The summary plot of the time distribution of the multisatellites magnetic conjugation
The summary plot shows the monthly
time distribution of all predicted magnetic conjugations between
four spacecraft considered.
The days are shown along X axis and Universal time
along Y axis.
To show the time of conjugation, in frame of the corresponding day
for each SC the corresponding colour and line are used:
- for the first SC the red color and the first line
are used,
- for the second one - the turquoise and the
second line,
- for the third one - the pink color and the
third line,
- for the fourth SC - the dark blue color and the
fourth line are used.
On the plot the SC names are shown by the corresponding colours.
The summary plot permit to find the simultaneous magnetic
conjugations of 3 and even 4 satellites.
But it is necessary to realize, that some of the multisatellite
conjugations (of 4 SC) is simply the
simultaneously conjugation of two couples of the satellites in the
diferent parts of magnetosphere.
The corresponding numerical files help to clarify each
multisatellite conjugation.
