INTRODUCTION                                                                  
====================================================================          
                                                                              
     This volume contains archival data produced during the Solar Wind        
Scintillation Experiment carried out using the Galileo spacecraft (in         
cruise to Jupiter) and Earth-based receiving stations of the NASA Deep        
Space Network (DSN).                                                          
                                                                              
     Each volume contains data from a limited number of solar wind            
scintillation observations.  The volume identifier and the range of           
dates covered by a data file are

    This volume contains all of the Galileo RSS scintillation data            
delivered to PDS at this time. The data on this volume were originally        
contained on eight volumes (GORS_0008 - GORS_0015).

     This volume contains Galileo Solar Wind Scintillation Experiment         
raw data.  The volume has the structure illustrated in the diagram            
below.  In cases where the directory would contain no files, the              
directory itself will be omitted from the volume.                             
                                                                              
     Data are arranged in the volume chronologically.  Data files are         
not repeated within the volume, although two files may overlap in time        
during a period in which two DSN stations are tracking the spacecraft         
simultaneously.

     The volume is organized according to the PDS standard for "one           
data set, one volume."  This file (AAREADME.TXT), a PDS volume                
object definition (VOLDESC.CAT), and the listing of errors and                
changes (ERRATA.TXT) are included at the root level.  The following           
directories of descriptive material are also at the root level:               
                                                                              
          CALIB     contains tables of low-gain antenna pattern               
                    measurements.                                             
                                                                              
          CATALOG   contains descriptive files for cataloging each            
                    of the data types included in this disc.                  
                                                                              
          DOCUMENT  contains a plain text Software Interface                  
                    Specification (SIS) for each data type, if                
                    available, plus other documentation.                      
                                                                              
          GEOMETRY  contains NAIF SPK, CK, and SCLK files giving              
                    spacecraft and planetary ephemerides during the           
                    observation period and attitude information for           
                    reconstructing the spacecraft antenna pointing.           
                                                                              
          INDEX     contains index information on each of the data            
                    files included in this disc; it also includes a           
                    cumulative index to all files in this volume              
                    set.                                                      
                                                                              
The remaining directories at the root level contain data files and            
detached PDS labels.                                                          
                                                                              
                                                                              
====================================================================          
FILE FORMAT                                                                   
====================================================================          
                                                                              
     All data files on the disc are accompanied by detached                   
PDS labels, which describe their contents.  PDS TEXT objects                  
include attached labels.                                                      
                                                                              
     Minimal labels were used to facilitate transfer of the data to           
an archive; construction of full labels with object definitions               
would have added significantly to the development time, possibly              
putting the total effort in jeopardy.                                         
                                                                              
     Detached labels were chosen over attached labels for simplicity          
of implementation.                                                            
                                                                              
     Labels have the same file name as the primary data file except           
for the suffix ".LBL".                                                        
                                                                              
     Detailed documentation on file structure is available                    
in Software Interface Specifications in the DOCUMENT directory.               
                                                                              
     Text files, including data files of ASCII text and all labels            
(*.LBL files) and tables (*.TAB files), are delimited by carriage-            
return (ASCII 13) line-feed (ASCII 10) pairs at the end of each               
line.
