END_OBJECT = TEXT END This directory contains the Pioneer 11 Fluxgate Magnetometer data from the Jupiter encounter period between 1974-12-02 23:31:40 and 1974-12-03 11:12:16. The data set 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. 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. Additional information associated with this data set is available in the following files: file contents /CATALOG/PIONEER/P11_SAT_FGM_SUMM_5MIN_DS.CAT data set description for this data /CATALOG/PIONEER/REF.CAT key reference description /-----------------------------\ | ENCOUNTER FGM DATA | \-----------------------------/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 --------------------------------------------------------------------
