enumeration StonyhurstHeliographic
The origin of the Stonyhurst heliographic coordinate system is at the intersection of the solar equator and the central meridian as seen from Earth. Thus, the coordinate system remains fixed with respect to Earth, while the Sun rotates (synodically) underneath it. The latitude and longitude angles, theta and phi, respectively, are given in degrees, with theta increasing towards solar North, and phi increasing towards the solar West limb. The distance r is either a physical distance in meters, or is relative to the solar photospheric radius R approximately equal to 6.96 x 10^8 m. This coordinate system is demonstrated in An alternative to the r coordinate is the height h = r - R relative to the solar surface, where h is positive above the surface and negative below the surface.

enumeration AdiabaticInvariant
A property of a physical system usually related to periodic phenomena that remains constant under slowly varying conditions.
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant.MagneticMoment
A constant of motion related to the gyromotion of a particle in a magnetic field that is either static or slowly varying with respect to the gyroperiod. The magnetic moment is usually denoted by using the lower-case Greek letter for mu and can be calculated by using mu equal to m(u^2/2B) where m is the particle mass, u is the velocity of the particle perpendicular to the constant or average magnetic field direction, and B is the magnitude of the magnetic field strength.
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant.BounceMotion
The second adiabatic invariant is associated with periodic bounce motion of charged particles trapped between two magnetic mirrors on a magnetic field line. The second invariant, termed J, is defined by using the integral J=m &int; v||*ds where m is the mass of the charged particle, v|| is the particle velocity along the field line, and ds represents elemental arc lengths along the field line. The second adiabatic invariant is conserved as long as changes in the background magnetic field occur at time scales much longer than the bounce time of the charged particles.
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant.DriftMotion
The third invariant for charged particle motion in a dipolar magnetic field is associated with drift of its guiding center in the equatorial plane. The conserved quantity, J<sub>2</sub>, is equal to q&phi; where q is the particle charge and &phi; is the magnetic flux enclosed within the particle drift path.

enumeration GeometricFactor
A measure of the gathering power of a particle detector. The geometric factor can be used to correct particle measurements by accounting for the fact that only a fraction of the source particles is able to gain entry through the aperture of a detector. For an isotopic source distribution, the geometric factor corresponds to the solid angle subtended by the aperture. In practice, determination of the geometric factor requires numerical modeling and depends on detector design and the characteristics of the source.

enumeration ThermalSpeed
A characteristic fluctuation speed of a distribution of particles about the bulk flow speed of the distribution. The value of the thermal speed depends on the dimensions and temperature of the distribution. Specific quantitative definition of thermal speed must be provided by the provider of a resource to be described in SPASE. [Note: Its quantitative definition depends on the nature of the particle distribution and how the random speed is characterized or calculated and must be specified in the description of the quantity used in the product described by the SPASE document].

Facets
enumeration ActivityIndex
An indication, derived from one or more measurements, of the level of activity of an object or region, such as sunspot number, F10.7 flux, Dst, or the Polar Cap Indices.
enumeration Dopplergram
A map or image depicting the spatial distribution of line-of-sight velocities of the observed object.
enumeration Dust
Free microscopic particles of solid material.
enumeration ElectricField
A region of space around a charged particle, or between two voltages within which a force is exerted on charged objects in its vicinity. An electric field is the electric force per unit charge.
enumeration EnergeticParticles
Pieces of matter that are moving very fast. Energetic particles include protons, electrons, neutrons, neutrinos, the nuclei of atoms, and other sub-atomic particles.
enumeration Ephemeris
The spatial coordinates of a body as a function of time. When used as an Instrument Type it represents the process or methods used to generate spatial coordinates.
enumeration ImageIntensity
Measurements of the 2-D distribution of the intensity of photons from some region or object such as the Sun or the polar auroral regions, can be in any wavelength band, and polarized, etc.
enumeration InstrumentStatus
A quantity directly related to the operation or function of an instrument.
enumeration IonComposition
In situ measurements of the relative flux or density of electrically charged particles in the space environment. May give simple fluxes, but full distribution functions are sometimes measured.
enumeration Irradiance
A radiometric term for the power of electromagnetic radiation at a surface, per unit area. Irradiance is used when the electromagnetic radiation is incident on the surface. Irradiance data may be reported in any units (i.e., counts/s) due to, for example, being at a particular wavelength, or to being a not fully calibrated relative measurement.
enumeration MagneticField
A region of space near a magnetized body where magnetic forces can be detected (as measured by methods such as Zeeman splitting, etc.).
enumeration Magnetogram
Measurements of the vector or line-of-sight magnetic field determined from remote sensing measurements of the detailed structure of spectral lines, including their splitting and polarization.
enumeration NeutralAtomImages
Measurements of neutral atom fluxes as a function of look direction often related to remote energetic charged particles that lose their charge through charge-exchange and then reach the detector on a line-of-sight trajectory.
enumeration NeutralGas
Measurements of neutral atomic and molecular components of a gas.
enumeration Profile
Measurements of a quantity as a function of height above an object such as the limb of a body.
enumeration Radiance
A radiometric measurement that describes the amount of electromagnetic radiation that passes through or is emitted from a particular area, and falls within a given solid angle in a specified direction. They are used to characterize both emission from diffuse sources and reflection from diffuse surfaces.
enumeration Spectrum
The distribution of a characteristic of a physical system or phenomenon, such as the energy emitted by a radiant source, arranged in the order of wavelengths.
enumeration SPICE
SPICE is an ancillary information system that provides scientists and engineers the capability to include space geometry and event data into mission design, science observation planning, and science data analysis software. The staff of the NASA Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility, NAIF, which is located at JPL provides SPICE support for planetary, heliophysics, and Earth science missions, see https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/index.html. This SPICE has been adapted from text on NAF hosted web pages.
enumeration ThermalPlasma
Measurements of the plasma in the energy regime where the most of the plasma occurs. May be the basic fluxes in the form of distribution functions or the derived bulk parameters (density, flow velocity, etc.).
enumeration Waves
Data resulting from observations of wave experiments and natural wave phenomena. Wave experiments are typically active and natural wave phenomena are passive. Examples of wave experiments include coherent/incoherent scatter radars, radio soundings, VLF propagation studies, ionospheric scintillation of beacon satellite signals, etc. Examples of natural wave phenomena include micropulsations, mesospheric gravity waves, auroral/plasmaspheric hiss, Langmuir waves, AKR, Jovian decametric radiation, solar radio bursts, etc.
enumeration Waves.Active
Exerting an influence or producing a change or effect. An active measurement is one which produces a transmission or excitation as a part of the measurement cycle.
enumeration Waves.Passive
Movement or effect produced by outside influence. A passive measurement is one which does not produce a transmission or excitation as a part of the measurement cycle.

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Stratosphere to a range of 80 km to 85 km, temperature decreasing with height.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Plasmasphere

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.

Facets
enumeration ActiveRegion
A localized, transient volume of the solar atmosphere in which PLAGEs, SUNSPOTS, FACULAe, FLAREs, etc. may be observed.
enumeration Aurora
A natural electrical phenomenon characterized by the appearance of streamers of reddish or greenish light in the sky, especially near the northern or southern magnetic pole. The effect is caused by the interaction of charged particles from the sun with atoms in the upper atmosphere. In northern and southern regions, it is respectively called aurora borealis or Northern Lights and aurora australis or Southern Lights.
enumeration BowShockCrossing
A crossing of the boundary between the undisturbed (except for foreshock effects) solar wind and the shocked, decelerated solar wind of the magnetosheath.
enumeration CoronalHole
An extended region of the corona, exceptionally low in density and associated with unipolar photospheric regions. A coronal hole can be an open magnetic field in the corona and (perhaps) inner heliosphere which has a faster than average solar wind outflow velocity. A region of lower than quiet coronal ion densities and electron densities in the corona or a coronal region with lower peak electron temperature than that found under quiet coronal conditions.
enumeration CoronalMassEjection
A solar event (CME) that involves a burst of plasma ejected into the interplanetary medium. CMEs may be observed remotely relatively near the Sun or in situ in the interplanetary medium. Note that CMEs are often referred to as Interplanetary CMEs (ICMEs).
enumeration EITWave
A wave in the corona of the Sun that generates shock waves in the solar chromosphere (Moreton Waves). EIT Waves are produced by large solar flare and expand outward at about 1,000 km/s. It usually appears as a slowly moving diffuse arc of brightening in H-alpha, and may travel for several hundred thousand km.
enumeration EnergeticSolarParticleEvent
An enhancement of interplanetary fluxes of energetic ions accelerated by interplanetary shocks and/or solar flares.
enumeration ForbushDecrease
A rapid decrease in the observed galactic cosmic ray intensity following the passage of an outwardly convecting interplanetary magnetic field disturbance, such as those associated with large CMEs, that sweep some galactic cosmic rays away from Earth.
enumeration GeomagneticStorm
A magnetospheric disturbance typically defined by variations in the horizontal component of the surface magnetic field on the Earth. The variation typically starts with a field enhancement associated with a solar wind pressure pulse and continues with a field depression associated with an enhancement of the diamagnetic magnetospheric ring current.
enumeration InterplanetaryCoronalMassEjection
An Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection (ICME) is a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) observed in the solar wind far away from the Sun.
enumeration InterplanetaryShock
A shock propagating generally anti-sunward through the slower solar wind, often seen in front of CME-associated plasma clouds.
enumeration MagneticCloud
A transient event observed in the solar wind characterized as a region of enhanced magnetic field strength, smooth and large-scale rotation of the magnetic field vector, low proton temperature, and low plasma beta.
enumeration MagnetopauseCrossing
A crossing of the interface between the shocked solar wind in the magnetosheath and the magnetic field and plasma in the magnetosphere.
enumeration RadioBurst
Emissions of the Sun in radio wavelengths from centimeters to dekameters, under both quiet and disturbed conditions. Radio Bursts can be Type I consisting of many short, narrow-band bursts in the metric range (80 MHz to 200 MHz). Type II consisting of narrow-band emission that begins in the meter range (150 MHz) and sweeps slowly (tens of minutes) toward dekameter wavelengths (20 MHz). Type III consisting of narrow-band bursts that sweep rapidly (seconds) from decimeter to dekameter wavelengths (500 MHz to 20 MHz) and Type IV consisting of a smooth continuum of broadband bursts primarily in the meter range (10 MHz to 200 MHz).
enumeration SectorBoundaryCrossing
A sector boundary crossing is a transit by a spacecraft across the heliospheric current sheet separating the dominantly outward (away from the Sun) interplanetary magnetic field of one hemisphere of the heliosphere from the dominantly inward (towards the Sun) polarity of the other hemisphere. Such crossings have multi-day intervals of opposite IMF dominant polarities on either side.
enumeration SolarFlare
An explosive event in the solar atmosphere which produces electromagnetic radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum at multiple wavelengths from long-wave radio to the shortest wavelength gamma rays.
enumeration SolarWindExtreme
Intervals of unusually large or small values of solar wind attributes such as flow speed and ion density.
enumeration StreamInteractionRegion
The region where two solar wind streams, typically having differing characteristics and solar sources, abut up against (and possibly partially interpenetrate) each other. The abbreviation SIR is commonly used in place of Stream Interaction Region.
enumeration Substorm
A process by which plasma in the magnetotail becomes energized at a fast rate.

enumeration Earth.Magnetosheath
The region between the bow shock and the magnetopause, characterized by very turbulent plasma.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere
The region of space above the atmosphere or surface of the planet and bounded by the magnetopause that is under the direct influence of the magnetic field of a planetary body.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Magnetotail
The region of space within the magnetosphere of a magnetized planetary body where the nightside magnetic field is stretched out in the anti-stellar direction by stellar wind interaction into a windsock-like shape. For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Polar
The region near the pole of a body. For a magnetosphere the polar region is the area where magnetic field lines are open and includes the auroral zone.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.RadiationBelt

enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.RingCurrent
One of the major current systems confined within planetary magnetospheres. The ring current circles in the magnetic equatorial plane of magnetospheres. It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6.

When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.

The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.

enumeration PDS4
The Planetary Data System, version 4 (PDS4) standard provides guidelines on how a data producer should construct a data set suitable for long-term archiving. The standard contains a number of requirements in terms of dataset structure and documentation that should allow for any PDS compliant data set to be used and understood in the long term. Each PDS4 bundle consists of two files, one containing the data and the other an eXtensible Markup Language (XML) file containing the label. PDS4 recognises four base data structures, array, table, parse-able byte stream and encoded byte stream with arrays and tables most commonly in use. The PDS4 standard is described at: https://pds.jpl.nasa.gov/datastandards/documents/current-version.shtml. The PDS4 archiving standard has been required for data archives from NASA-funded planetary missions and for small data archives since 2011.
enumeration PDS3
The. Planetary Data System, version 3 (PDS3) standard provides guidelines on how a data producer should construct a data set suitable for long-term archiving. The standard contains a number of requirements in terms of dataset structure and documentation that should allow for any PDS compliant data set to be used and understood in the long term. Each PDS3 data product must be labeled in ASCII with full details on the structure and content of the product. The label can be attached to the data file itself or detached in a separate "label" file with the suffix LBL. The PDS3 standard is described at: https://pds.jpl.nasa.gov/datastandards/pds3/standards/. Since 2011, PDS3 has superseded by the PDS4 archiving standard. However, many data files still exist that are stored by using the PDS3 standard.

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Plasmasphere

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.

In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defined that in the Solar System a planet is a celestial body that satisfies the following criteria (1) is in orbit around the Sun, (2) has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape), and (3) has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit. This definition is still controversial to this day. Many members of the community believe that Pluto, which was demoted to the status dwarf planet, should maintain its planet status.

enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Magnetotail
The region of space within the magnetosphere of a magnetized planetary body where the nightside magnetic field is stretched out in the anti-stellar direction by stellar wind interaction into a windsock-like shape. For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere

It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.
enumeration Earth.Moon

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere
The charged or ionized gases surrounding a body that are nominally bound to the body by virtue of the gravitational attraction.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.DRegion
The layer of the ionosphere that exists approximately 50 km to 95 km above the surface of the Earth. One of several layers in the ionosphere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.ERegion

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.FRegion
A layer that contains ionized gases at a height of around 150-800 km above sea level, placing it in the thermosphere. the F region has the highest concentration of free electrons and ions anywhere in the atmosphere. It may be thought of as comprising two layers, the F1 layer and F2 layer. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also known as the Appleton layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.Topside
The region at the upper most areas of the ionosphere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Stratosphere to a range of 80 km to 85 km, temperature decreasing with height.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.PolarCap
The areas of the globe surrounding the poles and consisting of the region north of 60 deg north latitude and the region south of 60 deg south latitude.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SouthAtlanticAnomalyRegion
The region where the inner Van Allen radiation belt makes its closest approach to the surface of the Earth. The result is that, for a given altitude, the radiation intensity is higher over this region than elsewhere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Thermosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Mesosphere to 640+ km, temperature increasing with height.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Troposphere

The spacecraft potential is non-zero because the spacecraft charges to the level that the emitted photoelectron flux going to infinity is balanced by the plasma electron flux to the spacecraft.
enumeration PoyntingFlux
Electromagnetic energy flux transported by a wave characterized as the rate of energy transport per unit area per steradian.
enumeration Pressure
The force per unit area exerted by a particle distribution or field.
enumeration PropagationTime
Time difference between transmission and reception of a wave in an active wave experiment.
enumeration SolarUVFlux
The amount of ultraviolet energy originating from the Sun passing through a unit area in a unit time.
enumeration SonicMachNumber
The ratio of the bulk flow speed to the speed of sound in the medium.
enumeration SoundSpeed
The speed at which sound travels through a medium.
enumeration SpatialSeries
A set of 3-D arrays that contain the values of physical parameters, i.e., magnetic field vectors, particle densities, temperatures, etc., at grid points in a spacial volume.
enumeration Spectra
A term that applies to any signal that can be measured or decomposed along a continuous variable such as the electromagnetic radiation which can be decomposed as a function of wavelength or frequency.
enumeration StokesParameters
A set of four parameters (usually called I,Q, U and V) which describe the polarization state of an electromagnetic wave propagating through space.
enumeration Temperature
A measure of the kinetic energy of random motion with respect to the average. Temperature is properly defined only for an equilibrium particle distribution (Maxwellian distribution).
enumeration ThermalSpeed
A characteristic fluctuation speed of a distribution of particles about the bulk flow speed of the distribution. The value of the thermal speed depends on the dimensions and temperature of the distribution. Specific quantitative definition of thermal speed must be provided by the provider of a resource to be described in SPASE. [Note: Its quantitative definition depends on the nature of the particle distribution and how the random speed is characterized or calculated and must be specified in the description of the quantity used in the product described by the SPASE document].
enumeration TimeSeries

enumeration TotalPressure
In an MHD fluid it is the number density (N) times Boltzmann constant times the temperature in Kelvin.
enumeration UpperHybridFrequency
Upper hybrid oscillations involve longitudinal motions of electrons perpendicular to the magnetic field. The upper hybrid frequency, &phi;<sub>UH</sub>, is governed by the relationship &phi;<sub>UH</sub>^2=&phi;<sub>pe</sub>^2+&theta;<sub>ce</sub>^2 where &phi;<sub>pe</sub> is electron plasma frequency and &theta;<sub>ce</sub> is the electron cyclotron frequency.
enumeration VCrossB
The cross product of the charge velocity (V) and the magnetic field (B). It is the electric field exerted on a point charge by a magnetic field.
enumeration Velocity
Rate of change of position. Also used for the average velocity of a collection of particles, also referred to as bulk velocity.
enumeration VolumeEmissionRate
The volume emission rate, e(r,t,l), is the number of photons emitted per unit source volume per second (photons/m^3/s), as measured along the line of sight between the source point and the observer. The Volume Emission Rate is in general a function of the line-of-sight distance, r, time, t, and wavelength, l. The Volume Emission Rate is actually not a directly measurable quantity. However, the term has been commonly used in both data product descriptions and research publications.
enumeration Wavelength
The peak-to-peak distance over one wave period.

The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body.

enumeration Planet
A planet is a large, rounded astronomical body that is neither a star nor a stellar remnant. In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defined that in the Solar System a planet is a celestial body that satisfies the following criteria (1) is in orbit around the Sun, (2) has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape), and (3) has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit. This definition is still controversial to this day. Many members of the community believe that Pluto, which was demoted to the status dwarf planet, should maintain its planet status.

When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.

Electric and magnetic field variations in time and space that propagate through a medium or a vacuum. The wave propagation direction, electric field vector, and magnetic field vector form an orthogonal triad. Waves in this category are detected by having their field quantities measured.
enumeration Gyrofrequency
The number of gyrations around a magnetic guiding center (field line) a charged particle makes per unit time due to the Lorentz force.
enumeration Magnetic
The physical attribute attributed to a magnet or its equivalent.
enumeration PlasmaFrequency
A number density dependent characteristic frequency of a plasma.
enumeration Potential
The work required per unit charge to move a charge from a reference point to a point at infinity (electric potential is defined to be zero). The electric potential of a spacecraft is often referred to as the spacecraft potential. The spacecraft potential is the electric potential of the spacecraft relative to the potential of the nearby plasma. The spacecraft potential is non-zero because the spacecraft charges to the level that the emitted photoelectron flux going to infinity is balanced by the plasma electron flux to the spacecraft.
enumeration PoyntingFlux
Electromagnetic energy flux transported by a wave characterized as the rate of energy transport per unit area per steradian.

For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Uranus.Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.
enumeration Uranus.Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Uranus.Magnetosphere.Polar
The region near the pole of a body. For a magnetosphere the polar region is the area where magnetic field lines are open and includes the auroral zone.
enumeration Uranus.Magnetosphere.RadiationBelt
The region within a magnetosphere where high-energy particles could potentially be trapped in a magnetic field.
enumeration Uranus.Magnetosphere.RingCurrent
One of the major current systems confined within planetary magnetospheres. The ring current circles in the magnetic equatorial plane of magnetospheres. It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.

Measurements of the 2-D distribution of the intensity of photons from some region or object such as the Sun or the polar auroral regions, can be in any wavelength band, and polarized, etc.
enumeration InstrumentStatus
A quantity directly related to the operation or function of an instrument.
enumeration IonComposition
In situ measurements of the relative flux or density of electrically charged particles in the space environment. May give simple fluxes, but full distribution functions are sometimes measured.
enumeration Irradiance
A radiometric term for the power of electromagnetic radiation at a surface, per unit area. Irradiance is used when the electromagnetic radiation is incident on the surface. Irradiance data may be reported in any units (i.e., counts/s) due to, for example, being at a particular wavelength, or to being a not fully calibrated relative measurement.
enumeration MagneticField
A region of space near a magnetized body where magnetic forces can be detected (as measured by methods such as Zeeman splitting, etc.).
enumeration Magnetogram
Measurements of the vector or line-of-sight magnetic field determined from remote sensing measurements of the detailed structure of spectral lines, including their splitting and polarization.
enumeration NeutralAtomImages
Measurements of neutral atom fluxes as a function of look direction often related to remote energetic charged particles that lose their charge through charge-exchange and then reach the detector on a line-of-sight trajectory.
enumeration NeutralGas
Measurements of neutral atomic and molecular components of a gas.
enumeration Profile
Measurements of a quantity as a function of height above an object such as the limb of a body.
enumeration Radiance
A radiometric measurement that describes the amount of electromagnetic radiation that passes through or is emitted from a particular area, and falls within a given solid angle in a specified direction. They are used to characterize both emission from diffuse sources and reflection from diffuse surfaces.
enumeration Spectrum
The distribution of a characteristic of a physical system or phenomenon, such as the energy emitted by a radiant source, arranged in the order of wavelengths.
enumeration SPICE
SPICE is an ancillary information system that provides scientists and engineers the capability to include space geometry and event data into mission design, science observation planning, and science data analysis software. The staff of the NASA Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility, NAIF, which is located at JPL provides SPICE support for planetary, heliophysics, and Earth science missions, see https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/index.html. This SPICE has been adapted from text on NAF hosted web pages.
enumeration ThermalPlasma
Measurements of the plasma in the energy regime where the most of the plasma occurs. May be the basic fluxes in the form of distribution functions or the derived bulk parameters (density, flow velocity, etc.).
enumeration Waves
Data resulting from observations of wave experiments and natural wave phenomena. Wave experiments are typically active and natural wave phenomena are passive. Examples of wave experiments include coherent/incoherent scatter radars, radio soundings, VLF propagation studies, ionospheric scintillation of beacon satellite signals, etc. Examples of natural wave phenomena include micropulsations, mesospheric gravity waves, auroral/plasmaspheric hiss, Langmuir waves, AKR, Jovian decametric radiation, solar radio bursts, etc.
enumeration Waves.Active
Exerting an influence or producing a change or effect. An active measurement is one which produces a transmission or excitation as a part of the measurement cycle.
enumeration Waves.Passive
Movement or effect produced by outside influence. A passive measurement is one which does not produce a transmission or excitation as a part of the measurement cycle.

Facets
enumeration ActivityIndex
An indication, derived from one or more measurements, of the level of activity of an object or region, such as sunspot number, F10.7 flux, Dst, or the Polar Cap Indices.
enumeration Dopplergram
A map or image depicting the spatial distribution of line-of-sight velocities of the observed object.
enumeration Dust
Free microscopic particles of solid material.
enumeration ElectricField
A region of space around a charged particle, or between two voltages within which a force is exerted on charged objects in its vicinity. An electric field is the electric force per unit charge.
enumeration EnergeticParticles
Pieces of matter that are moving very fast. Energetic particles include protons, electrons, neutrons, neutrinos, the nuclei of atoms, and other sub-atomic particles.
enumeration Ephemeris
The spatial coordinates of a body as a function of time. When used as an Instrument Type it represents the process or methods used to generate spatial coordinates.
enumeration ImageIntensity
Measurements of the 2-D distribution of the intensity of photons from some region or object such as the Sun or the polar auroral regions, can be in any wavelength band, and polarized, etc.
enumeration InstrumentStatus
A quantity directly related to the operation or function of an instrument.
enumeration IonComposition
In situ measurements of the relative flux or density of electrically charged particles in the space environment. May give simple fluxes, but full distribution functions are sometimes measured.
enumeration Irradiance
A radiometric term for the power of electromagnetic radiation at a surface, per unit area. Irradiance is used when the electromagnetic radiation is incident on the surface. Irradiance data may be reported in any units (i.e., counts/s) due to, for example, being at a particular wavelength, or to being a not fully calibrated relative measurement.
enumeration MagneticField
A region of space near a magnetized body where magnetic forces can be detected (as measured by methods such as Zeeman splitting, etc.).
enumeration Magnetogram
Measurements of the vector or line-of-sight magnetic field determined from remote sensing measurements of the detailed structure of spectral lines, including their splitting and polarization.
enumeration NeutralAtomImages
Measurements of neutral atom fluxes as a function of look direction often related to remote energetic charged particles that lose their charge through charge-exchange and then reach the detector on a line-of-sight trajectory.
enumeration NeutralGas
Measurements of neutral atomic and molecular components of a gas.
enumeration Profile
Measurements of a quantity as a function of height above an object such as the limb of a body.
enumeration Radiance
A radiometric measurement that describes the amount of electromagnetic radiation that passes through or is emitted from a particular area, and falls within a given solid angle in a specified direction. They are used to characterize both emission from diffuse sources and reflection from diffuse surfaces.
enumeration Spectrum
The distribution of a characteristic of a physical system or phenomenon, such as the energy emitted by a radiant source, arranged in the order of wavelengths.
enumeration SPICE
SPICE is an ancillary information system that provides scientists and engineers the capability to include space geometry and event data into mission design, science observation planning, and science data analysis software. The staff of the NASA Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility, NAIF, which is located at JPL provides SPICE support for planetary, heliophysics, and Earth science missions, see https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/index.html. This SPICE has been adapted from text on NAF hosted web pages.
enumeration ThermalPlasma
Measurements of the plasma in the energy regime where the most of the plasma occurs. May be the basic fluxes in the form of distribution functions or the derived bulk parameters (density, flow velocity, etc.).
enumeration Waves
Data resulting from observations of wave experiments and natural wave phenomena. Wave experiments are typically active and natural wave phenomena are passive. Examples of wave experiments include coherent/incoherent scatter radars, radio soundings, VLF propagation studies, ionospheric scintillation of beacon satellite signals, etc. Examples of natural wave phenomena include micropulsations, mesospheric gravity waves, auroral/plasmaspheric hiss, Langmuir waves, AKR, Jovian decametric radiation, solar radio bursts, etc.
enumeration Waves.Active
Exerting an influence or producing a change or effect. An active measurement is one which produces a transmission or excitation as a part of the measurement cycle.
enumeration Waves.Passive
Movement or effect produced by outside influence. A passive measurement is one which does not produce a transmission or excitation as a part of the measurement cycle.

A set of 1-D arrays that contain the values of physical parameters, i.e., magnetic field vectors, particle densities, temperatures, etc., at the grid points along a line though a model volume. For instance, the points of the line may correspond to the trajectory of a spacecraft through model space.
enumeration SpatialSeries
A set of 3-D arrays that contain the values of physical parameters, i.e., magnetic field vectors, particle densities, temperatures, etc., at grid points in a spacial volume.
enumeration Spectra
A term that applies to any signal that can be measured or decomposed along a continuous variable such as the electromagnetic radiation which can be decomposed as a function of wavelength or frequency.
enumeration TimeSeries
A representation of data showing a set of observations taken at different points in time and charted as a time series.

Complex Type spase:Catalog
Namespace http://www.spase-group.org/data/schema
Annotations
A tabular listing of events or observational notes, especially those that have utility in aiding a user in locating data. Catalogs include lists of events, files in a product, and data availability. A Catalog resource is a type of "data product" which is a set of data that is uniformly processed and formatted, from one or more instruments, typically spanning the full duration of the observations of the relevant instrument(s). A data product may consist of a collection of granules of successive time spans, but may be a single high-level entity.

Type restriction of xsd:string
Facets
enumeration ActiveRegion
A localized, transient volume of the solar atmosphere in which PLAGEs, SUNSPOTS, FACULAe, FLAREs, etc. may be observed.
enumeration Aurora
A natural electrical phenomenon characterized by the appearance of streamers of reddish or greenish light in the sky, especially near the northern or southern magnetic pole. The effect is caused by the interaction of charged particles from the sun with atoms in the upper atmosphere. In northern and southern regions, it is respectively called aurora borealis or Northern Lights and aurora australis or Southern Lights.
enumeration BowShockCrossing
A crossing of the boundary between the undisturbed (except for foreshock effects) solar wind and the shocked, decelerated solar wind of the magnetosheath.
enumeration CoronalHole
An extended region of the corona, exceptionally low in density and associated with unipolar photospheric regions. A coronal hole can be an open magnetic field in the corona and (perhaps) inner heliosphere which has a faster than average solar wind outflow velocity. A region of lower than quiet coronal ion densities and electron densities in the corona or a coronal region with lower peak electron temperature than that found under quiet coronal conditions.
enumeration CoronalMassEjection
A solar event (CME) that involves a burst of plasma ejected into the interplanetary medium. CMEs may be observed remotely relatively near the Sun or in situ in the interplanetary medium. Note that CMEs are often referred to as Interplanetary CMEs (ICMEs).
enumeration EITWave
A wave in the corona of the Sun that generates shock waves in the solar chromosphere (Moreton Waves). EIT Waves are produced by large solar flare and expand outward at about 1,000 km/s. It usually appears as a slowly moving diffuse arc of brightening in H-alpha, and may travel for several hundred thousand km.
enumeration EnergeticSolarParticleEvent
An enhancement of interplanetary fluxes of energetic ions accelerated by interplanetary shocks and/or solar flares.
enumeration ForbushDecrease
A rapid decrease in the observed galactic cosmic ray intensity following the passage of an outwardly convecting interplanetary magnetic field disturbance, such as those associated with large CMEs, that sweep some galactic cosmic rays away from Earth.
enumeration GeomagneticStorm
A magnetospheric disturbance typically defined by variations in the horizontal component of the surface magnetic field on the Earth. The variation typically starts with a field enhancement associated with a solar wind pressure pulse and continues with a field depression associated with an enhancement of the diamagnetic magnetospheric ring current.
enumeration InterplanetaryCoronalMassEjection
An Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection (ICME) is a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) observed in the solar wind far away from the Sun.
enumeration InterplanetaryShock
A shock propagating generally anti-sunward through the slower solar wind, often seen in front of CME-associated plasma clouds.
enumeration MagneticCloud
A transient event observed in the solar wind characterized as a region of enhanced magnetic field strength, smooth and large-scale rotation of the magnetic field vector, low proton temperature, and low plasma beta.
enumeration MagnetopauseCrossing
A crossing of the interface between the shocked solar wind in the magnetosheath and the magnetic field and plasma in the magnetosphere.
enumeration RadioBurst
Emissions of the Sun in radio wavelengths from centimeters to dekameters, under both quiet and disturbed conditions. Radio Bursts can be Type I consisting of many short, narrow-band bursts in the metric range (80 MHz to 200 MHz). Type II consisting of narrow-band emission that begins in the meter range (150 MHz) and sweeps slowly (tens of minutes) toward dekameter wavelengths (20 MHz). Type III consisting of narrow-band bursts that sweep rapidly (seconds) from decimeter to dekameter wavelengths (500 MHz to 20 MHz) and Type IV consisting of a smooth continuum of broadband bursts primarily in the meter range (10 MHz to 200 MHz).
enumeration SectorBoundaryCrossing
A sector boundary crossing is a transit by a spacecraft across the heliospheric current sheet separating the dominantly outward (away from the Sun) interplanetary magnetic field of one hemisphere of the heliosphere from the dominantly inward (towards the Sun) polarity of the other hemisphere. Such crossings have multi-day intervals of opposite IMF dominant polarities on either side.
enumeration SolarFlare
An explosive event in the solar atmosphere which produces electromagnetic radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum at multiple wavelengths from long-wave radio to the shortest wavelength gamma rays.
enumeration SolarWindExtreme
Intervals of unusually large or small values of solar wind attributes such as flow speed and ion density.
enumeration StreamInteractionRegion
The region where two solar wind streams, typically having differing characteristics and solar sources, abut up against (and possibly partially interpenetrate) each other. The abbreviation SIR is commonly used in place of Stream Interaction Region.
enumeration Substorm
A process by which plasma in the magnetotail becomes energized at a fast rate.

enumeration StonyhurstHeliographic
The origin of the Stonyhurst heliographic coordinate system is at the intersection of the solar equator and the central meridian as seen from Earth. Thus, the coordinate system remains fixed with respect to Earth, while the Sun rotates (synodically) underneath it. The latitude and longitude angles, theta and phi, respectively, are given in degrees, with theta increasing towards solar North, and phi increasing towards the solar West limb. The distance r is either a physical distance in meters, or is relative to the solar photospheric radius R approximately equal to 6.96 x 10^8 m. This coordinate system is demonstrated in An alternative to the r coordinate is the height h = r - R relative to the solar surface, where h is positive above the surface and negative below the surface.

This term could be also applied to angles between the vector and other components, for example the IMF cone angle defined as arccos(B<sub>x</sub>/B<sub>t</sub>).
enumeration DirectionCosine
The cosine of the angle between two vectors usually between a vector and one of the basis axes defining a Cartesian coordinate system. Three angles and thus three direction cosines are required to define a vector direction in a 3-D Euclidean space.
enumeration DirectionCosine.I
Projection of a vector along the first named axis of a coordinate system. Typically, the x-axis, but could be the R-axis for an RTN coordinate system.
enumeration DirectionCosine.J
Projection of a vector along the second named axis of a coordinate system. Typically, the y-axis, but could be the T-axis for an RTN coordinate system.
enumeration DirectionCosine.K
Projection of a vector along the third named axis of a coordinate system. Typically, the z-axis, but could be the N-axis for an RTN coordinate system.
enumeration EncodedParameter
A variable that uses successive bits to encode, this is bitwise encode, a set of conditions by using a composited multi-bit numeric value. A common example is a bitwise encoded flag that denotes whether various possible errors that may affect a particular measurement. For example, a bit value equal to zero may indicate the absence of a particular error condition while a value equal to one would indicate the possibility that the associated datum should be ignored or used with caution due to the same error categorization.
enumeration FieldAligned

enumeration Fit
Values that make a model agree with the data.
enumeration Group
An assemblage of values that a certain relation or common characteristic.

enumeration Current
It is the scalar quantity giving the net charge (summed over charged particle species) per unit time flowing across a given surface.
enumeration CurrentDensity
It is the vector quantity giving the net charge (summed over charged particle species) per unit cross-sectional area per unit time flowing through a given point. Measurements of current density are often provided in terms of the magnetic perturbations (superposed upon a background magnetic field, if present) associated with the current density.
enumeration Electric
The physical attribute that exerts an electrical force.
enumeration Electromagnetic
Electric and magnetic field variations in time and space that propagate through a medium or a vacuum. The wave propagation direction, electric field vector, and magnetic field vector form an orthogonal triad. Waves in this category are detected by having their field quantities measured.
enumeration Gyrofrequency
The number of gyrations around a magnetic guiding center (field line) a charged particle makes per unit time due to the Lorentz force.
enumeration Magnetic
The physical attribute attributed to a magnet or its equivalent.
enumeration PlasmaFrequency
A number density dependent characteristic frequency of a plasma.
enumeration Potential
The work required per unit charge to move a charge from a reference point to a point at infinity (electric potential is defined to be zero). The electric potential of a spacecraft is often referred to as the spacecraft potential. The spacecraft potential is the electric potential of the spacecraft relative to the potential of the nearby plasma. The spacecraft potential is non-zero because the spacecraft charges to the level that the emitted photoelectron flux going to infinity is balanced by the plasma electron flux to the spacecraft.
enumeration PoyntingFlux
Electromagnetic energy flux transported by a wave characterized as the rate of energy transport per unit area per steradian.

Facets
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant
A property of a physical system usually related to periodic phenomena that remains constant under slowly varying conditions.
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant.MagneticMoment
A constant of motion related to the gyromotion of a particle in a magnetic field that is either static or slowly varying with respect to the gyroperiod. The magnetic moment is usually denoted by using the lower-case Greek letter for mu and can be calculated by using mu equal to m(u^2/2B) where m is the particle mass, u is the velocity of the particle perpendicular to the constant or average magnetic field direction, and B is the magnitude of the magnetic field strength.
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant.BounceMotion
The second adiabatic invariant is associated with periodic bounce motion of charged particles trapped between two magnetic mirrors on a magnetic field line. The second invariant, termed J, is defined by using the integral J=m &int; v||*ds where m is the mass of the charged particle, v|| is the particle velocity along the field line, and ds represents elemental arc lengths along the field line. The second adiabatic invariant is conserved as long as changes in the background magnetic field occur at time scales much longer than the bounce time of the charged particles.
enumeration AdiabaticInvariant.DriftMotion
The third invariant for charged particle motion in a dipolar magnetic field is associated with drift of its guiding center in the equatorial plane. The conserved quantity, J<sub>2</sub>, is equal to q&phi; where q is the particle charge and &phi; is the magnetic flux enclosed within the particle drift path.
enumeration ArrivalDirection
An angular measure of the direction from which an energetic particle or photon was incident on a detector. The angles may be measured in any coordinate system.
enumeration AtomicNumberDetected
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom as determined by a detector.
enumeration AverageChargeState
A measure of the composite deficit (positive) or excess (negative) of electrons with respect to protons.
enumeration ChargeFlux
The number of ionized particles passing through a unit area per unit time, for instance as measured by a Faraday cup.
enumeration ChargeState
Charge of a fully or partially stripped ion, in units of the charge of a proton. Charge state of a bare proton is equal to one.
enumeration CountRate
The number of events per unit time.
enumeration Counts
The number of detection events occurring in a detector over the detector accumulation time.
enumeration Current
It is the scalar quantity giving the net charge (summed over charged particle species) per unit time flowing across a given surface.
enumeration CurrentDensity
It is the vector quantity giving the net charge (summed over charged particle species) per unit cross-sectional area per unit time flowing through a given point. Measurements of current density are often provided in terms of the magnetic perturbations (superposed upon a background magnetic field, if present) associated with the current density.
enumeration DynamicPressure
Dynamic pressure is a measure of the kinetic energy per unit volume of a fluid. For instance, the solar wind dynamic pressure or ram pressure for a purely proton plasma is equal to m<sub>p</sub> n V<sup>2</sup> where m<sub>p</sub> is the proton mass, n is the proton number density, and V is the solar wind speed.
enumeration Energy
The capacity for doing work as measured by the capability of doing work (potential energy) or the conversion of this capability to motion (kinetic energy).
enumeration Entropy
A function of thermodynamic quantity, such as temperature, pressure, or composition, that is a measure of the energy that is not available for work during a thermodynamic process. It is often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.
enumeration EnergyDensity
The amount of energy per unit volume.
enumeration EnergyFlux
The amount of energy passing through a unit area in a unit time.
enumeration EnergyPerCharge
The kinetic energy, E, per unit net charge, q, that is E/q, for an electron or an ionized atom, molecule, or dust particle.
enumeration FlowSpeed
The magnitude of the flow velocity.
enumeration FlowVelocity
The mean velocity of all particles in the flow, also referred to as bulk velocity or average flow velocity.
enumeration Fluence
The time integral of a flux. A fluence is a not a measurement of flux per unit time.
enumeration GeometricFactor
A measure of the gathering power of a particle detector. The geometric factor can be used to correct particle measurements by accounting for the fact that only a fraction of the source particles is able to gain entry through the aperture of a detector. For an isotopic source distribution, the geometric factor corresponds to the solid angle subtended by the aperture. In practice, determination of the geometric factor requires numerical modeling and depends on detector design and the characteristics of the source.
enumeration Gyrofrequency
The number of gyrations around a magnetic guiding center (field line) a charged particle makes per unit time due to the Lorentz force.
enumeration HeatFlux
Flow of thermal energy through a gas or plasma typically computed as third moment of a distribution function.
enumeration LShell
The L-shell is the magnetic equatorial radius (in units of planetary radii) of a dipole magnetic field line. For instance, if the L-shell value equals 6 say at Earth, the magnetic field lines cross the magnetic equator at six Earth radii. The L-shell concept can be applied generally to any magnetized planet or satellite with a dominant dipolar magnetic field moment.
enumeration Mass
The measure of inertia (mass) of individual objects (e.g., aerosols).
enumeration MassDensity
The mass of particles per unit volume.
enumeration MassNumber
The total number of protons and neutrons (together known as nucleons) in an atomic nucleus.
enumeration MassPerCharge
The mass, m, per unit net charge, q, that is m/q, for an electron or an ionized atom, molecule, or dust particle.
enumeration NumberDensity
The number of particles per unit volume.
enumeration NumberFlux
The number of particles passing a unit area in unit time, possibly also per unit energy (or equivalent) and/or per unit look direction.
enumeration ParticleRadius
The mean radius for a Gaussian distribution of particles with an axial ratio of 2 and a distribution width that varies as 0.5 radius. A value of zero means no cloud was detected.
enumeration ParticleRigidity
The particle momentum per unit charge. The particle Rigidity, R, is equal to pc/Ze.
enumeration PhaseSpaceDensity
The number of particles per unit volume in the six-dimensional space of position and velocity.
enumeration PlasmaFrequency
A number density dependent characteristic frequency of a plasma.
enumeration Pressure
The force per unit area exerted by a particle distribution or field.
enumeration SonicMachNumber
The ratio of the bulk flow speed to the speed of sound in the medium.
enumeration SoundSpeed
The speed at which sound travels through a medium.
enumeration Temperature
A measure of the kinetic energy of random motion with respect to the average. Temperature is properly defined only for an equilibrium particle distribution (Maxwellian distribution).
enumeration ThermalSpeed
A characteristic fluctuation speed of a distribution of particles about the bulk flow speed of the distribution. The value of the thermal speed depends on the dimensions and temperature of the distribution. Specific quantitative definition of thermal speed must be provided by the provider of a resource to be described in SPASE. [Note: Its quantitative definition depends on the nature of the particle distribution and how the random speed is characterized or calculated and must be specified in the description of the quantity used in the product described by the SPASE document].
enumeration Velocity
Rate of change of position. Also used for the average velocity of a collection of particles, also referred to as bulk velocity.

Facets
enumeration Absorption
Decrease of radiant energy (relative to the background continuum spectrum).
enumeration ACElectricField
Alternating electric field component of a wave.
enumeration ACMagneticField
Alternating magnetic field component of a wave.
enumeration Albedo
The ratio of reflected radiation from the surface to incident radiation upon it.
enumeration DopplerFrequency
Change in the frequency of a propagating wave due to motion of the source, the observer, the reflector, or the propagation medium.
enumeration Emissivity
The energy emitted spontaneously per unit bandwidth (typically frequency) per unit time per unit mass of source. Emissivity is usually integrated over all directions/solid angles.
enumeration EnergyFlux
The amount of energy passing through a unit area in a unit time.
enumeration EquivalentWidth
The spectral width of a total absorption line having the amount of absorbed radiant energy being equivalent to that in an observed absorption line.
enumeration Frequency
The number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time.
enumeration Gyrofrequency
The number of gyrations around a magnetic guiding center (field line) a charged particle makes per unit time due to the Lorentz force.
enumeration Intensity
The measurement of radiant or wave energy per unit detector area per unit bandwidth per unit solid angle per unit time.
enumeration LineDepth
The measure of the amount of absorption below the continuum (depth) in a particular wavelength or frequency in an absorption spectrum.
enumeration LowerHybridFrequency
Lower hybrid oscillations involve longitudinal motions of electrons and ions in a magnetized plasma. The propagation of lower hybrid waves must be close to perpendicular to the background magnetic field in so that electrons cannot move along field lines thus preventing wave growth. The lower hybrid frequency, &phi;<sub>LH</sub>, can be calculated by using &phi;<sub>LH</sub>=[(&omega;<sub>ce</sub>&omega;<sub>ci</sub>)<sup>-1</sup>+&phi;<sub>pi</sub><sup>-2</sup>]<sup>-1/2</sup> where &omega;<sub>ce</sub> and &omega;<sub>ci</sub> are the electron and ion cyclotron frequencies, respectively, and $phi;<sub>LH</sub> is the ion plasma frequency.
enumeration MagneticField
A region of space near a magnetized body where magnetic forces can be detected (as measured by methods such as Zeeman splitting, etc.).
enumeration ModeAmplitude
In helioseismology the magnitude of oscillation of waves of a particular geometry.
enumeration PlasmaFrequency
A number density dependent characteristic frequency of a plasma.
enumeration Polarization
Direction of the electric vector of an electromagnetic wave. The wave can be linearly polarized in any direction perpendicular to the direction of travel, circularly polarized (clockwise or counterclockwise), unpolarized, or mixtures of the above.
enumeration PoyntingFlux
Electromagnetic energy flux transported by a wave characterized as the rate of energy transport per unit area per steradian.
enumeration PropagationTime
Time difference between transmission and reception of a wave in an active wave experiment.
enumeration StokesParameters
A set of four parameters (usually called I,Q, U and V) which describe the polarization state of an electromagnetic wave propagating through space.
enumeration UpperHybridFrequency
Upper hybrid oscillations involve longitudinal motions of electrons perpendicular to the magnetic field. The upper hybrid frequency, &phi;<sub>UH</sub>, is governed by the relationship &phi;<sub>UH</sub>^2=&phi;<sub>pe</sub>^2+&theta;<sub>ce</sub>^2 where &phi;<sub>pe</sub> is electron plasma frequency and &theta;<sub>ce</sub> is the electron cyclotron frequency.
enumeration Velocity
Rate of change of position. Also used for the average velocity of a collection of particles, also referred to as bulk velocity.
enumeration VolumeEmissionRate
The volume emission rate, e(r,t,l), is the number of photons emitted per unit source volume per second (photons/m^3/s), as measured along the line of sight between the source point and the observer. The Volume Emission Rate is in general a function of the line-of-sight distance, r, time, t, and wavelength, l. The Volume Emission Rate is actually not a directly measurable quantity. However, the term has been commonly used in both data product descriptions and research publications.
enumeration Wavelength
The peak-to-peak distance over one wave period.

enumeration DataQuality
An ancillary parameter that denotes the standard or degree of accuracy, trustworthiness, or usefulness of another parameter.
enumeration Housekeeping
Parameters that indicate the status or health state of instruments or monitoring devices as measured in physical units such as that for current, voltage, or temperature. Housekeeping data can be analyzed to determine whether instruments are working correctly and the knowledge of their values may be used to avoid errors or even device failures.
enumeration InstrumentMode
An indication of a state (mode) in which the instrument is operating. How a mode influences the interpretation and representation of data is described in instrument related documentation.
enumeration Orientation
The specification of the directional alignment of an object or measurement in a reference coordinate system. The orientation such as a spacecraft spin axis attitude is usually expressed as one or more angles relative to the basis axes of some specified physical space usually together with the date/time of the observation.
enumeration Other
Not classified with more specific terms. The context of its usage may be described in related text.
enumeration Positional
The specification of the location of an object or measurement within a reference coordinate system. The position is usually expressed as a set of values corresponding to the location along a set of orthogonal axes together with the date/time of the observation.
enumeration Remark
A notice, comment, or observation.
enumeration RotationMatrix
A tensor that is used to perform vector data transformation from one coordinate system to another.
enumeration SpinPeriod
The time required for an object such as a spacecraft or planet to perform one full rotation in a given frame of reference.
enumeration SpinPhase
An angular based or normalized parameter that specifies the spin state of an object such as a spacecraft or planet in a specific coordinate system usually together with the date/time of the observation.
enumeration SpinRate
The angular rate of change of the spin angle of an object such as a spacecraft or planet.
enumeration Telemetry
Parameters that include full packets of data from monitoring devices or the memory addresses of datum within telemetry packets. The data comprising telemetry packets are typically expressed by using non-physical engineering units and may be used to express a variety of device operating conditions such as command acceptance/execution, housekeeping, event characterization, memory dumps, and science data. Telemetry packets may be raw or unpacked.
enumeration Temporal
Pertaining to time.
enumeration Velocity
Rate of change of position. Also used for the average velocity of a collection of particles, also referred to as bulk velocity.
enumeration WebResource

The region of space within the magnetosphere of a magnetized planetary body where the nightside magnetic field is stretched out in the anti-stellar direction by stellar wind interaction into a windsock-like shape. For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.

It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.
enumeration Earth.Moon
The only natural satellite of the Earth.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface
The gaseous and possibly ionized environment of a body extending from the surface to some specified altitude. For the Earth, this altitude is 2000 km.

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.FRegion
A layer that contains ionized gases at a height of around 150-800 km above sea level, placing it in the thermosphere. the F region has the highest concentration of free electrons and ions anywhere in the atmosphere. It may be thought of as comprising two layers, the F1 layer and F2 layer. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also known as the Appleton layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.Topside
The region at the upper most areas of the ionosphere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Stratosphere to a range of 80 km to 85 km, temperature decreasing with height.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Plasmasphere

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.PolarCap
The areas of the globe surrounding the poles and consisting of the region north of 60 deg north latitude and the region south of 60 deg south latitude.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SouthAtlanticAnomalyRegion
The region where the inner Van Allen radiation belt makes its closest approach to the surface of the Earth. The result is that, for a given altitude, the radiation intensity is higher over this region than elsewhere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.

An accessible portion of another resource. A Granule may be composed of one or more physical pieces (files) which are considered inseparable. For example, a data storage format that maintains metadata and binary data in separate, but tightly coupled files. Granules should not be used to group files that have simple relationships or which are associated through a parent resource. For example, each file containing a time interval data for a Numerical Data resource would each be considered a Granule. The ParentID of a Granule resource must be a NumericalData resource.

enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Magnetotail
The region of space within the magnetosphere of a magnetized planetary body where the nightside magnetic field is stretched out in the anti-stellar direction by stellar wind interaction into a windsock-like shape. For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.
enumeration Earth.Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere

It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.
enumeration Earth.Moon

enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.FRegion
A layer that contains ionized gases at a height of around 150-800 km above sea level, placing it in the thermosphere. the F region has the highest concentration of free electrons and ions anywhere in the atmosphere. It may be thought of as comprising two layers, the F1 layer and F2 layer. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also known as the Appleton layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Ionosphere.Topside
The region at the upper most areas of the ionosphere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Stratosphere to a range of 80 km to 85 km, temperature decreasing with height.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.PolarCap
The areas of the globe surrounding the poles and consisting of the region north of 60 deg north latitude and the region south of 60 deg south latitude.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SouthAtlanticAnomalyRegion
The region where the inner Van Allen radiation belt makes its closest approach to the surface of the Earth. The result is that, for a given altitude, the radiation intensity is higher over this region than elsewhere.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Thermosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Mesosphere to 640+ km, temperature increasing with height.
enumeration Earth.NearSurface.Troposphere
The lowest layer of the atmosphere which begins at the surface and extends to between 7 km (4.4 mi) at the poles and 17 km (10.6 mi) at the equator, with some variation due to weather factors.

enumeration Planet
A planet is a large, rounded astronomical body that is neither a star nor a stellar remnant. In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defined that in the Solar System a planet is a celestial body that satisfies the following criteria (1) is in orbit around the Sun, (2) has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape), and (3) has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit. This definition is still controversial to this day. Many members of the community believe that Pluto, which was demoted to the status dwarf planet, should maintain its planet status.

Measurements of current density are often provided in terms of the magnetic perturbations (superposed upon a background magnetic field, if present) associated with the current density.
enumeration DopplerFrequency
Change in the frequency of a propagating wave due to motion of the source, the observer, the reflector, or the propagation medium.
enumeration DynamicPressure
Dynamic pressure is a measure of the kinetic energy per unit volume of a fluid. For instance, the solar wind dynamic pressure or ram pressure for a purely proton plasma is equal to m<sub>p</sub> n V<sup>2</sup> where m<sub>p</sub> is the proton mass, n is the proton number density, and V is the solar wind speed.
enumeration Electric
The physical attribute that exerts an electrical force.
enumeration Electromagnetic
Electric and magnetic field variations in time and space that propagate through a medium or a vacuum. The wave propagation direction, electric field vector, and magnetic field vector form an orthogonal triad. Waves in this category are detected by having their field quantities measured.
enumeration Emissivity
The energy emitted spontaneously per unit bandwidth (typically frequency) per unit time per unit mass of source. Emissivity is usually integrated over all directions/solid angles.
enumeration Energy
The capacity for doing work as measured by the capability of doing work (potential energy) or the conversion of this capability to motion (kinetic energy).

enumeration EnergyFlux
The amount of energy passing through a unit area in a unit time.
enumeration EnergyPerCharge
The kinetic energy, E, per unit net charge, q, that is E/q, for an electron or an ionized atom, molecule, or dust particle.
enumeration Entropy
A function of thermodynamic quantity, such as temperature, pressure, or composition, that is a measure of the energy that is not available for work during a thermodynamic process. It is often interpreted as the degree of disorder or randomness in the system.
enumeration EquivalentWidth
The spectral width of a total absorption line having the amount of absorbed radiant energy being equivalent to that in an observed absorption line.
enumeration FlowSpeed
The magnitude of the flow velocity.
enumeration FlowVelocity
The mean velocity of all particles in the flow, also referred to as bulk velocity or average flow velocity.
enumeration Fluence
The time integral of a flux. A fluence is a not a measurement of flux per unit time.
enumeration Frequency
The number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time.
enumeration FrequencyToGyrofrequencyRatio
The ratio of the characteristic frequency of a medium to gyrofrequency of a particle.
enumeration GeometricFactor
A measure of the gathering power of a particle detector. The geometric factor can be used to correct particle measurements by accounting for the fact that only a fraction of the source particles is able to gain entry through the aperture of a detector. For an isotopic source distribution, the geometric factor corresponds to the solid angle subtended by the aperture. In practice, determination of the geometric factor requires numerical modeling and depends on detector design and the characteristics of the source.
enumeration Gyrofrequency
The number of gyrations around a magnetic guiding center (field line) a charged particle makes per unit time due to the Lorentz force.
enumeration HeatFlux
Flow of thermal energy through a gas or plasma typically computed as third moment of a distribution function.
enumeration IMFClockAngle
The clockwise angle of the direction of interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) measured in the plane of the body pole perpendicular to the line between the body and the Sun.
enumeration Intensity
The measurement of radiant or wave energy per unit detector area per unit bandwidth per unit solid angle per unit time.
enumeration LShell
The L-shell is the magnetic equatorial radius (in units of planetary radii) of a dipole magnetic field line. For instance, if the L-shell value equals 6 say at Earth, the magnetic field lines cross the magnetic equator at six Earth radii. The L-shell concept can be applied generally to any magnetized planet or satellite with a dominant dipolar magnetic field moment.
enumeration LineDepth
The measure of the amount of absorption below the continuum (depth) in a particular wavelength or frequency in an absorption spectrum.
enumeration Lines
A set of 1-D arrays that contain the values of physical parameters, i.e., magnetic field vectors, particle densities, temperatures, etc., at the grid points along a line though a model volume. For instance, the points of the line may correspond to the trajectory of a spacecraft through model space.
enumeration LowerHybridFrequency
Lower hybrid oscillations involve longitudinal motions of electrons and ions in a magnetized plasma. The propagation of lower hybrid waves must be close to perpendicular to the background magnetic field in so that electrons cannot move along field lines thus preventing wave growth. The lower hybrid frequency, &phi;<sub>LH</sub>, can be calculated by using &phi;<sub>LH</sub>=[(&omega;<sub>ce</sub>&omega;<sub>ci</sub>)<sup>-1</sup>+&phi;<sub>pi</sub><sup>-2</sup>]<sup>-1/2</sup> where &omega;<sub>ce</sub> and &omega;<sub>ci</sub> are the electron and ion cyclotron frequencies, respectively, and $phi;<sub>LH</sub> is the ion plasma frequency.

enumeration PlasmaFrequency
A number density dependent characteristic frequency of a plasma.
enumeration Polarization
Direction of the electric vector of an electromagnetic wave. The wave can be linearly polarized in any direction perpendicular to the direction of travel, circularly polarized (clockwise or counterclockwise), unpolarized, or mixtures of the above.

The spacecraft potential is non-zero because the spacecraft charges to the level that the emitted photoelectron flux going to infinity is balanced by the plasma electron flux to the spacecraft.
enumeration PoyntingFlux
Electromagnetic energy flux transported by a wave characterized as the rate of energy transport per unit area per steradian.
enumeration Pressure
The force per unit area exerted by a particle distribution or field.
enumeration PropagationTime
Time difference between transmission and reception of a wave in an active wave experiment.
enumeration SolarUVFlux
The amount of ultraviolet energy originating from the Sun passing through a unit area in a unit time.
enumeration SonicMachNumber
The ratio of the bulk flow speed to the speed of sound in the medium.
enumeration SoundSpeed

enumeration SpatialSeries
A set of 3-D arrays that contain the values of physical parameters, i.e., magnetic field vectors, particle densities, temperatures, etc., at grid points in a spacial volume.
enumeration Spectra
A term that applies to any signal that can be measured or decomposed along a continuous variable such as the electromagnetic radiation which can be decomposed as a function of wavelength or frequency.
enumeration StokesParameters
A set of four parameters (usually called I,Q, U and V) which describe the polarization state of an electromagnetic wave propagating through space.
enumeration Temperature
A measure of the kinetic energy of random motion with respect to the average. Temperature is properly defined only for an equilibrium particle distribution (Maxwellian distribution).
enumeration ThermalSpeed
A characteristic fluctuation speed of a distribution of particles about the bulk flow speed of the distribution. The value of the thermal speed depends on the dimensions and temperature of the distribution. Specific quantitative definition of thermal speed must be provided by the provider of a resource to be described in SPASE. [Note: Its quantitative definition depends on the nature of the particle distribution and how the random speed is characterized or calculated and must be specified in the description of the quantity used in the product described by the SPASE document].
enumeration TimeSeries
A representation of data showing a set of observations taken at different points in time and charted as a time series.
enumeration TotalPressure
In an MHD fluid it is the number density (N) times Boltzmann constant times the temperature in Kelvin.
enumeration UpperHybridFrequency
Upper hybrid oscillations involve longitudinal motions of electrons perpendicular to the magnetic field. The upper hybrid frequency, &phi;<sub>UH</sub>, is governed by the relationship &phi;<sub>UH</sub>^2=&phi;<sub>pe</sub>^2+&theta;<sub>ce</sub>^2 where &phi;<sub>pe</sub> is electron plasma frequency and &theta;<sub>ce</sub> is the electron cyclotron frequency.
enumeration VCrossB
The cross product of the charge velocity (V) and the magnetic field (B). It is the electric field exerted on a point charge by a magnetic field.
enumeration Velocity
Rate of change of position. Also used for the average velocity of a collection of particles, also referred to as bulk velocity.
enumeration VolumeEmissionRate
The volume emission rate, e(r,t,l), is the number of photons emitted per unit source volume per second (photons/m^3/s), as measured along the line of sight between the source point and the observer. The Volume Emission Rate is in general a function of the line-of-sight distance, r, time, t, and wavelength, l. The Volume Emission Rate is actually not a directly measurable quantity. However, the term has been commonly used in both data product descriptions and research publications.
enumeration Wavelength
The peak-to-peak distance over one wave period.

enumeration MagneticMoment
A constant of motion related to the gyromotion of a particle in a magnetic field that is either static or slowly varying with respect to the gyroperiod. The magnetic moment is usually denoted by using the lower-case Greek letter for mu and can be calculated by using mu equal to m(u^2/2B) where m is the particle mass, u is the velocity of the particle perpendicular to the constant or average magnetic field direction, and B is the magnitude of the magnetic field strength.
enumeration BounceMotion
The second adiabatic invariant is associated with periodic bounce motion of charged particles trapped between two magnetic mirrors on a magnetic field line. The second invariant, termed J, is defined by using the integral J=m &int; v||*ds where m is the mass of the charged particle, v|| is the particle velocity along the field line, and ds represents elemental arc lengths along the field line. The second adiabatic invariant is conserved as long as changes in the background magnetic field occur at time scales much longer than the bounce time of the charged particles.
enumeration DriftMotion
The third invariant for charged particle motion in a dipolar magnetic field is associated with drift of its guiding center in the equatorial plane. The conserved quantity, J<sub>2</sub>, is equal to q&phi; where q is the particle charge and &phi; is the magnetic flux enclosed within the particle drift path.

enumeration Magnetosheath
The region between the bow shock and the magnetopause, characterized by very turbulent plasma.
enumeration Magnetosphere
The region of space above the atmosphere or surface of the planet and bounded by the magnetopause that is under the direct influence of the magnetic field of a planetary body.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Magnetotail
The region of space within the magnetosphere of a magnetized planetary body where the nightside magnetic field is stretched out in the anti-stellar direction by stellar wind interaction into a windsock-like shape. For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Polar
The region near the pole of a body. For a magnetosphere the polar region is the area where magnetic field lines are open and includes the auroral zone.
enumeration Magnetosphere.RadiationBelt
The region within a magnetosphere where high-energy particles could potentially be trapped in a magnetic field.
enumeration Magnetosphere.RingCurrent
One of the major current systems confined within planetary magnetospheres. The ring current circles in the magnetic equatorial plane of magnetospheres. It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.
enumeration Moon
The only natural satellite of the Earth.
enumeration NearSurface
The gaseous and possibly ionized environment of a body extending from the surface to some specified altitude. For the Earth, this altitude is 2000 km.
enumeration NearSurface.Atmosphere
The neutral gases surrounding a body that extends from the surface and is bound to the body by virtue of the gravitational attraction.
enumeration NearSurface.AuroralRegion
The region in the atmospheric where electrically-charged particles bombarding the upper atmosphere of a planet in the presence of a magnetic field produce an optical phenomenon.
enumeration NearSurface.EquatorialRegion
A region centered on the equator and limited in latitude by approximately 23 deg north and south of the equator.
enumeration NearSurface.Ionosphere
The charged or ionized gases surrounding a body that are nominally bound to the body by virtue of the gravitational attraction.
enumeration NearSurface.Ionosphere.DRegion
The layer of the ionosphere that exists approximately 50 km to 95 km above the surface of the Earth. One of several layers in the ionosphere.
enumeration NearSurface.Ionosphere.ERegion
A layer of ionized gas occurring at 90 km to 150 km above the ground. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also called the Kennelly-Heaviside layer.
enumeration NearSurface.Ionosphere.FRegion
A layer that contains ionized gases at a height of around 150-800 km above sea level, placing it in the thermosphere. the F region has the highest concentration of free electrons and ions anywhere in the atmosphere. It may be thought of as comprising two layers, the F1 layer and F2 layer. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also known as the Appleton layer.
enumeration NearSurface.Ionosphere.Topside
The region at the upper most areas of the ionosphere.
enumeration NearSurface.Mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Stratosphere to a range of 80 km to 85 km, temperature decreasing with height.
enumeration NearSurface.MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration NearSurface.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration NearSurface.PolarCap
The areas of the globe surrounding the poles and consisting of the region north of 60 deg north latitude and the region south of 60 deg south latitude.
enumeration NearSurface.SouthAtlanticAnomalyRegion
The region where the inner Van Allen radiation belt makes its closest approach to the surface of the Earth. The result is that, for a given altitude, the radiation intensity is higher over this region than elsewhere.
enumeration NearSurface.Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration NearSurface.SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.
enumeration NearSurface.Thermosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Mesosphere to 640+ km, temperature increasing with height.
enumeration NearSurface.Troposphere
The lowest layer of the atmosphere which begins at the surface and extends to between 7 km (4.4 mi) at the poles and 17 km (10.6 mi) at the equator, with some variation due to weather factors.
enumeration Surface
The outermost area of a solid object.

enumeration Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Polar
The region near the pole of a body. For a magnetosphere the polar region is the area where magnetic field lines are open and includes the auroral zone.
enumeration Magnetosphere.RadiationBelt
The region within a magnetosphere where high-energy particles could potentially be trapped in a magnetic field.
enumeration Magnetosphere.RingCurrent
One of the major current systems confined within planetary magnetospheres. The ring current circles in the magnetic equatorial plane of magnetospheres. It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.

enumeration Magnetosphere.RingCurrent
One of the major current systems confined within planetary magnetospheres. The ring current circles in the magnetic equatorial plane of magnetospheres. It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.

Facets
enumeration Atmosphere
The neutral gases surrounding a body that extends from the surface and is bound to the body by virtue of the gravitational attraction.
enumeration AuroralRegion
The region in the atmospheric where electrically-charged particles bombarding the upper atmosphere of a planet in the presence of a magnetic field produce an optical phenomenon.
enumeration EquatorialRegion
A region centered on the equator and limited in latitude by approximately 23 deg north and south of the equator.
enumeration Ionosphere
The charged or ionized gases surrounding a body that are nominally bound to the body by virtue of the gravitational attraction.
enumeration Ionosphere.DRegion
The layer of the ionosphere that exists approximately 50 km to 95 km above the surface of the Earth. One of several layers in the ionosphere.
enumeration Ionosphere.ERegion
A layer of ionized gas occurring at 90 km to 150 km above the ground. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also called the Kennelly-Heaviside layer.
enumeration Ionosphere.FRegion
A layer that contains ionized gases at a height of around 150-800 km above sea level, placing it in the thermosphere. the F region has the highest concentration of free electrons and ions anywhere in the atmosphere. It may be thought of as comprising two layers, the F1 layer and F2 layer. One of several layers in the ionosphere. Also known as the Appleton layer.
enumeration Ionosphere.Topside
The region at the upper most areas of the ionosphere.
enumeration Mesosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Stratosphere to a range of 80 km to 85 km, temperature decreasing with height.
enumeration MidLatitudeRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the mid-latitude region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 23 deg to 50 deg. The concept of mid-latitude regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The mid-latitude regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at mid-latitude on the Earth are well positioned to measure magnetic storm-time ring current variations.
enumeration Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration PolarCap
The areas of the globe surrounding the poles and consisting of the region north of 60 deg north latitude and the region south of 60 deg south latitude.
enumeration SouthAtlanticAnomalyRegion
The region where the inner Van Allen radiation belt makes its closest approach to the surface of the Earth. The result is that, for a given altitude, the radiation intensity is higher over this region than elsewhere.
enumeration Stratosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the troposphere to about 30 km, temperature increases with height. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer.
enumeration SubAuroralRegion
When considering the case of the Earth, the sub-auroral region typically refers to two latitudinal bands, one in the northern hemisphere and the other in the southern hemisphere extending from about 50 deg to low 60 deg latitude. The concept sub-auroral regions does not apply to all bodies in the solar system and different latitudinal ranges would apply for each body case by case. The sub-auroral regions may be defined by using either planetographic or magnetic coordinates if the magnetic dipole is closely aligned with the spin axis of a magnetized body. Ground magnetometers located at sub-auroral latitudes on the Earth measure a mixture of activity driven by auroral zone currents and the ring current.
enumeration Thermosphere
The layer of the atmosphere that extends from the Mesosphere to 640+ km, temperature increasing with height.
enumeration Troposphere
The lowest layer of the atmosphere which begins at the surface and extends to between 7 km (4.4 mi) at the poles and 17 km (10.6 mi) at the equator, with some variation due to weather factors.

enumeration Dione
The fourth largest moon of Saturn.
enumeration Enceladus
The sixth largest moon of Saturn. It is currently endogenously active. The smallest known body in the Solar System that is geologically active today.
enumeration Iapetus
The third largest moon of Saturn and the eleventh largest in the Solar System.
enumeration Magnetosphere
The region of space above the atmosphere or surface of the planet and bounded by the magnetopause that is under the direct influence of the magnetic field of a planetary body.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Magnetotail
The region of space within the magnetosphere of a magnetized planetary body where the nightside magnetic field is stretched out in the anti-stellar direction by stellar wind interaction into a windsock-like shape. For Earth, solar wind-magnetosphere interaction produces a magnetotail that extends tailward from a distance of about 10 R<sub>E</sub> on the nightside to downstream distances beyond 1000 R<sub>E</sub>.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Main
The region of the magnetosphere where the magnetic field lines are closed, but does not include the gaseous region gravitationally bound to the body.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Plasmasphere
A region of the magnetosphere consisting of low energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere. The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause, which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
enumeration Magnetosphere.Polar
The region near the pole of a body. For a magnetosphere the polar region is the area where magnetic field lines are open and includes the auroral zone.
enumeration Magnetosphere.RadiationBelt
The region within a magnetosphere where high-energy particles could potentially be trapped in a magnetic field.
enumeration Magnetosphere.RingCurrent
One of the major current systems confined within planetary magnetospheres. The ring current circles in the magnetic equatorial plane of magnetospheres. It is generated by the longitudinal drift of energetic charged particles trapped on inner, dipole-like magnetospheric field lines. At the Earth, the ring current is carried by 10 keV to 200 keV charged particles typically located at L-shells between 3 and 6. The ring current is also the primary driver of the Sym H and Dst Indices of magnetic storm activity at the Earth.
enumeration Mimas
The smallest and least massive of the round moons of Saturn.
enumeration Rhea
The second largest moon of Saturn and the ninth largest moon in the Solar System.
enumeration Tethys
The fifth largest moon of Saturn and the sixteenth largest moon in the Solar System. The orbit Tethys is the third closest to Saturn of the major Cronian moons.
enumeration Titan
The largest moon of Saturn and the second largest moon in the Solar System.

enumeration Planet
A planet is a large, rounded astronomical body that is neither a star nor a stellar remnant. In August 2006 the International Astronomical Union (IAU) defined that in the Solar System a planet is a celestial body that satisfies the following criteria (1) is in orbit around the Sun, (2) has sufficient mass to assume hydrostatic equilibrium (a nearly round shape), and (3) has "cleared the neighborhood" around its orbit. This definition is still controversial to this day. Many members of the community believe that Pluto, which was demoted to the status dwarf planet, should maintain its planet status.
