Example

1. SMS provides a convenient spatial reference frame for representing
   1. magnetopause and shock boundary positions
   2. magnetosheath and magnetotail fields
   3. magnetosheath solar wind velocities (since the orientation of the magnetic dipole axis alters the otherwise cylindrical symmetry of the solar wind flow).

FAQs

What kind of data is ordinarily represented in SMS?

SMS is quasi-inertial in that it rocks about the solar direction on both yearly (23.4 degrees +- 11.2 degrees) and 24 hour (+- 11.2 degree) cycles.
