Function
Calculates the T96 magnetic field model on a given grid.
Syntax
GSMField = t96(Inputfile, MHDTime, LFMGrid, Linenumber);
Inputs
Name | Type | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Inputfile | string | none | input file - see Functional Details |
MHDTime | vector | none | input MHD time |
LFMGrid | field | none | LFM grid points |
Linenumber | integer | none | linenumber from a loop |
Outputs
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
GSMField | field | GSM magnetic field 3 vector |
Lastlinenumber | integer | that matches MHDTime |
Functional Details
This module reads in a 'T96.input' file for all valid MHD times in a run.
It takes a MHD time and interpolates through the input field to find the correct
inputs.
The T96 model field is calculated from sources of the geomagnetic field at specific
points in space.
Inputfile | contains 8 columns of the following data
|
MHDTime | gets the input from yrdayhr |
LFMGrid | contains the grid points on which the T96 field is computed. |
Linenumber | is the last line number of the input file that matched the MHD time. |
More about the T96.input file:
An example T96.input file is given here. The values and times contained in the input file must be propagated
from the spacecraft (WIND, ACE) to the nose of the magnetosphere.
