Step 2: Describe your environment

Step 3: Describe the problem

Hello all, I have a mms data set from MMS1_FPI_BRST_L2_DES_MOMS. It is given in cartesian coordinate system (x, y, z). It is basically electron velocity (Vx,Vy,Vz). I want to convert it into v_perp1, v_perp2, v_parallel components. Will you please tell me how to convert it by using IRF matlab devel package or by anyway?

Thank you. Justin.
