Analysis of ULF Pulsation Data from Ground and Satellite Magnetometers Using a Multiuser Microcomputer System

该项目提供计算机设备，用于分析从各种卫星和地面观测站的磁力计数据中观测到的地磁脉动。该仪器将通过提供与目前在该领域广泛使用的计算机兼容的小型多用户计算机系统，减轻当前努力的一个重大限制。首席研究员与约翰霍普金斯大学应用物理实验室合作分析卫星磁力计数据。他正在开发超低频（ULF）波显示和分析软件，用于几颗运行卫星以及未来任务的磁力计数据。奥格斯堡学院过去和现在的工作，与几个机构的科学家合作，对地球磁层中超光速脉冲的理解做出了各种贡献，并为后来攻读研究生和/或从事科学和工程职业的本科生的教育和研究经验做出了贡献。这种努力的主要应用（波形分析）特别适合本科生的研究。应用包括对从南极获得的数据进行简化和分析，以及参与空间物理分析网络。这个项目继续了一个强大的本科研究计划，提高了它的生产力，并使更多的合格学生参与。

This project provides computer equipment for the analysis of geomagnetic pulsations observed in magnetometer data from various satellite and ground-based observatories. The instrumentation will alleviate a significant limitation of current efforts by providing a small, multiuser computer system compatible with those currently in wide use in this field. The principal investigator has collaborated with The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in analysis of satellite magnetometer data. He is developing ultra-low frequency (ULF) wave display and analysis software for the magnetometer data from several operating satellites as well as future missions. Past and current work at Augsburg College, in collaboration with scientists at several institutions, has resulted in a variety of contributions to the understanding of ULF pulsations in the earth's magnetosphere, and contributes to the education and research experience of undergraduates who later pursue graduate study and/or careers in science and engineering. The major application of this effort (waveform analysis) is particularly well suited to undergraduate student research. Applications include reduction and analysis of data obtained from the South Pole, and participation in the Space Physics Analysis Network. This project continues a strong undergraduate research program, increases its productivity, and enables additional qualified students to participate.
