| Zusammenfassung |
The special feature of the ringcore fluxgate
magnetometer on Equator-S is the high time and field resolution. The scientific
aim of the experiment is the investigation of waves in the 10–100 picotesla
range with a time resolution up to 64 Hz. The instrument characteristics and the
influence of the spacecraft on the magnetic field measurement will be discussed.
The work shows that the applied pre- and inflight calibration techniques are
sufficient to suppress spacecraft interferences. The offset in spin axis
direction was determined for the first time with an independent field
measurement by the Equator-S Electron Drift Instrument. The data presented gives
an impression of the accuracy of the measurement.
