Data Set Abstract This dataset contains vectors collected by the Pioneer Venus Orbiter (previously Pioneer 12) Magnetometer. The dataare provided in spacecraft coordinates. In one format, apoapsis B, themagnetometer can be commanded to return 3 vectors per minor frame. In mostothers it transmits one vector per minor frame. In one format, periapsis E,it has no words in a minor frame. At very low sampling rates at which timethe sine wave due to spacecraft spin could not be resolved. The magnetometervalues are despun, and averaged on board using a Walsh transform(square wave) in phase and in quadiatune with the sun.
