An Empirical Model for Mercury's Field-Aligned Currents Derived from MESSENGER Magnetometer Data

<p>Companion dataset for manuscript titled &quot;An Empirical Model for Mercury&rsquo;s Field-Aligned Currents Derived from MESSENGER Magnetometer Data&quot; submitted to&nbsp;<em>JGR: Space Physics</em>.</p> <p>The file&nbsp;MESSENGER_MAG_Disturbance_Indices_v12.txt&nbsp;defines the Mercury disturbance index as a function of MESSENGER orbit number.</p> <p>The file&nbsp;rsuns.txt defines the&nbsp;Mercury&rsquo;s Heliocentric distance as a function of time.</p> <p>The file&nbsp;merge_magrdr_11083_15120_actidx_kt17res.txt contain the processed&nbsp;MESSENGER magnetometer vectors. This file is further broken into quintiles based on the&nbsp;disturbance index.</p>
