description

This product, SWOOPS.TAB, was released as part of the PDS3 ULY-J-SWOOPS-5-RDR-PLASMA-HIRES-V1.0 data set. This product was originally a partial of the remake of the PDS volume ULY_5001 that was produced for the ESA Special Publication 1230. The metadata have been migrated to PDS4. The data themselves are unchanged.
