Description
This data set contains all available plasma electron number densities
derived from observations by Galileo PWS (Plasma Wave Science). Data
provided on this volume are at the highest available time and frequency
resolution and have been calibrated into physical units..

Description
J. B. Barnhart et. al. 2009 paper describing
data interpretation techniques used on this volume, but applied to
the Voyager PWS waveform datasets. No similar paper has been released
for Galileo PWS plasma density determination, thus this one has been
included as the best available documentation for density determination
when Fpe << Fce.
