Cold Ion Measurements Enabled by Electrostatic Instrument Biasing: Implementation and Modeling Results This archive contains the data file for the five CPIC simulations run for paper Larsen et al 2019. [1, 2]. The data files contents and format are described. Each data file is stored in HDF5 format written with h5py [3, 4]. The files named field_potential_bias_XX_data.h5 contain the electric field components and electric potential with the following structure: + :|____Author (str [50]) :|____Bias (str [3]) :|____DOI (str [22]) :|____Date (str [14]) :|____Description (str [81]) :|____File_Creator (str [44]) :|____License (str [2140]) |____E (h5py._hl.dataset.Dataset (3, 101, 101, 101)) :|____Description (str [41]) :|____Format (str [94]) :|____Units (str [3]) |____XYZ (h5py._hl.dataset.Dataset (3, 101)) |____phi (h5py._hl.dataset.Dataset (101, 101, 101)) See the metadata within the file for units of each variable. The files named detector_bias_XX_data.h5 contain the particles collected at the simulated detector in a mix of physical and CPIC units with the following structure:
