Title
In-flight calibration of the NEAR magnetometer
Abstract
The science objectives for the Near Earth Asteroid Rendezvous (NEAR) Magnetometer Experiment (MAG) are to measure a possible magnetic field of 433 Eros to 5 nT accuracy and secondarily to detect asteroid-solar wind interaction signatures. Because the MAG sensor is body mounted, achieving this accuracy required detailed analysis of spacecraft magnetic fields during cruise. Sources of magnetic conta...
