Scientific paper

We present an overview of the plasma parameter regimes encountered by the Langmuir probe onboard the Cassini spacecraft. The study is based on the first 44 orbits in Saturn's magnetosphere and numerous encounters with the moon Titan. A special emphasis will be made on plasma density, electron temperature, ion drift speed and spacecraft potential estimations. Empirical models are given for plasma density and spacecraft potentials from the whole magnetosphere, as well as Titan's ionosphere. Implications and suggestions for future mission measurements are given.
