First multispacecraft ion measurements in and near the Earth's magnetosphere with the identical Cluster ion spectrometry (CIS) experiment

TL;DR: The Cluster Ion Spectrometry (CIS) experiment as discussed by the authors measured the full, three-dimensional ion distribution of the major magnetospheric ions (H+, He+, He++, and O+) from the thermal energies to about 40 keV/e.
Journal ArticleDOI

Four-point high time resolution information on electron densities by the electric field experiments (EFW) on Cluster

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential difference between the probe-to-plasma potential difference and the electron density was measured with a time resolution of a fraction of a second, and provided infor- mation on the electron densities over a wide range of electron density from the lobes ( 0.01 cm 3 ) to the magnetosheath (> 10 cm 3 ).
Journal ArticleDOI

Active spacecraft potential control for Cluster - implementation and first results

TL;DR: In this article, the design and principles of the operation of the instrument for active spacecraft potential control (ASPOC) are presented in detail, and the instrument is oper- ated with constant ion current for most of the time, but tests have been carried out with varying currents and a feedback mode with the instrument EFW, which measures the space- craft potential.
