Voyager 2 Uranus Magnetic Field in Uranian U1 Coordinates, Resampled, Version 1.0, 48 s Summary Data
Listed in NASA Data Portal
* Data Set Overview
Description
- ================= This Data Set includes Data from the Low Field Magnetometer (LFM) in the Solar Wind during the Uranus Encounter. The Encounter Data (1986-01-24T07:00:00 to 1986-01-25T04:00:00) have been averaged from the 9.6 s Averages to a 48 s resampled Rate and are provided in the Uranus Longitude (U1) Coordinate System. Magnetometer Data in the Solar Wind are given in Heliographic Coordinates and are also available in a separate Data Set. The Data Set consists of the following Columns:
- 1) ctime - Decimal Seconds since 1966-01-01T00:00:00.000
- 2) pdstime - ISO Standard Time Format
- 3) Spacecraft Clock Value - m65536
- 4) Spacecraft Clock Value - mod60
- 5) Spacecraft Clock Value - fds_line
- 6) mag_id - Magnetometer ID: 1=LFM, 2=HFM
- 7) Br - Radial Component
- 8) Bphi - Longitudinal Component
- 9) Btheta - Colatitudinal Component
- 10) Bmag - Magnitude of the averaged Magnetic Field Components
- 11) avg_Bmag - Average of the Magnitude of the raw Components
- 12) lambda - Magnetic Longitude, lambda=atan(Bt/Br)
- 13) delta - Magnetic Latitude, delta=asin(Bn/avg_Bmag)
- 14) rms_br - Br Pythagorean RMS Deviation of the Component Average
- 15) rms_bt - Bt Pythagorean RMS Deviation of the Component Average
- 16) rms_bn - Bn Pythagorean RMS Deviation of the Component Average
- 17) npts - Number of Points in the Average
- 18) Data Flag - A Character String which indicates Software or Spacecraft Hardware Intervention which reduces Confidence in the Data, Null Flags represent "good" Data The U1 Coordinate System is a Non-inertial Spherical Coordinate System that rotates with Uranus with a Period of 17.24 h. The Magnetic Field Components in the U1 Coordinate System are:
- Br - Radial Magnetic Field Component, along the Uranus to Spacecraft Line, positive away from Uranus
- Bphi - East Longitudinal (U1) Magnetic Field Component
- Btheta - Colatitudinal (U1) Magnetic Field Component An ancillary Data File containing the derived Spacecraft Magnetic Field is provided with these Data at a 48 s Sample Rate. These Data provide Zero Level Offsets used in the Data Processing. Spacecraft Field Data is provided in Spacecraft Coordinates. +--------------------------------------------------------+ | Parameter Characteristics | Value | ---------------------------------------------------------- | Sampling Parameter Name | TIME | | Sampling Parameter Resolution | 48.0 | | Minimum Sampling Parameter | 19770820120000.000000 | | Maximum Sampling Parameter | UNK | | Sampling Parameter Interval | 48.0 | | Minimum Available Sampling Int | 0.060000 | | Sampling Parameter Unit | SECOND | | Data Set Parameter Name | MAGNETIC FIELD VECTOR | | Noise Level | 0.006000 | | Data Set Parameter Unit | NANOTESLA | +--------------------------------------------------------+
