MAM  

Definition

  • The MAM magnetic field instrument on EQUATOR-S consists of three-axes flux-gate magnetometers, one mounted at the end of a 1.8-m boom, the other 50 cm further inboard, to reduce (and determine) the amount of interference from the spacecraft. The sampling rate is 128 vectors/s when only one of the magnetometers is utilized, and 64 vectors/s when both are utilized. Resolution is 16 bits, and ranges can be selected (automatically or manually) in steps of 4, between 250 and 64000 nT. See: http://www.mpe-garching.mpg.de/EQS/eq-s-instruments.html (en)
