SUMMARY

The discussion revolves around finding parameters for equation [1] from the provided link, specifically for a satellite at altitudes between 100 km and 300 km. The user needs to utilize the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) for temperature data and the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) for magnetic field data. The conversation emphasizes the importance of posting schoolwork-related questions in the designated Homework Help area of the forum for better assistance.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model
  • Familiarity with the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF)
  • Basic knowledge of satellite dynamics and altitude effects
  • Ability to interpret scientific equations and parameters
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) model and its applications
  • Study the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) and its significance in satellite operations
  • Learn how to derive parameters from scientific equations in satellite physics
  • Explore the guidelines for posting in academic forums, particularly in Homework Help sections
USEFUL FOR

Students in physics or aerospace engineering, researchers working on satellite technology, and anyone involved in atmospheric science or geomagnetism will benefit from this discussion.

I must find parameters for equation [1] in this link http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jgra.50543/pdf
for satelite in height from 100km until 300km. Have to use IRI and IGRF. Any help with answer?
Welcome to the PF. :smile:

Is this for schoolwork? What is the context of the question?
 
Thank you! :)
Yes is a question in my exersice.
The question ask to find the parameters for the equation [1] from the link,using IRI to find temperatures and IGRF to find magnetics fields

Ah, thank you. :smile:

All schoolwork questions go in the Homework Help area of the PF. Please start a new thread in the Homework Help, Introductory Physics forum, and fill out the Template you are provided when starting a new schoolwork thread there. The Template includes sections for the Relevant Equations and your Attempt at a Solution.

This thread is now locked.
 
Oh, and please be sure to use a very descriptive thread title when you repost. The title should reflect the question being asked in the thread. :smile:
