PLASTIC Data Plots

Plots

• Proton Parameters: Bulk Velocity, Density, and Temperature derived from a 1D Maxwellian fit of PLASTIC data.
• Proton Velocity Components: HERTN and RTN velocity components and flow angles derived from a 1D Maxwellian fit of PLASTIC data.
• Proton Condegrams: Bulk Velocity, Density, and Temperature derived from a 1D Maxwellian fit of PLASTIC data. Condegram Plots.
• Protons Projected to Earth: Stereo A and B times have been translated to Earth's heliocentric distance and longitude for comparison with Wind SWE key parameters (ftp://cdaweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/istp/, courtesy K. Ogilvie, SWE PI). Data are otherwise unmodified.
• On-Board Proton Moments: Bulk Velocity, Density, and Temperature derived from on-board (IDPU) moment calculations. These data are updated on a daily basis, but are not fully validated.
• Solar Wind Stack Plots: Time series of the solar wind full resolution rate.
• He+ Plots: Explanation.
