dc.description.abstractA determination of the plasma potential using an electrostatic analyzer is described in which the potential difference between the instrument slit system and surrounding plasma is minimized. Data obtained from rocket‐borne instrumentation demonstrate the viability of this technique for electron fluxes between thermal energies (∼0.5 V) and suprathermal energies (many volts).en_US
