VG2 NEP LECP RESAMPLED SUMMARY SCAN AVERAGED 24SEC V1.0
This data consists of resampled data from the Low Energy
Charged Particle (LECP) Experiment on the Voyager 2 Spacecraft
for the period when Voyager 2 was in the vicinity of the planet
Neptune. The period covered is 1989-08-24T00:00:00.000 SCET to
1989-08-27T00:00:00.000 SCET. This data approximates a time series
of charged particle fluxes from a selection of channels available
from the instrument. The word approximates is used because
the angle scanning modes of the instrument complicates the
nature of the data. At times the instrument mechanically scans,
and at times it is fixed to look at a specific direction.
With the type of data given here, the fluxes are angle averaged
for those time periods when the instrument is scanning, and are
time averaged over an arbitrary period (12 or 24 sec, see below)
for the periods when the detectors are stationary.
