            <Description>
                The Solar Wind Analyzer (SWA) of the Comprehensive Plasma Instrumentation (CPI) on Geotail is a quadrispherical plasma analyzer  
                that measures three-dimensional fluxes of ions in the range 150-7,000 eV/Q.  
                Version 6 data processing replaced version 5 processing for data after March 10,
                2006, when the CPI team started using 64 energy steps per spectrum instead of 
                the previously used 32 steps per spectrum.  The change was made to ensure that 
                even for very cold flows, the spectrum would have a sufficient number of 
                significant points to derive moments.  The change resulted in 96s spectra and 
                96s-resolution moments, vs. 48s previously.
