Abstract

Cluster Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Field Fluctuations (STAFF) high resolution data that are available at Cluster Active Archive (CAA) comprise two main parts, corresponding to data issued from the two onboard data analysers. The STAFF waveform analyser (STAFF-SC) provides data in the frequency range 0.1–10 Hz or 0.1–180 Hz, depending on the spacecraft telemetry rate. The Spectrum Analyser (STAFF-SA) calculates the complete spectral matrix elements for five wave components, the three magnetic components from the STAFF experiment and the two electric components from the Electric Field and Wave (EFW) experiment, in the frequency range 8–4,000 Hz. From STAFF-SC the CAA data comprise waveform data in telemetry units, complex spectra in physical units, dynamic spectra plots, and possibly in the future waveform data in physical units. The CAA products from STAFF-SA are the spectral matrix data in physical units. In the future, STAFF-SA value added products containing wave polarisation and propagation characteristics will be delivered.
