Helios 2 E6 (Kunow) Hourly Particle Fluxes in ASCII Format

Published by NASA Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF) Data Services | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: June 23, 2026 at 09:11 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 22, 2026
Data set records contain fluxes of protons in 5 energy\nranges (4-13, 13-27, 27-37, 37-51, >51 MeV), alpha particles in 6 energy ranges\n(2-4, 4-13, 13-27, 27-37, 37-48, >48 MeV/n), and electrons in 2 ranges (0.3-0.8,\n0.8-2.0 MeV). The fluxes are averaged over intervals of approximately one hour. \nEach "data record" (having ending CR and/or LF) spans 4-5 hours and has 10 \ntime-overlapping segments. Each segment has averaging start and stop times plus \nwords for 13 fluxes and words for the statistical uncertainties in the 13 fluxes. \nHowever, most words in a given segment have fill values, such that good values \nfor a given flux (species and energy range) and its uncertainty appear only in \na minority of the segments. No spacecraft position information is included. \nData are from the E6 experiment on Helios 2.
