Das Plasmaexperiment auf Helios (E1).
Abstract
The solar probe Helios carries four independent instruments designed for solar wind measurements. Three instruments analyze the positive component (protons and heavier ions) of the solar wind. One instrument measures electrons in the energy range from 0.5 to 1660 eV with a one-dimensional angular resolution. With these instruments the velocity distribution functions of the various particles can be measured. Onboard data processing techniques and the High-Data-Mode measurement program are discussed.
