Abstract
The Low Energy Charged Particle (LECP) instruments on Voyagers 1 (V1) and 2 (V2) measure the differential in energy fluxes and anisotropies of low energy ions greater than or equal to 30 keV and electrons great er than or equal to 20 keV, differential in energy ion composition gre ater than or equal to 200 keV/nuc, and the integral rates of cosmic ra y protons >70 MeV (Krimigis et al., 1977). We discuss shock-accelerate d ions and latitude-associated differences between V1 and V2 during 19 91 to April 1994.
