Pioneer 11 Trapped Radiation Detector (TRD) 30-m Count Rate Summary Data

Published by SPDF | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: September 09, 2026 at 12:14 AM | Dataset Last Updated: September 08, 2026
This ASCII data set contains 30-min count rates for 21 "pulse-counting" channels from a Cerenkov counter (which measures, via 3 discrimination levels, electrons >6 MeV plus nuclei >480 MeV/n, electrons >9 MeV plus nuclei >550 MeV/n, and electrons >13 MeV plus nuclei >650 MeV/n), an electron scatter detector (nuclei >80 MeV/n and electrons >0.16, >0.255, >0.46 MeV), and a minimizing ionizing particle counter (nuclei >80 MeV and electrons >35 MeV. The data set also contains 30-min averaged currents from the Cerenkov counter and two scintillators, spacecraft position and attitude data, and various other statistical and housekeeping data. The electrometer-based currents data are not reliable. The data are all for mission cruise phases and not planetary encounters.
