Cassini Post Launch Support Grant
Lead Research Organisation:
Imperial College London
Department Name: Physics
Abstract
Contimued operations of the Cassini magnetometer instrument, including sending of instrument commands, interaction with the Cassini Project and other instrument teams, health and safety of the instrument, receipt of data, provision of processed data to the team and the Cassini community, claibration of that data as well as its archiving.
