VOYAGER 1 SATURN PLASMA DERIVED ELECTRON BROWSE 96 SEC

THIS DATA SET CONTAINS THE THERMAL ELECTRON DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE IN THE PLS ENERGY RANGE (10-5950 EV) FROM VOYAGER 1 AT SATURN DERIVED BY FITTING THE LOW ENERGY ELECTRON COMPONENT WITH A MAXWELLIAN DISTRIBUTION, AND THE MOMENT DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE OF THE HOT ELECTRONS CALCULATED AFTER THE SIGNAL FROM THE THERMAL COMPONENT IS SUBTRACTED FROM THE ELECTRON SPECTRA. IT IS A SUBSET OF THE DATA SET VG1-S-PLS-5-ELE-FIT-96.0SEC WHICH SHOULD BE OBTAINED BEFORE THIS DATA IS USED. SPACECRAFT CHARGING MAY RESULT IN FACTOR OF 2-3 ERRORS IN THE THERMAL ELECTRON DENSITY. THE FIRST SIX COLUMNS ARE THE TIME TAG (YEAR, DAY, HOUR, MIN, SEC, MSEC), COLUMN 7 AND 8 ARE THE FIT DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE OF THE THERMAL ELECTRON COMPONENT, AND 9 AND 10 ARE THE MOMENT DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE OF THE SUPRATHERMAL ELECTRONS. EACH ROW HAS THE FORMAT (6I5,4E12.4). VALUES OF 1.E32 INDICATE THAT THE PARAMETER COULD NOT BE OBTAINED FROM THE DATA USING THE STANDARD ANALYSIS TECHNIQUE. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS DATASET AND THE INSTRUMENT WHICH PRODUCED IT CAN BE FOUND ELSEWHERE IN THIS CATALOG. AN OVERVIEW OF THE DATA IN THIS DATA SET CAN BE FOUND IN SITTLER ET AL. (1983) AND A COMPLETE INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION CAN BE FOUND IN BRIDGE (1977).

VOYAGER 2 SATURN PLASMA DERIVED ION MOMENTS 96 SEC

THIS DATA SET CONTAINS ESTIMATES OF THE ION MOMENT DENSITY IN THE PLS VOLTAGE RANGE (10-5950 EV/Q) AT SATURN DURING THE VOYAGER 2 ENCOUNTER. RIGID COROTATION IS ASSUMED, WHICH LEADS TO AN UNDERESTIMATE OF THE DENSITY IN SOME REGIONS, AS DOES THE USE OF AN ACCEPTANCE AREA RELEVANT FOR A COLD BEAM FOR PLASMA WHICH IS TRANSONIC IS SOME REGIONS. DENSITIES MAY BE UNDERESTIMATED BY A FACTOR OF 2-3 IN THE INNER MAGNETOSPHERE, SO THIS DATA SET SHOULD BE USED PRIMARILY FOR STUDIES USING VARIATIONS IN PLASMA DENSITY. THE FIT DENSITIES GIVE A BETTER ESTIMATE OF THE ABSOLUTE DENSITY. THIS IS THE DATA SHOWN AND DESCRIBED IN DETAIL IN LAZARUS AND MCNUTT (1983). DATA FORMAT: COLUMNS 1-5 ARE TIME (YEAR, DAY, HOUR, MIN, SEC) AND COLUMN 6 IS THE MOMENT DENSITY IN CM-3. EACH ROW HAS FORMAT (I5,I4,2I3,I4,F8.3). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS DATASET AND THE INSTRUMENT WHICH PRODUCED IT CAN BE FOUND ELSEWHERE IN THIS CATALOG. AN OVERVIEW OF THE DATA IN THIS DATA SET CAN BE FOUND IN LAZARUS AND MCNUTT (1983) AND A COMPLETE INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION CAN BE FOUND IN BRIDGE (1977).

VOYAGER 2 SATURN PLASMA DERIVED ELECTRON PARAMETERS 96 SEC

THIS DATA SET CONTAINS ELECTRON PARAMETERS IN THE PLS ENERGY RANGE (10-5950 EV) AT SATURN DURING THE VOYAGER 2 ENCOUNTER. PARAMETERS ARE CALCULATED IN SEVERAL WAYS. TOTAL MOMENT DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE ARE GIVEN.

THE MOMENT DENSITY AND TEMPERATURE OF THE HOT COMPONENT IS CALCULATED AFTER THE THERMAL COMPONENT IS SUBTRACTED FROM THE SPECTRUM. THE CHI-SQUARE VALUE FOR EACH FIT IS GIVEN. THE SPACECRAFT CHARGE IS NOT CALCULATED CONSISTENTLY, AND MAY RESULT IN FACTOR OF 2-3 ERRORS IN THE THERMAL ELECTRON DENSITY. DATA IS UNRELIABLE INSIDE 6 RS AND IN THE OCCULTATION REGIONS. A COMPLETE DESCRIPTION OF THIS DATA SET IS IN SITTLER ET AL. (1983). DATA FORMAT: THE DATA SET IS IN ASC FORMAT AND CAN BE READ USING THE FOLLOWING FORTRAN STATEMENT:\n

VOYAGER 2 SATURN MAGNETOMETER RESAMPLED DATA 48.0 SEC

This data set includes Voyager 2 Saturn encounter magnetometer data that have been resampled at a 48.0 second sample rate. The data set is composed of 6 columns: 1) ctime - this column contains the data acquisition time. The time is always output in the ISO standard spacecraft event time format (yyyy-mm-dd-Thh:mm:ss.sss) but is stored internally in Cline time which is measured in seconds after 00:00:00.000 Jan 01, 1966, 2) br - this column contains the radial component of the magnetic field, 3) bphi - this column contains the phi component of the magnetic field, 4) btheta - this column contains the theta component of the magnetic field, 5) bmag - this column contains the magnitude of the magnetic field, 6) flag - a flag value that indicates either software error or spacecraft hardware interference reduced confidence in this record (flag value of 1 is bad , 0 is good or unchecked). All magnetic field observations are measured in nanoTeslas. The coordinate system for this dataset is Minus Saturn Longitude System (-SLS). All of the magnetic field data are calibrated (see the instrument calibration description for more details). The SLS coordinate system is defined in Desch and Kaiser, 1981 and the reference documents for this dataset are: Ness et al, 1982 Acuna,Connerney,and Ness, 1983 Connerney,Acuna,and Ness, 1983 Behannon,Lepping,and Ness, 1983

VOYAGER 1&2 SATURN BRIGHTNESS NORTH/SOUTH MAP SET V1.0

This data set contains Voyager 1 and 2 measurements of the brightness of Saturn at H Lyman alpha and in the H2 Lyman and Werner bands shortward of H Lyman alpha. Pointing has been corrected by the C-Smithing process, and these data were derived from the pre-encounter North-South Map sequences. In this sequence, the UVS field of view was located near the central meridian of the planet. The field of view stepped slowly from north to south, and then rapidly repositioned to the north. These scans were repeated until all longitudes had been sampled. Coverage in longitude was nearly continuous in time. There were short breaks for observations of satellites.

ONLY SPECTRA WHICH HAD DISTINCT CURRENT PEAKS WERE FIT. SPECTRA WERE FIT USING ONE OR TWO ION SPECIES, PROTONS AND/OR A HEAVY ION WHICH WAS TAKEN TO BE OXYGEN.
