- 7abb05fb-8000-425c-8761-c85aba595205 definition "The Magnetic Fields Investigation (MFI) on WIND will investigate the large-scale structure and fluctuation characteristics of the interplanetary magnetic field, which influence the transport of energy and the acceleration of particles in the solar wind and dynamic processes in the Earth's magnetosphere. The fundamental observations of solar wind magnetic fields are important to the study of the solar wind and magnetosphere coupling process and also to the interpretation of other observational data from WIND. The MFI instrument consists of dual triaxial fluxgate magnetometers mounted on a 12-meter radial boom, and a data processing and control unit within the body of the spacecraft. The magnetometer sensors each produce analog signals proportional to the strength of the magnetic field component aligned with the sensor. These signals are then digitized and processed by a microprocessor controlled data system. Mounting the magnetometers at the outboard end and at an inboard location on the boom helps substantially to reduce contamination of the measurements by spacecraft-generated magnetic fields. MFI has a very wide field measurement capability, from +/- 0.004 nT to +/- 65,536 nT, with both automatic and commandable range-change capability. Measurement rates are: one vector per 92 seconds for key parameter data, 10.9 vectors per second for rapid data for standard analysis, and 44 vectors per second for Fast Fourier Transform data, and data from the snap-shot memory which can be triggered automatically for predefined field changes.
