Mars Express ion mass distribution functions

ResourceID
spase://ESA/NumericalData/MarsExpress/ASPERA3/IMA/EDR/PT1S

Description

The data consist of arrays of counts of ions at 96 energy steps
spanning 0.01-40 keV/q and 32 mass channels giving good coverage for H+, He+, He++, O+.
Temporal separation between arrays is ~12 sec (in the arrays sampled).
The data are organized in csv ASCII format for spreadsheet usage. No spacecraft
trajectory data are included in these experiment data records, but see
https://www.rssd.esa.int/index.php?project=PSA&page=ancillary. As of June 2012, these data were available for mid-2003 through Jun 2011, although for the 2003 cruise phase, a total of only several hours of data were generated and are available.
