===Dynamics Explorer 2 Instrumentation===
The Dynamics Explorer 2 carried the following instruments for data collection:
*A [[Retarding Potential Analyzer]], which measured the ion flux along the velocity vector of the spacecraft. This data was then used to determine the ion temperature and drift velocity in the spacecraft's area.<ref>[http://utd500.utdallas.edu/~coley/de2_data.html Dynamics Explorer 2] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070315074624/http://utd500.utdallas.edu/~coley/de2_data.html |date=2007-03-15 }}</ref>
*An [[Ion drift meter]], which measured the ambient ion drift.
*A [[Magnetometer]]
