TL;DR: The Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument and Integrated Science (EMFISIS) investigation on the NASA Radiation Belt Storm Probes (now named the Van Allen Probes) mission provides key wave and very low frequency magnetic field measurements to understand radiation belt acceleration, loss, and transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global distribution of crustal magnetization discovered by the mars global surveyor MAG/ER experiment
Mario H. Acuña,John E. P. Connerney,Norman F. Ness,Robert P. Lin,David L. Mitchell,C. W. Carlson,James P. McFadden,K. A. Anderson,H. Rème,Christian Mazelle,D. Vignes,Peter J. Wasilewski,Paul A. Cloutier +12 more
TL;DR: Vector magnetic field observations of the martian crust were acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) magnetic field experiment/electron reflectometer (MAG/ER) during the aerobraking and science phasing orbits, at altitudes between approximately 100 and 200 kilometers.
Book ChapterDOI
The ace magnetic fields experiment
TL;DR: The magnetic field experiment on ACE provides continuous measurements of the local magnetic field in the interplanetary medium as discussed by the authors, which are essential in the interpretation of simultaneous ACE observations of energetic and thermal particles distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The GEOTAIL Magnetic Field Experiment.
TL;DR: The Geotail spacecraft carries a high-resolution Magnetic Field Experiment to provide magnetic field data in the frequency range below 50 Hz as mentioned in this paper, which includes dual fluxgate magnetometers and a search coil magnetometer.
