Dear ISWI Participant:
Last year NASA successfully launched the Van Allen Probes (two spacecraft)
and this pair has been creating a wealth of data relevant to our
understanding of space weather. On board are several instrument suites
and today I attach a 55-page paper describing one of them:

Abstract
The Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument and Integrated Science (EMFISIS) investigation on the NASA Radiation Belt Storm Probes (now named the Van Allen Probes) mission provides key wave and very low frequency magnetic field measurements to understand radiation belt acceleration, loss, and transport. The key science objectives and the contribution that EMFISIS makes to providing measurements as well as theory and modeling are described ...
