Voyager 2 Plasma Spectrometer (PLS) Faraday Cups A-D High Energy Resolution Current Ion Spectra, M Mode, for Proton Energies from 10 eV to 5950 eV, 96 s Data

These Ion Current Spectra in the Jovian Magnetosphere are from the Plasma Spectrometer (PLS) Instrument on Voyager 2 during July 1979 Flyby of Jupiter. The Instrument has four Faraday Cups A, B, C, and D, the Electron Data come only from Faraday Cup D. The Data are specified in Terms of Current per Faraday Cup in femto-amperes (10^-15 A equals 1 fA) versus Channel Number and Energy (eV). This Data Set is for the PLS M Mode covering Proton (H+ Ion) Energies from 10 eV to 5950 eV at High Energy Resolution in 128 logarithmic Energy Channels. The PLS Instrument samples only one Mode of Electron (E1, E2) or Ion (L, M) Spectra in each Time Interval, so the M Mode Data are not continuous but consecutive with the other Modes in Time.
