Interplanetary Magnetic Fields
View real-time Interplanetary Magnetic Field data for space weather monitoring.
Interplanetary Magnetic Field (Bt): -- nT
Real-time total strength of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (Bt) from the last 2 hours. Higher values are generally better for aurora activity.
Interplanetary Magnetic Field (Bz): -- nT
Real-time direction of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (Bz) from the last 2 hours. A strongly negative (southward) Bz is crucial for strong aurora.
IMF Bx Component: -- nT
X-component of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field in GSM coordinates. Represents the component pointing toward the Sun.
IMF By Component: -- nT
Y-component of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field in GSM coordinates. Represents the component in the ecliptic plane perpendicular to the Sun-Earth line.
IMF Longitude (GSM): --°
Longitude of the IMF vector in GSM coordinates. Indicates the east-west orientation of the magnetic field.
IMF Latitude (GSM): --°
Latitude of the IMF vector in GSM coordinates. Indicates the north-south orientation of the magnetic field.
