DESCRIPTION |
Time-averaged spacecraft position and calibrated 3-axis magnetic field samples in
Radial-Tangential-Normal (RTN) coordinates. The spacecraft postion is given by the radial
distance from Sun center, northward latitude above the instantaneous ecliptic plane, and
azimuth angle of the spacecraft in the instantaneous ecliptic plane with respect to the
Earth-Sun line, positive in direction of the Earth's orbital motion. The data are tagged
with latency corrected UTC and MET time stamps at the center of each interval. The RTN RDR
is derived from the Science CDR for this coordinate system with time averages computed
within 1, 5, 10, and 60 s intervals.
