v4 v5 7 7 8 8 The draft Bryant plots and the draft 'by-orbit' analysis are attached. 9 * The plasmasheet BM1 periods on 2727 and 2729 are centred on the time of closest approach to the model neutral sheet by any of the four spacecraft (usually C2). Note that there are no neutral sheet crossings on these orbits. 9 * The plasmasheet BM1 periods on 2727 and 2729 are centred on the time of closest approach to the model neutral sheet by any of the four spacecraft (usually C2). Note that there are no neutral sheet crossings on these orbits. See attachment:ns_dist_autumn2017.jpg. 10 10 * The first magnetopause BM1 period on orbit 2736 is centred on the time that the centroid of the four spacecraft crosses the model magnetopause assuming a ram pressure at the upper sextile of the expected ram pressure distribution (3.35 nPa for November 2017). Note that on this orbit the centroid does not cross the model magnetopause if we assume a median ram pressure (2.05 nPa for November 2017). A similar approach is used for the magnetopause BM2 period on orbit 2738. The normal approach of targeting on the median ram pressure model will be used from orbit 2740. 11 11
