Article Synopsis
- The paper discusses the Floating Potential Measurement Unit (FPMU) on the International Space Station, which measures plasma parameters using different probes.
- It details the instrumentation setup, data quality, and methodology for analyzing I-V curves to determine plasma characteristics.
- Results from measurements taken on August 5, 2006, and March 3, 2007, show that the plasma density data aligns more closely with the USU-GAIM model compared to IRI, while the temperature readings are similar to the averages provided by IRI.
