PVO VENUS MAG RESAMPLED P-SENSOR 24SEC AVGS V1.0
This dataset contains resampled
magnetometer data from the Pioneer Venus Orbiter spacecraft beginning with
orbit 3602 (Oct 16, 1988) and continuing until the orbiter was lost in the
Venusian atmosphere (orbit 5055, Oct 7, 1992). The dataset differs from the
2 spin period averaged mag dataset from the previous orbits due to an anomaly
in the multiplexor that controlled the sampling of the magnetometer sensors.
During orbit 3602, and for the remainder of the mission, the spacecraft
downlink contained magnetometer data from only the P sensor. The P sensor is
the sensor which is aligned with the spacecraft spin axis, nominally in the
direction of the ecliptic normal.
