English: Instrument of the scientific satellite Advanced Composition Explorer. The Solar Wind Ion Mass Spectrometer
(SWIMS) is a versatile instrument that provides
solar wind composition data for all solar wind
conditions. It clearly determines, every few
minutes, the quantities of most of the elements and
a wide range of isotopes in the solar wind.
The abundances of rare isotopes are
determined every few hours, providing
information crucial to the understanding of
pickup ions and ACRs (described later).
SWIMS is extending knowledge of solar wind
composition to additional elements and
isotopes.
