In-flight calibration of the spin axis offset of a fluxgate magnetometer with an electron drift instrument
Please note that terms and conditions apply. In-flight calibration of the spin axis offset of a fluxgate magnetometer with an electron drift instrument View the table of contents for this issue, or go to the journal homepage for more Abstract We show that the spin axis offset of a fluxgate magnetometer can be calibrated with an electron drift instrument (EDI) and that the required input time in...
متن کاملThe FIELDS Instrument Suite on MMS: Scientific Objectives, Measurements, and Data Products
The FIELDS instrumentation suite on the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission provides comprehensive measurements of the full vector magnetic and electric fields in the reconnection regions investigated by MMS, including the dayside magnetopause and the night-side magnetotail acceleration regions out to 25 Re. Six sensors on each of the four MMS spacecraft provide overlapping measurements of ...
متن کاملA study of magnetic drift motion of particles around the equatorial plasmapause by using the cluster observation
On August 7, 2003 the Cluster spacecraft moved through the dayside magnetosphere. The energetic particle spectrometer on board Cluster provided measurements of an extensive range of energy. Besides, satellite measurements of geomagnetic field showed a gradient magnetic field. It is known that an inhomogeneity of the magnetic field leads to a drift of charged particles. In this paper, the drift ...
متن کاملComplete Triaxis Magnetometer Calibration in the Magnetic Domain
This paper presents an algorithm for calibrating erroneous tri-axis magnetometers in the magnetic field domain. Unlike existing algorithms, no simplification is made on the nature of errors to ease the estimation. A complete error model, including instrumentation errors (scale factors, nonorthogonality, and offsets) and magnetic deviations (soft and hard iron) on the host platform, is elaborate...
متن کاملAC magnetic field measurements onboard Cross-Scale: scientific objectives and instrument design
The ACB search-coil magnetometer for Cross-Scale will measure three components of the AC magnetic field up to 4 kHz, and one component up to 100 kHz. Turbulent and coherent magnetic field fluctuations in the frequency range of ACB play an important role in the acceleration, scattering, and thermalisation of particles; ACB observations will, together with the other instruments of the wave consor...
