The proton distribution function of the solar wind near earth was measured with an electrostatic quarter-sphere analyzer of the S-210 experiment onboard the HEOS-A2 satellite. This equipment allowed high accuracy due to its three-dimensional resolution. A mathematical method was developed for determining the distribution function by adaptation of a tri-Maxwell model to the measured data, approximately eliminating the effect of the instrument's characteristics. This method was used for evaluation of HEOS-A2 solar wind data on a routine basis. A physical interpretation of the results is presented.
