Popis: In this study, a numerical model of the relationship between the double probe potential with respect to spacecraft potential and the plasma parameters (density, temperature...) has been developed. A fit of the data between 1 and 80/cu cm has been performed which allows to calibrate the model with suitable parameters for the photoelectron emission. The model can then be alternatively used for either density or temperature estimate. Uncertainties and range of validity are discussed.
