2.0.0 spase://SMWG/Instrument/Magsat/VMAG Vector Magnetometer 2019-05-05T12:34:56Z The vector magnetometer consisted of three fluxgate sensing elements aligned along orthogonal axes. The output of each vector sensor was converted to a digital word by an analog-to-digital converter. The outputs of all these axes were sampled essentially at the same time. Sixteen vectors were measured per second. Each vector measurement had a resolution of better than 1 nT and an absolute accuracy of better than 6 nT rms when referenced to a geocentric coordinate system. The measurement range was plus or minus 6.4E4 nT. spase://SMWG/Person/Robert.A.Langel.III PrincipalInvestigator NSSDC's Master Catalog https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/experiment/display.action?id=1979-094A&ex=2 Information about the Vector Magnetometer experiment on the Magsat mission.
