Regarding LMN coordinates

neetasha commented 2 years ago

Step 1: Latest code?

[ ] This issue is present in the most recent code (i.e. after running git pull this is still a problem).

Step 2: Describe your environment

irfu-matlab branch (e.g. master, devel): '''devel'''
Matlab version used (e.g. Matlab R2020b): Matlab R2020a
Operating system (e.g. Windows 10, Mac OS X 10.15.6, Linux Ubuntu 20.04): _Windows 10___
[x] A 64-bit installation of Matlab was used.

Step 3: Describe the problem

I am using mms FPI data. I want to convert GSE/GSM coordinates into LMN coordinate using irfu-matlab. Will you please guide me through this issue of converting XYZ into LMN. Thanks in advance. Neetasha Arya.

Hi Neetasha,

Which FPI data are you using? Are you referring to distribution functions, or vector or tensor particle moments?

Regards, Daniel

I am using particle moments from FPI . Also For Magnetic field and Electric field using FGM and EDP . please see the attached files. B(nT).csv V_i.csv

You can use the function irf_newxyz.m to rotate vector data into a new coordinate system. You just need to specify the vectors of the LMN coordinate system.

Its working now. Thanks a lot.
