      <Description>The PLAsma and SupraThermal Ion and Composition (PLASTIC)
      investigation provides composition (M, M/q), energy spectra and directional

      information for 0.3-80 keV/q ions, including 
      * solar wind H+ and He++ in the 'SWS Small Channel' 
      * solar wind C, O, MG, Si, and Fe in the 'SWS Main Channel'      
      * and locally accelerated ions (H+, He++, He+) and pickup ions (He+ less than 40 keV/q) in the 'Wide Angle Partition'

      
      The hardware consists of entrance, time of flight, and electronics subsystems.
      Mass spectroscospy is achieved by analysis of energy vs. time-of-flight tracks.
      
      Further detail is available from from Galvin et al, Sp. Sci. Rev. (2008) 136, 437-486.</Description>
