CASSINI SS/S RPWS CALIBRATED LP CONTINUOUS CURRENT V1.0

Published by National Aeronautics and Space Administration | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: July 17, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-07-17

The Cassini Radio and Plasma Wave Science (RPWS) Langmuir Probe continuous current data set comprises calibrated probe current measurements acquired up to 20 Hz rate at fixed bias voltage during the entire Cassini mission. These currents can be used to infer high temporal resolution density fluctuations between standard Langmuir Probe sweeps. If related to densities determined during a sweep prior to or following the 20 Hz data, or using other electron density estimates, the relative currents can be assigned absolute densities. Data are presented in text tables and are organized so as to have fixed-length records for ease in data handling.
