This dataset contains magnetic field components from GEOS-2 S-300 wave experiment (search coil magnetometer) given in Instrument Spinning System in TM counts. Time resolution is 43 ms.

Bx, By, Bz: Magnetic field
Gx, Gy, Gz: adaptative gains that take values 5, 25 or 125
Dx, Dy: despin signals corresponding To the continuous magnetic field rotation

The conversion to Volt units is given by:
Bx(V) = -(Bx5.1/255.0 - 2.5)/Gx
Dx(V) = (Dx5.1/255.0 -2.5)/10.0

Users of these data are encouraged to acknowledge ESA/ESTEC (European Space Agency / European Space Research and Technology Center), DSRI (Danish Space Research Institute), CNES (Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales) for their support to the SCM GEOS team, NASA/GSFC (National Aeronautics and Space Administration / Goddard Space Flight Center) and CNR (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche) for their support to the MAG GEOS team, and the CDPP (Centre des Données de la Physique des Plasmas) for the distribution of the GEOS data, in all publications. If PI/coI are not part of the publication list, then we suggest to add Specifically, we acknowledge Roger Gendrin and Patrick Robert for use of SCM data from the GEOS mission.

Magnetic field components in the instrument coordinate system

Magnetic field components given in the instrument coordinate system
Bx, By, Bz: Magnetic field
Gx, Gy, Gz: adaptative gains that take values 5, 25 or 125
Dx, Dy: despin signals corresponding to the continuous magnetic field rotation

Note that Dx and Dy are truncated fromthe raw signal before numerisation. The conversion to Volt units is given by Bx(V) = -(Bx*5.1/255.0 - 2.5)/Gx and Dx(V) = (Dx*5.1/255.0 -2.5)/10.0
