DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION |
This data set includes 1-minute averages of the electric and magnetic
wave spectra obtained during the period that the Galileo plasma wave
receiver was operated during the first flyby of Earth. The parameter
provided for the electric field spectrum is the electric field spectral
density in units of V^2/m^2/Hz. The magnetic field spectrum is provided
in units of magnetic field spectral density, nT^2/Hz. The spectral
information is averaged and binned into 49 logarithmically-spaced
channels from about 6 Hz to 5.6 MHz for the electric measurements and
34 channels from about 6 Hz to 75 kHz for the magnetic. Note that these
'channels' do not generally correspond to the 158 specific channels
described in the instrument description document. The reduction in
spectral resolution for this data set was performed in order to make
the set more conducive to use as a browse data set. The sources of
this browse data set are the High Frequency Receiver, Sweep Frequency
Receiver, and Spectrum Analyzer which make up the Low Rate Science
portion of the PWS. During the time interval spanned by this data set,
Galileo approached Earth from the local early morning sector, made a
close approach to Earth by passing through the magnetosphere,
plasmasphere, ionosphere, and finally exited the Earth system in the
local late morning.

CONFIDENCE_LEVEL_NOTE |
This data set includes all available Low Rate Science spectrum analyzer
data within the interval of time covered. The data included in this set
have been checked for accuracy by including only those words from the
telemetry stream which did not have parity errors based on parity bits
included with the data as part of the PWS data processing unit functions.
The magnetic spectra contain narrowband interference lines at 2.4 kHz and
harmonics. Missing data are indicated by zero.
