These data were recorded by Proton-Rate Sectored Telescopes 2 and 3 (PRTL2 and PRTL3). Data ==== The file names for ULYSSES-KEP Experiment data files are: Tyydoy.TAB These are ASCII files. The data entries in the files are always single precision float values containing one hour averages in Flux / (s cm^2 sr) starting at midnight for each day. The corresponding times are integers indicating start of average. The entries are separated by blanks. Then the total length of the ASCII records are: 130 Bytes with 24 records per file. Bad or absent data are flagged with -9.99999e+10. The data entries include: PRTL2 and PRTL3 Proton-Rate Sectored (~500-1000 keV) Sectors 1-8 The record structure is as follows: 1 character string (24 Bytes) with the format yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ yyyy = year mm = month dd = day hh = hours mm = minutes ss.sss = seconds 8 reals (13 Bytes, e.g. -1.23456E+03) for PRTL2 and PRTL3 (8 sectors) References: ======== Drolias B., J.
