Magnetic field measurements onboard the Interball Tail spacecraft are carried out by the FM-3I instrument which consists of two flux-gate magnetometers covering two different ranges: [-200, +200] nT and [-1000, +1000] nT. Besides scientific goals, the FM-3I experiment data is used to perform the attitude control of the Interball Tail spacecraft. ... August 22, 1995 . ... October 18, 1995 . Top of the page . ...

The VLTI Calibrator Selector Tool is a tool intended to assist in the selection of suitable interferometric calibrators for VLTI observations with MIDI and AMBER. It uses a model of the VLTI and its instruments to assess the fringe visibility, given the observed bandpass, the geometry, spectrum, and coordinates of the target and the time at which the observations are to be made. ... The tool offers an HTML/Java based interface and consists of two pages. ... The quality flag depends on LDD_chi2. ...
