Description

This file contains the dataset compiles the data for Fruchtman et al's Seasonal and Mach Number Variation of the Martian Bow Shock Structure. It contains the timestamps of shock crossings, their positions in MSO, LS, latitude, longitude, measured upstream species moments (ni,ne, Ti,Te), measured upstream (both from SWIFS and SWICS) and downstream (just SWICS) ion velocities, upstream and downstream magnetic field data, calculated normal vectors, the normal vector (in cylindrical coordinates) associated with the closest point on the Trotignon (2006) conic, fit parameters used to fit the shock profiles to a hyperbolic tangent function, and various derived upstream quantities.
