During 1980-1981, the joint Soviet-Czechoslovakian plasma spectrometer ('Monitor') aboard the Prognoz-8 satellite was used to carry out high-temporal-resolution observations of processes in the solar wind and earth's magnetosphere. The objective of the experiment was to obtain continuous data on basic parameters of the solar wind, i.e., velocity, ion temperature and density, and arrival angles of the flow; as well as to investigate fast variations of the energy spectrum of the ion component of the solar wind in the interplanetary medium and at characteristic boundaries of the earth's magnetosphere. This paper describes the method of the experiment, and discusses first results relating to ion spectra and magnetospheric boundaries.
