DATA_SET_DESCRIPTION
Data Set Overview
=================
 
    The original Data Set Name was MST5IMF.  The data was
    delivered personally by Oyama.  The component values
    indicate a crossing of the neutral sheet.  The
    magnetic field is defined in terms of solar ecliptic
    coordinates with spacecraft at the center and the x
    direction positive towards the Sun, the y direction
    in the ecliptic plane, and the z direction given by a
    left handed coordinate system.  A total force value
    is also given.

ABSTRACT_TEXT The original Data Set Name was MST5IMF. The data was delivered personally by Oyama. The component values indicate a crossing of the neutral sheet. The magnetic field is defined in terms of solar ecliptic coordinates with spacecraft at the center and the x direction positive towards the Sun, the y direction in the ecliptic plane, and the z direction given by a left handed coordinate system.
