Rev., 71, 55, 1955).Pitch-angle distrubutions, organized by energy, are computed from 9s measurements which are usually separated by one or more 3s spin-periods. These quantities are reliable and citable with caution, meaning that the PI advises that the user should discuss their interpretations with a member of the SWE science team before publishing. The following comments are intended to aid in the use and interpretation of the electron pitch-angle distributions reported in this data set. For each 'energy spectrum', observations are made at 13 energy channels: E = 19.34, 38.68, 58.03, 77.37, 96.71, 116.1, 193.4, 290.1, 425.5, 580.3, 773.7, 1006., and 1238. eV. The observations made at each energy are sorted into pitch-angle bins, six degrees in width, from 0 degrees (flux nearly parallel to B) to 180 degrees (flux nearly anti-parallel with B). A 'spin-averaged' set of observations (aggregated from all pitch-angle bins, each energy) is also reported, one value for each energy channel. The value reported for any bin (including the spin-averaged 'energy bins' is given as a phase-space density, f [#/{cc*(cm/s)^3}], averaged over contributing detectors. The data set reported here contains: f_pitch_E00, f_pitch_E01, f_pitch_E02, f_pitch_E03, f_pitch_E04, f_pitch_E05, f_pitch_E06, f_pitch_E07, f_pitch_E08, f_pitch_E09, f_pitch_E10, f_pitch_E11, f_pitch_E12 (the pitch-angle distributions for each energy channel, with 30 pitch-angle bins for each), and f_pitch_SPA (with 13 spin-averaged energy bins). For reference, the electron speeds (|V|, in cm/s) corresponding to the energy channels used, are reported in this data set. <_Description>Source: Master/CDFglobalAttributes/TEXT <_Rights> SPDX Creative Commons Zero v1.0 Universal https://spdx.org/licenses/CC0-1.0.html https://spdx.org/licenses/ http://wind.nasa.gov/data.php Wind Data Page Additional information about instruments and parameters is available on the <_Note>URL also in all.xml.
