Comparison of STAFF-SA and WBD
Magnetic components of intense whistler-mode chorus
Prepared by Ondrej Santolik
14th CAA Cross-Calibration meeting, York, 5-7 Oct 2011

Context
• No comparisons between STAFF SA and WBD using magnetic component had ever been presented. An action was pending:
• CC8 – AI-45 STAFF :To carry out a cross-calibration study between STAFF-SA and WBD as they appears to be not in good agreement with WBD above 700 Hz while WBD/Whisper shows moderately good agreement. O. Santolik was in charge of this action, to be done during the summer.

Selected intervals of WBD magnetic-filed measurements 08:44:55- 8:53:48, compared with the STAFF-SA onboard analyzed data
• WBD • BY component in the spinning spacecraft system (10s ~every 50s when Whisper is active)• FFT of time series corresponding to STAFF-SA 4-s analysis intervals • Power is averaged in frequency intervals of 27 STAFF-SA frequency channels
• STAFF-SA • despun sunward component, analyzed onboard

Results• Large differences of obtained PSD at low frequencies < 60 Hz,
probably linked to the WBD high-pass filters. -> low signal, and no same sensitivity
• Median power ratio for f > 60 Hz is 1-5. STAFF-SA shows higher levels than WBD. (bands B & C)
• Large variations (~one order of magnitude)
• Very intense waves with PSD> 10-7 nT 2/Hz give similar values for STAFF-SA and WBD.
• Proper comparison is difficult, WBD samples one single spinning component, STAFF-SA gives onboard despun data.
