            <Description> Selected charge states and abundance ratios : 
                Alpha particle speed: Repeated from previous archive for comparison. - C6+/C5+
                and O7+/O6+ ratios: These two ratios are essentially redundant, with the former
                being ~10 times higher than the latter on average. At high values the O ratio is
                more reliable (because C5+ is getting rare) whereas at low values the C ratio is
                preferable (because O7+ gets rare). Low ratios are indicative of fast streams. -
                Fe/O abundance ratio: This is a proxy for the strength of the FIP fractionation
                if divided by the solar Fe/O ratio of ~0.05. - Average charge state of Fe:
                Weighted average of all charge states from Fe6+ to Fe16+, normally between 9 and
                12 both in slow and in fast wind. High values are a good CME indicator. - Number
                of instrument cycles that were accumulated to obtain the 3-hour average value.
                Each instrument cycle takes 13 minutes, so values of 12-14 are normal, whereas
                low values should be considered as a warning.</Description>
