnetic field.  The x-axis is chosen so Earth lies in the xz
plane.  The pitch angle is the angle between the sector look direction
and the z-axis.  The phase angle is the angle between x-axis and the
projection of the x-axis on the xy plane.  During the encounter, the
stepper motor was moving from position zero thru five.  Steps one through
five are reported in this data set.  The rates reported are in units
of counts/sec.  Pitch and phase angles are recorded in radians. 
                           CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE
	Data in this browse set includes only that data which has
valid data flag markers as a result of processing done by the Galileo
Energetic Particles Detector Archive Processor [EPDPROC91].   Invalid
data are marked by a -1.0 in the rate column of the invalid data.
