Data Set Overview:The data from the ROSETTA PLASMA CONSORTIUM (RPC) FluxgateMagnetometer(MAG)was submitted by Ingo Richter (TM) for the RPCMAGteam. The PI of the team is Karl-Heinz Glassmeier.The data have been measured during -the LUTETIA flyby between July 7 and July 13, 2010The closest approach (CA) took place on July 10, 2010 at 15:45All magnetic field data are edited raw data. That means the datarepresent the 3 components of the magnetic field measured in counts ofthe used 20 bit ADC. Data are given in instrument coordinates. Neitherany filtering nor any calibration has been applied to the data. Anys/c generated noise and s/c caused residual magnetic fields are noteliminated.The data are sorted by the sensor (OB: outboard sensor, IB: inboardsensor)and the measurement mode (M1..M6). They can uniquely beidentified by their file names.Normally the OB is the Primary (Pri) and the IB is the Secondary (Sec)sensor. However, this order can be toggled by TCs. This feature hasbeen tested especially during the commissioning phases.In cases were the PRIMARY and SECONDARY sensor were toggled theindividual data files (OB/IB) will contain data measured withdifferent sampling rates according to the actual sampling rates ofthe PRIMARY and SECONDARY sensors. Refer to the MODE DESCRIPTIONtable below. The actual sampling rate is the only indicatorshowing which sensor is the primary and which is the secondaryone.Mode description::MODE SAMPLE RATE PACKET PERIOD PACKET LENGTH VECTOR RATEMinimum Mode M1 1/32 Hz 1024 s 32 Pri Vec 0.03125 vec/s 1 Sec Vec 0.000976 vec/sNormal Mode M2 1 Hz 32 s 32 Pri Vec 1 vec/s 1 Sec Vec 0.03125 vec/sBurst Mode M3 20 Hz 16 s 320 Pri Vec 20 vec/s 16 Sec Vec 1 vec/sMedium Mode M4 5 Hz 32 s 160 Pri Vec 5 vec/s 1 Sec Vec 0.03125 vec/sLow Mode M5 0.25 Hz 128 s 32 Pri Vec 0.25 vec/s 1 Sec Vec 0.007812 vec/sTest Mode M6 20 Hz 16 s 320 Pri Vec 20 vec/s 1 Sec Vec 0.0625 vec/sHK Mode 32 s 8 words 0.03125 vec/sFILENAME CONVENTION & Mode Coding:Due to operational constraints it might happen that the instrumentmode or the primary sensor has to be switched during a specificobservation.The actual mode and the primary sensor of the instrument can easilybe identified by analyzing the filename of the actual data files. Thecomplete filename convention is listed in the EAICD, chapter 3.1.4.The filenames for EDITED and CALIBRATED data are coded as follows: ___.RPCMAG yymmddThhmm RAW IB M1..M6 LBL CLA OB TAB CLB CLCExample: RPCMAG040528T1230_RAW_OB_M3.LBL RPCMAG040528T1230_RAW_OB_M3.TABThe filenames for Housekeeping data are coded as follows: _.RPCMAG yymmddThhmm HK LBL TABExample: RPCMAG040528T1230_HK.LBL RPCMAG040528T1230_HK.TABGeometry Information - Coordinate System:The geometry items SC_SUN_POSITION_VECTOR SC_TARGET_POSITION_VECTOR SC_TARGET_VELOCITY_VECTORprovided in the label of the data product are relative to theECLIPJ2000 frame. This reference frame is built up by EclipticCoordinates related to Equinox of Epoch J2000.Orientation: X: Pointing from SUN to Vernal Equinoxe, Y: perpendicular to X in Ecliptic Plane, Z: Perpendicular to Ecliptic plane, pointing upThe items SUB_SPACECRAFT_LATITUDE SUB_SPACECRAFT_LONGITUDEare given in the PLANETOCENTRIC coordinate system.All these geometry parameters are computed at time t:START_TIME.Distances are given in km, angles in degrees.

This data set has been reviewed by two independent teams in Spring 2012. After these reviews the data set has been accepted by the Planetary Science Archive(PSA)of the ESA and by the Planetary Data System(PDS) of NASA for long-term archiving. The data have been processed on best effort basis according to the procedures described in RO-IGEP-TR0028: Step by Step Calibration Procedure. Quality flags are attached for CALIBRATED and RESAMPLED data as described in the EAICD RO-IGEP-TR0009. Both of these are available in the DOCUMENT directory.
