Readme for ALSEP 28s data The mission, SWS instruments, data analysis applied to the instrument outputs, and the data products are extensively discussed in the Caltech report "ALSEP Solar Wind Spectrometer Plasma Data as Observed at the Apollo 12 and 15 Landing Sites" by B.E. Goldstein, D.R. Clay, C.W. Snyder and M. Neugebauer. This report is electronically accessible within NSSDC's Data Set Catalog at ftp://nssdcftp.gsfc.nasa.gov/documentation/old_data_doc/all_catalogs/dsc_0218_tif/ as files dsc_218_0008.tif through dsc_218_0034.dsc. (There is one file per page of original document.) An complementary site for ALSEP/SWS documentation are is the Planetary Data System site at Washington University. See http://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/lunar01/a12a-l-sws-3-solar-wind-28s-res-v1/a12sw_0001/ http://pds-geosciences.wustl.edu/lunar01/a15a-l-sws-3-solar-wind-28s-res-v1/a15sw_0001/ A subset of the physical parameters in each original 28-s records was captured from the PDS site at Washington U. to be provided through the OMNIWeb-Plus and LunaSOX web pages of GSFC/SPDF. The subset contains proton density, flow speed and direction angles, thermal speed, and alpha-to-proton density ratio. -----------------------------------------------------------------
