PVO VENUS ELECT TMP PROBE RESAMP SOLAR EUV 24 HR AVG VER 1.0

Description

The Solar EUV Daily Values File. This file gives the magnitude of the photoemission current from the radial probe, Ipe, (in units of 10-9 amps). Ipe dominates the ion current measurements outside the Venusian ionosphere, making possible the serendipitous measurement of the total solar EUV flux. The latter is an important parameter because solar EUV is the main source of ionization and heating for the Venusian thermosphere and ionosphere.
