Time span: 1963-11-27 to 1964-04-03
These reduced ion flux data plots were supplied by the experimenter and microfilmed by NSSDC onto one reel of 16-mm microfilm. On each plot, ion flux (converted to normal incidence flux: ions/sq cm-s) is presented vs time and radial distance for each of the three sectors of the satellite's equatorial plane. A single plot contains 2 days (one half of an orbit) of data. For each time period, there is one plot for each of the 600, 1700, 2970, and 3700 eV energy levels. The data cover the time periods November 27, 1963, to March 22, 1964, and March 31 to April 3, 1964. These correspond to orbits 1 through 30 plus orbit 33. There is a 90% coverage for the first time period and a 5% coverage for the second time period.
