The heliosphere instrument for spectra composition and anisotropy at low energy (HISCALE) experiment on board the Ulysses spacecraft, during the Jovian flyby, measured 192 distinct 61-77 keV upstream ion events of probable Jovian origin. Event-averaged characteristics such as intensities, anisotropies, power law spectral exponents, averaged event duration, and magnetic field configurations were obtained. Within 1000RJ, all ion observations >2.92 particles/(cm2srskeV) were found to be of probable Jovian origin. Evidence for velocity dispersion and convecting spatial structures was discovered through detailed analysis of individual events. Jupiter was found to be a significant source of interplanetary ions and electrons.
