Data Set Abstract |
This data set includes Voyager 2 Jupiter
encounter magnetometer data given in Heliographic coordinates and
averaged from the 60 ms instrument sample rate to a 9.6 second resampled
rate. The data set consists of the following columns: 1) UT of the sample
in the format yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ, 2) spacecraft clock
(m65536:mod60:fds-line), 3) magnetometer id (1 = LFM, 2 = HFM), 4) Br
(radial, Sun to spacecraft, B-field component), 5) Bt (azimuthal B-field
component, positive in the direction of planetary orbital motion), 6) Bn
(North/South B-field component, positive northward), 7) Bmag (magnitude
of the averaged components), 8) avg_Bmag (average of the magnetic field
magnitudes), 9) delta (latitude = arcsin(Bn/Bmag)), 10) lambda
(longitude = 180. - atan(Bt/Br)), 11-13) rms vectors, 14) npts (number of
points in average). All magnetic field observations are measured in
nanoTesla. All of the magnetic field data are calibrated (see the
instrument calibration description for more details). |
