MMS 2 Search Coil Magnetometer (SCM) AC Magnetic Field Level 2 (L2), Burst Mode, 8192 Sample/s Data

Search Coil Magnetometer (SCM) AC Magnetic Field (8192 samples/s), Level 2, Burst Mode Data. The tri-axial Search-Coil Magnetometer with its associated preamplifier measures three-dimensional magnetic field fluctuations. The analog magnetic waveforms measured by the SCM are digitized and processed inside the Digital Signal Processor (DSP), collected and stored by the Central Instrument Data Processor (CIDP) via the Fields Central Electronics Box (CEB). Prior to launch, all SCM Flight models were calibrated by LPP team members at the National Magnetic Observatory, Chambon-la-Foret (Orleans). Once per orbit, each SCM transfer function is checked thanks to the onboard calibration signal provided by the DSP. The SCM is operated for the entire MMS orbit in survey mode. Within scientific Regions Of Interest (ROI), burst mode data are also acquired as well as high speed burst mode data. This SCM data set corresponds to the AC magnetic field waveforms in nanoTesla and in the GSE frame. The SCM instrument paper for SCM can be found at http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11214-014-0096-9 and the SCM data product guide at https://lasp.colorado.edu/mms/sdc/public/datasets/fields/.

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board (DFB) Searchcoil Magnetometer, SCM, Burst Waveform, Level 2 (L2), 0.873813 s Data

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board (DFB), Differential Voltage data:The DFB is the low frequency, less than 75 kHz, component of the FIELDS experiment on the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, see reference [1] below. For a full description of the FIELDS experiment, see reference [2]. For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].DFB burst waveform data consist of short bursts of time-series data from various FIELDS sensors. These data have been filtered by both analog and digital filters [3]. These data are pre-sorted by onboard competitive selection algorithms described in [3] before storage by FIELDS. A subset of this stored burst data is telemetered to Earth for scientist-selected regions of interest.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file have been calibrated for:* 1) DFB in-band gain* 2) DFB analog filter gain/phase response* 3) DFB digital filter phase response* 4) The search coil preamplifier gain/phase response, when applicableCalibrations for the FIELDS voltage sensor preamplifiers have not been implemented as the preamplifier response is flat and equal to one through the DFB frequency range. Corrections for plasma sheath impedance gain and antenna effective length have not been applied to voltage sensor signals. These corrections will be applied in the Level 3 DFB data products. Therefore, all voltage sensor quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of Volts. Likewise, all magnetic field quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of nT.The Level 2 voltage data products when present in these data files are expressed in sensor coordinates: [dV12,dV34] for voltage measurements. Likewise, the Level 2 search coil magnetomete data products when present in these data files are expressed in sensor coordinates: [u,v,w] for magnetic field measurements.The time resolution of the DFB burst waveform data can vary by multiples of 2^N. During encounter when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun, the DFB burst waveform data cadence is typically 150,000 samples/s. This rate is the sample rate of the analog to digital converters, ADC, and data taken at this rate do not pass through a digital filter.References:* 1) Fox, N.J., Velli, M.C., Bale, S.D. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:7. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401502116* 2) Bale, S.D., Goetz, K., Harvey, P.R. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:49. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401602445* 3) Malaspina, D.M., Ergun, R.E., Bolton, M. et al., JGR Space Phys.

MMS 1 Flux Gate Magnetometer (FGM) DC Magnetic Field, Level 2 (L2), Survey Mode, 8 or 16 Sample/s, v4/5 Data

The Fluxgate Magnetometers (FGM) on Magnetospheric Multiscale consist of a traditional Analog Fluxgate Magnetometer (AFG) and a Digital Fluxgate magnetometer (DFG). The dual magnetometers are operated as a single instrument providing a single intercalibrated data product. Range changes occur at different times on the two instruments so the gains checked each periapsis can be carried out unambiguously to apoapsis. Cross correlation of calibration parameters can separate causes of the any apparent calibration changes. Use of Electron Drift Instrument (EDI) to determine the field along the rotation axis allows accurate monitoring of the zero levels along the rotation axis. Prior to launch the magnetometers were calibrated at the Technical University, Braunschweig, except for the AFG magnetometers on MMS3 and MMS4, which were calibrated at UCLA. Both sets of sensors are operated for the entire MMS orbit, with slow survey (8 samples per second) outside of the Region of Interest (ROI), and fast survey (16 samples per second) inside the ROI. Within the ROI, burst mode data (128 samples per second) are also acquired. A detailed description of the MMS fluxgate magnetometers, including science objectives, instrument description, calibration, magnetic cleanliness program, and data flow can be found at http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs11214-014-0057-3 (DOI 10.1007/s11214-014-0057-3). Additional information can also be found at http://www-spc.igpp.ucla.edu/ssc/mms (UCLA), and http://www.iwf.oeaw.ac.at/de/forschung/erdnaher-weltraum/mms/dfg (IWF, Graz). For the purpose of creating a unified FGM Level 2 data product, burst mode data is taken from DFG and survey mode data is taken from AFG. Because AFG and DFG are cross-calibrated on an orbit-averaged basis, small differences in offset may be observed between Level 2 burst and survey mode data. Consequently, any differences are within the error of the measurement. Based on preliminary analysis of the data, the absolute error within the Region of Interest (ROI) is estimated to be no more than 0.1 nT in the spin-plane, 0.15 nT along the spin-axis and 0.2 nT in total magnitude.

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board (DFB) AC-coupled Searchcoil Magnetometer, SCM, Spectra, Low Frequency, High Gain, d-component, Sensor coordinates, Level 2 (L2), 0.873813 s Data

PSP FIELDS Digital Fields Board, DFB, SCMdlfhg data:The DFB is the low frequency, less than 75 kHz, component of the FIELDS experiment on the Parker Solar Probe spacecraft, see reference [1] below. For a full description of the FIELDS experiment, see reference [2]. For a description of the DFB, see reference [3].DFB AC spectra data consist of power spectral densities as a function of frequency and time. These spectra are averaged over both frequency and time as described in [3]. The spectra have pseudo-logarithmically spaced frequency bins with the bin central frequencies reported in the metadata. The AC spectra are duty-cycled such that spectral averaging takes place over the first 1/8 of any given NYsecond when the data cadence is equal to one NYsecond. Less data are averaged by a factor of 2^N for data cadences that are faster than one NYsecond by 2^N. For cadences slower than one NYsecond, the first 1/8 of each NYsecond of data included are averaged together to construct the reported data.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file have been calibrated for:* 1) The Hanning window used in the spectral calculation* 2) DFB in-band gain* 3) DFB analog filter gain response* 4) DFB digital filter gain response* 5) The search coil preamplifier response, when applicable* 6) The bandwidth of each spectral binNote that compensation for the DFB digital filters will introduce a non-physical positively sloped power trend at high frequencies when the non-corrected signal is dominated by noise. This effect should be examined carefully when determining spectral slopes and features at the highest frequencies. Calibrations for the FIELDS preamplifiers have not been implemented as the preamplifier response is flat and equal to one through the DFB frequency range. Corrections for plasma sheath impedance gain and antenna effective length have not been applied to voltage sensor signals. These corrections will be applied in the Level 3 DFB data products. Therefore, all voltage sensor quantities when present in these Level 2 data products are expressed by using units of Volts squared per Hertz. Likewise, all magnetic field quantities when present in these Level 2 data product are expressed by using units of nanoTesla squared per Hertz.The Level 2 data products contained in this data file are expressed in sensor coordinates: e.g. dV12, dV34 for voltage measurements. For solar orbits 1 and 2, the search coil magnetometer spectral data are rotated into a non-intuitive coordinate system with components [d,e,f]. For solar orbits 3 and beyond, the magnetic field spectral data are in expressed in search coil magnetometer sensor coordinates with components [u,v,w].To rotate from [d,e,f] coordinates into [u,v,w] search coil sensor coordinates, use the following matrix, written in IDL notation, and the following equation: spectra_uvw_vector = R ## spectra_def_vector.R = [[ 0.46834856, -0.81336422 , 0.34509170] [ -0.66921924, -0.071546954, 0.73961249] [ -0.57688408, -0.57733845 , -0.57782790]]The time resolution of the DFB AC spectral data can vary by multiples of 2^N. During encounter when PSP is within 0.25 AU of the Sun, the DFB AC spectra data cadence is typically NYsecond NYsecond [2]. Timestamps correspond to the center time of each window.References:* 1) Fox, N.J., Velli, M.C., Bale, S.D. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:7. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401502116* 2) Bale, S.D., Goetz, K., Harvey, P.R. et al., Space Sci Rev (2016) 204:49. https://doi.org/10.1007/s1121401602445* 3) Malaspina, D.M., Ergun, R.E., Bolton, M. et al., JGR Space Physics (2016), 121, 5088-5096. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016JA022344
