Scientific paper

A large ion-composition data set consisting of 3-h averages has been assembled for the energy per charge range 0.9-15.9 keV/e. It includes all data collected by the Ion Composition Experiment on the ESA/GEOS-2 satellite from August 1, 1978 through August 24, 1985. Five ion species have been routinely identified: H(+), He(2+), He(+), O(2+), and O(+). Ions believed to be of ionospheric origin exhibit a very striking statistical correlation with solar EUV flux as measured by the F(10.7) index. The O(+) number density varies by a factor of 14 over the solar cycle.
