InformationURL Name PAPCO Software URL http://www.papco.org Description PaPCo is IDL software for data visualization and analysis. It is modular, PaPCo modules built by various institutions and individuals plug into PaPCo core to provide data products. These modules provide graphic panels that are stacked on a time axis. About 60 modules exist, and 30 are supported as "core modules" that come with PaPCo. There are modules from 15+ spacecraft, including CRRES, Polar, Cassini and Cluster. Data from CDAWeb is plottable as well. The software is open-source, making it very flexible and well-suited for science use.

The data from the two lowest energy channels in this data set (430 and 585 eV respectively) should be used with caution. Prior to the breakdown, the TIMAS H0 data product provides higher time resolution data in the full energy and angular range. The K1 data are averaged over time (96 seconds) and angle (nearly the full 4 pi), so narrow angular and/or temporal features are not shown.
