1. Future China Geomagnetism Satellite Mission (CGS) Aimin Du Institute of Geology and Geophysics, CAS 2012/11/18 Taibei

2. OUTLINE 1- Promoting of the CGS mission 2- A brief introduction to the Constellation 3- Open discussion about the science object of the CGS mission

3. Grenoble Workshop about CGS On April 11, 2011

4. To Promoting the CGS Mission In 2012, China Spacesat Co. Ltd. to design the CGS It is confirmed that the Chinese companies have ability to product the small satellites and suitable rockets for the CGS mission.

5. Why are Chinese interested in geomagnetic satellite missions? It is related to Chinese history.

6. Needham has shown that the credit for the discovery of declination must go to the Chinese. Needham has tabulated eighteen recorded Chinese compass observations of declination covering the period about 720-1829. These are of interest not only to historians but also to geophysicists, for they represent the earliest recorded direct observations of the Earth's magnetic field. The question of their validity is therefore of great importance. Magnetic Declination in China

15. Considerations of the constellation concept are for: Good coverage in spatial, local time and seasons. Separating of the core field, crust field, induced field. Equatorial satellite is for monitoring the daily variations and equatorial current system.

16. 80% data for single satellite were lost Kp < 2; LT ~ 21:00 - 03:00

17. Equatorial satellite monitoring mid-low latitude currents by the assimilation method Ring current: Storm-time geomagnetic disturbance Sq current: ionospheric dynamo Eqatorial ElectroJet (EEJ): cowling current Cross tail current: Substorm current Magnetopause current: Solar wind ram pressure

21. Geomagnetic Indices Global profile in X component on the ground Magnetospheric Current System Ring Current Auroral electrojet and Field-Aligned Current FOR EXAMPLE

22. SUMMARY The constellation constellation with one near- equatorial orbit satellite and four polar orbit satellites should contribute to: The constellation constellation with one near- equatorial orbit satellite and four polar orbit satellites should contribute to: Separating of outer source field (noise) from the satellite data. Modeling the magnetosphere-ionosphere current system (signal). Discovering the small scale and short term variation of core field. Constructing of mantle conductivity and lithosphere.
