CAWSES-II Space Weather International Collaborative Research Database in Japan (2009-2013)

This science data base (SDB) is produced by the Akebono science team and released through Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS). The data base consists of processed data from all instruments onboard the Akebono (EXOS-D) satellite for every 8 seconds and the orbit information. Those who are interested in using the data base are strongly recommended to consult with the respective principal investigator(s) in order to assure the proper use of the data and to avoid confusion due to misunderstanding of the data.

On publishing scientific results obtained from this data base, the author(s) are required to include the reference listed in read_me for each instrumentation and the following acknowledgement; "This work has been carried out by the use of Akebono SDB released from JAXA ISAS, the sponsoring agency of the Akebono mission, with important support from the National Institute of Polar Research (NIPR) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA)." Also requested for the author(s) is to send a copy of preprint to both the management of Akebono project and respective principal investigator(s).

Any comments or suggestions which arise on use of the data base are encouraged to send to "akebono.sdb@gtl.isas.ac.jp"

CD-ROMs of the data in 1989 and 1990 are delivered by requests.(free) The list of observational period between 1989 and 1998 (in English) is delivered by requests.

Orbit information, information on status of each instrument, and data of LEP, ATV, and RDM are open to public through DARTS operated by PLAIN center in the following URL.
