Ulysses Jupiter Encounter Cospin Bundle Readme Cospin-Cosmic Ray and Solar-Particle Investigation 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-17 Planetary Plasma Interactions Discipline Node of the Planetary Data System Introduction ============ This document contains information pertaining to the data submitted to the Planetary Data System (PDS) by the Ulysses COSPIN investigators, for the Ulysses Jupiter Encounter Cospin Bundle. This bundle includes data from the Anisotropy Telescope (AT), High Energy Telescope (HET), High Flux Telescope (HFT), Kiel Electron Telescope (KET), Low Energy Telescope (LET) detectors from 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-17 (days 25-48 inclusive). This bundle is organized into several collections, including: data-at, data-het, data-hft, data-ket-intensity, data-ket-raw, data-let and document-cospin. PDS4 documentation is in all XML. There is an XML label for every product in the archive. The COSPIN (SIM) Experiment is a group of six charged particle telescopes to measure the energy, composition, intensity and anisotropy of nucleons in the energy range from ~0.5 MeV/nucleon to ~600 MeV/nucleon for elements in the range H to Ni. Isotopic abundances for nuclei H to Ni are obtained over a more limited energy range. Electron measurements extend from 4 to several hundred MeV. One set of telescopes will measure the three-dimensional anisotropies of protons and helium at low energies. A special high flux telescope provides measurements of protons and heavier particles ~ 0.2 to ~ 10 MeV/n with high azimuthal resolution. These instruments were prepared by the international COPSIN consortium to address a wide range of scientific objectives made possible by a mission to investigate the Sun and the heliosphere in three dimensions. Ulysses Anisotropy Telescope (AT) Data Collection ================================================= The Anisotropy Telescope (AT) experiment is a two-telescope device. The telescopes are nominally identical with Telescope T1 pointing at 60 degrees to the spacecraft spin axis and telescope T2 pointing at 145 degrees. They have a full-cone opening aperture of 70 degrees and a geometric factor of 0.7 cm^2 sr. Together they provide 80% coverage of the full sky. The most significant gap in the coverage is a cone with a half angle of 25 degrees centered on the Earthward pointing line along the spacecraft spin-axis. There is also a 5 degree gap in coverage between the two telescopes. Ulysses High Energy Telescope (HET) Data Collection =================================================== This collection contains ion flux data recorded by the COPSIN High Energy Telescope (HET) during the Ulysses Jupiter encounter 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-18. Ulysses High Flux Telescope (HFT) Data Collection ================================================= This collection contains ion flux data recorded by the COSPIN High Flux Telescope (HFT) during the Ulysses Jupiter encounter 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-18. Ulysses Kiel Electron Telescope (KET) Intensity Data Collection =============================================================== This collection contains electron rates, alpha and proton intensities data recorded by the COSPIN Kiel Electron Telescope (KET) during the Ulysses Jupiter encounter 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-18. Ulysses Kiel Electron Telescope (KET) Raw Data Collection ========================================================= This collection contains raw electron rates, alpha and proton intensities data recorded by the COSPIN Kiel Electron Telescope (KET) during the Ulysses Jupiter encounter 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-18. Ulysses Low Energy Telescope (LET) Raw Data Collection ====================================================== This collection contains COSPIN Low Energy Telescope (LET) 32 second particle flux rates from the Ulysses Jupiter encounter 1992-01-25 to 1992-02-16. This is a PDS4 archive of the following PDS3 data sets: ULY-J-COSPIN-AT-4-FLUX-256SEC-V1.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519832), ULY-J-COSPIN-HET-3-RDR-FLUX-HIRES-V1.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519833), ULY-J-COSPIN-HFT-3-RDR-FLUX-HIRES-V1.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519834), ULY-J-COSPIN-KET-3-RDR-INTENS-HIRES-V1.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519835), ULY-J-COSPIN-KET-3-RDR-RAW-HIRES-V1.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519836), ULY-J-COSPIN-LET-3-RDR-FLUX-32SEC-V1.0 (https://doi.org/10.17189/1519837), These data sets were originally a partial of the remake of the PDS volume ULY_5001 that was produced for the ESA Special Publication 1230. Under the PDS3 standard all archives were self contained and could in principle be stored in a single file system (disk, CD-ROM, etc.). PDS4 takes advantage of the network capabilities that allow archives to be distributed. As a result, some of the documents and metadata previously stored in the PDS3 catalog files are no longer maintained locally, but are maintained in a central repository. Those files are referenced by unique PDS logical identifiers that are included in the document collection inventory. Errata ====== There were no known deficiencies or errors reported in the errata.txt files under PDS3. During the migration from PDS3 to PDS4 no issues were found and corrected in the PDS4 metadata. The data remain unchanged. Contacts ======== This bundle was produced for the Planetary Data System (PDS) at the Planetary Plasma Interactions (PPI) node.
