Histogram of species abundances over the energy range 40–250 keV nucleon−1. The hydrogen peak is artificially low, both because there is a priority boundary between H and He in the flight software event-selection process that suppresses the number of protons telemetered, and because the proton spectrum is not sampled below 80keV, the lower threshold of EPI-Lo for this measurement. 3He and 4He are sampled with equal priority and over the full energy range, thus the observed ∼3:1 ratio of 3He/4He is reliable.
