  • Beschreibung: Modifications of the suprathermal electron population were observed by an electron spectrometer on Spacelab 1 during electron beam injections. The instrument covered its energy range (100 to 12,500 electron volts) and field of view (≈2π) with high energy, angle, and time resolution. The measurements demonstrate the presence of strong beam-plasma interactions during high-current modes of accelerator operations. Spacecraft charging could be studied as well as processes that accelerated electrons to more than four times the injection energy.
