  4. Overview 1 4 5 6 3 2 • RBSP Electric Field Waves Features • Four spin plane booms (2 x 40 m and 2x 50 m) • Two spin axis stacer booms (2x6 m) • Spherical sensors and preamplifiers near outboard tip of boom (400 kHz response) • Flexible boom cable to power sensor electronics & return signals back to SC • Sensors are current biased by instrument command to be within ~ 1 volt of ambient plasma potential. • Main electronic box (filtering, A-D conversion, sensor bias control, burst memory, diagnostics, mode commanding, TM formatting ) • EFW Science quantities include: • • E-fields:(V1-V2, V3-V4, V5-V6) • Interferometric timing: SC-sensor potential (V1s, V2s, V3s, V4s, V5s, V6s) • SC Potential : (V1+V2)/2, (V3+V4)/2 • Interface to EMFISIS instrument • Electrostatic cleanliness spec: variations of potential across spacecraft surfaces smaller than 1 Volt.

  5. Overview • Science Objective: Measure electric fields associated with a variety of mechanisms causing particle energization, scattering and transport in the inner magnetosphere. • These mechanisms include: • Energization by the large-scale convection E-field . • Energization by substorm injection fronts propagating in from the tail. • Radial diffusion of energetic particles mediated by ULF MHD waves. • Transport and energization by intense magnetosonic waves generated by interplanetary shock impacts upon the magnetosphere. • Coherent and Stochastic acceleration and scattering of particles by small-scale, large-amplitude plasma structures, turbulence and waves (EM and ES ion cyclotron waves, kinetic Alfven waves, lower hybrid, small scale magnetosonic waves,solitary waves, other non-linear structures) • EFW measurements address all 8 of the RBSP science goals with a lesser contribution to goal 6 Radiation Belt Storm Probes MDR

Major Changes Since MCR • AXB Booms Aligned on Center • AXB Deployed DAD Section is Below Antenna • AXB Sensor Folding Rigid Section (Whip) • AXB Motor Drive for On-Orbit Adjustable Lenth • IDPU Higher Data Allocation • IDPU Added Internal Foldback Limits (Redundant E-Fields) Radiation Belt Storm Probes MDR

  16. New Development Items Boom Deployment Systems Units based on ISEE, CRRES, Polar, FAST, Cluster-II, and THEMIS heritage. Changes will include thinner cable, using SPB-type motor type for AXB instead of brake. Sensor Electronics (Preamp and BEB) Units are based on Polar, Cluster-II, and THEMIS heritage. Changes will include thinner cable, possible cable driver. IDPU Power, DSP, DPU, and Burst Memory Units are based on Polar, FAST and THEMIS heritage. Changes will include interfaces to other instruments and SC, adjustments to filter frequencies and ADC rates, flight software changes. Radiation Belt Storm Probes MDR
