Abstract

This data set has eight 6-hour fluxes (3.45-5.15, 30.55-56.47 and 120.7-227.3 MeV protons, 3.44-4.97, 10.03-21.7, 30.67-56.7 and 112.7-413 MeV/n alpha particles, and 2-6 MeV electrons), 28 count rates, and Poisson uncertainties in the fluxes and rates, as determined from the Cosmic Ray Telescope (CRT) on the Pioneer 10 spacecraft. Data are in annual files with consistent end-of-record marks. Spacecraft position data are not given in the data records but are accessible from Helioweb at http://cohoweb.gsfc.nasa.gov/helios/heli.html
