Interball Tail wave data 2-min Key Parameters

NASA's Interball Tail satellite data provides 2-minute key parameters for magnetospheric waves and plasma. The dataset likely contains magnetic spectral amplitudes at 1-4 Hz and 20 30 Hz, plasma current density spectral amplitudes across five frequency bands up to 2.1 kHz, and magnetic field components Bx and B(total). The data was last updated on March 13, 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze magnetospheric wave activity based on magnetic spectral amplitudes.
• Study plasma current density variations based on spectral amplitudes across five frequency bands.
• Correlate magnetic field components (Bx, B_total) with wave and plasma spectral data.
• Model wave-particle interactions in the magnetosphere based on multi-frequency spectral data.

Strengths

• Data originates from NASA, an authoritative space agency.
• Parameters are aggregated into 2-minute key parameters, which may simplify temporal analysis.
• Spectral data covers multiple frequency bands from 20-30 Hz up to 1.9-2.1 kHz.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
