| Abstract: | The Triana PlasMag Faraday Cup (FC) will be able to determine speed, flow angles, temperature, and density of the main solar
wind ion species with a time resolution of better than one second. Thus, the Triana PlasMag FC will enable resolution of spatial
structures as small as a few hundred kilometers as the structures convect past the spacecraft. Under typical solar wind conditions,
that size is comparable to a few proton gyroradii.
