Data Summary
MAG was on for the period 1-31 December 2021.

Spacecraft noise was observed particularly in IBS data for several periods (there was significant noise
for a total of 227 hour in the period 1-31 Dec). This noise is very clear in IBS, the source has not been
identified. We can see evidence for it being there in OBS as well, and have not got algorithms to clean
this from the data. The magnetic field data have been converted to NaNs when the noise in the data
was particularly high. The full period of missing data is listed in the appendix of this report. If you have
particular need for any data during these periods, please contact the MAG team and we see if the data
maybe suitable for release for certain applications.

3-6-7-8-9-12-13 of December cannot be released because the data have been all converted to NaNs.

The spacecraft started the month at 1.00AU and ended it at 1.00AU.

Normal Mode

MAG was on with 8Hz cadence normal mode data returned, for exceptions see below.
Operations 1-31 December Cruise phase throughout period, normal data returned

Operational None
Events of
Note
Data Gaps greater than one minute:
NaNs have been introduced during the noisiest periods because the data was highly disturbed. See
Appendix for details.

 Offset

1-31 December:
OBS By continued recovering after the reboot on the 20th of September 2021, linearly moving closer to zero.
OBS, as well as IBS, was affected by the TCM on the 2nd and the 13th of December and the SA lubrication on
the 28th of December. IBS was affected by the SA current spike event on the 1st of December too.

These offsets have been quantified and removed from the L2 data.

Appendix

Appendix A: NANs periods of the month

This table shows the NaN periods which have been introduced in the data due to SC interference.
The disturbance observed in the IBS-OBS data set is large that we cannot quantify the impact on
OBS, therefore we have set this data to NaN. If you have a need to see this data, please get in
contact with the MAG team and we can discuss this with you.
