ion_dists¶

heliopy.data.helios.ion_dists(probe, starttime, endtime, remove_advect=False, verbose=False)¶

Return 3D ion distributions between starttime and endtime

Parameters:	probe (int) – Helios probe to import data from. Must be 1 or 2. starttime (datetime) – Start of interval endtime (datetime) – End of interval remove_advect (bool, optional) – If False, the distribution is returned in the spacecraft frame. If True, the distribution is returned in the solar wind frame, by subtracting the spacecraft velocity from the velcoity of each bin. Note this significantly slows down reading in the distribution. verbose (bool, optional) – If True, print dates when loading files. Default is False.
Returns:	distinfo – Infromation stored in the top of distribution function files.
Return type:	Series
