Scientific paper

With the recent successful launch of the STEREO spacecraft, two new solar-observing spacecraft are in operation, with remote sensing and in-situ instruments. The PLASTIC instrument reports the solar wind speed, temperature, direction and density. It also measures the mass and ionic charge state of heavy ions in the solar wind. In addition, PLASTIC detects suprathermal ions using two non-solar wind apertures. The instrument obtains mass/charge from one aperture. From the other, it measures mass, energy and ionic charge. An overview of PLASTIC data products will be presented, with a focus on heavy ion observations.
