HEAO C-3 Data Processing and Analysis Software Library
NSSDCA ID: SPIS-00012
Availability: At NSSDC, Ready for Offline Distribution (or Staging if Digital)
Description
This data set includes a backup (tar format) set of software used to process and analyze heavy cosmic ray nuclei data from the Heavy Nuclei Experiment (HNE) on the HEAO 3 mission. Some of the programs were used to produce or analyze data in NSSDC data sets 79-082A-03A, 79-082A-03B, and 79-082A-03D. These software were originally submitted to NSSDC by Dr. Thomas L. Gerrard (deceased: June, 1997) of Caltech. Other members of the original HNE experiment team should be consulted on the use of the software, which have not been validated by NSSDC.
