END_OBJECT = TEXT END This directory contains the Pioneer 11 Fluxgate Magnetometer data from the Jupiter encounter period. The data are stored as one ASCII table files (.TAB), accompanied by a PDS label file (.LBL) which describes the properties of the data file. 5-minute data (1974-12-02 23:31:40 to 1974-12-03 11:12:16): This data provides 5 minute magnetic field averages in both Inertial Heliocentric and System III (1957.0) coordinates, and spacecraft trajectory data in System I and System III (1957.0) coordinates. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Column Column Column Name Format Description -------------------------------------------------------------------- TIME A24 Ground received time in yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ R F5.2 Distance of Pioneer 11 from Jupiter in Rj LAT F6.1 Latitude of Pioneer 11 in System III (1957.0) LON1 F7.1 Longitude of Pioneer 11 in System I LON3 F7.1 Longitude of Pioneer 11 in System III (1957.0) BX F8.4 X component of the magnetic field in Inertial Heliocentric coordinates BY F8.4 Y component of the magnetic field in Inertial Heliocentric coordinates Bz F8.4 Z component of the magnetic field in Inertial Heliocentric coordinates BR F8.4 Radial component of the magnetic field in System III (1957.0) BTHETA F8.4 Polar component of the magnetic field in System III (1957.0) BPHI F8.4 Azimuthal component of the magnetic field in System III (1957.0) N I2 Number of data points used in averaging -------------------------------------------------------------------- 36-second data (1974-12-03 01:19:40 to 1974-12-03 09:26:29): This data provides 36 second magnetic field averages in RJ spherical coordinates and spacecraft trajectory in System III (1957.0), west longitude. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Column Column Column Name Format Description -------------------------------------------------------------------- TIME A24 Time in yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sssZ R F6.3 Distance of Pioneer 11 from Saturn in Rs LAT F7.2 Latitude of Pioneer 11 in System III (1957.0) LON F8.3 Longitude of Pioneer 11 in System III (1957.0) BR F9.5 Radial component of the magnetic field in RJ coordinates BTHETA F9.5 Polar component of the magnetic field in RJ coordinates BPHI F9.5 Azimuthal component of the magnetic field in RJ coordinates --------------------------------------------------------------------
