Description
This data set contains the moments of the electron distribution function at the SURVEY cadence (30 s) computed from the distribution function.
It must be noted that, owing to measurement limitations in the low energy range, the moments are only partial moments calculated for energies above 50 eV. The dataset comprises the partial density, temperatures, and heat flux.
