Type of experiment | This instrument consists of two tri-axial fluxgate magnetometers mounted
on one of the two 5 m radial booms, plus a data processing unit (DPU) on the main equipment platform. The magnetometer boom lies in the spacecraft spin plane and the sensors are mounted such that the X axes are aligned with the spacecraft spin axis, and the other axes are in the spin plane. |
