Description

3-second Editor-B magnetic field data from the Geotail spacecraft.

        As of February 1 2008 the Bz component of the magnetic field has been corrected in the data set.

        The Geotail satellite has two editors onboard: The Editor-A data are only acquired with the real-time operation in Usuda Deep Space Center (UDSC) or Uchinoura Space Center (USC), Japan, while the Editor-B data are continuously recorded in the onboard tape recorders for 24 hours and are dumped to the NASA JPL Deep Space Network (DSN) stations.

Description

Data ARchives and Transmission System (DARTS) is a versatile space science data archive for astrophysics, solar physics, and solar-terrestrial physics. DARTS primarily consists of the data acquired by Japanese scientific satellites and spacecrafts. DARTS is developed and maintained by the Center of Science-satellite Operation and Data Archive (C-SODA) at ISAS/JAXA.
