3. Contents of Database:

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
