Function: t01
Purpose: generates an array of model magnetic field vectors from
a monotonic time series and an array of 3-d position
vectors
Input:
tarray: N array representing the time series in seconds utc since 1970
rgsm_array: Nx3 array representing the position series in earth radii (required to be in GSM coordinates)
pdyn_array: Solar wind pressure (nanoPascals)
dsti_array: DST index (nanoTeslas)
yimf_array: y component of the interplanetary magnetic field
zimf_array: z component of the interplanetary magnetic field
g1_array: index describes solar wind conditions in the previous hour
g2_array: index describes solar wind conditions in the previous hour
Keywords:
period(optional): the amount of time between recalculations of
geodipole tilt in seconds(default: 60) increase this
value to decrease run time. The center (not the start) of the first period is now aligned with
the start time.
add_tilt: Increment the default dipole tilt used by the model with
a user provided tilt in degrees. Result will be produced with TSY_DEFAULT_TILT+ADD_TILT
Value can be set to an N length array an M length array or a single element array.
N is the number of time elements for the data. M is the number of periods in the time interval.(determined by the period keyword)
If single element is provided the same correction will be applied to all periods.
If an N length array is provided, the data will be re-sampled to an M length array. Consequently, if
the values change quickly, the period may need to be shortened.
get_tilt: Returns the dipole_tilt parameter used for each period.
Returned value has a number of elements equal to the value returned by get_nperiod
set_tilt: Alternative alternative dipole_tilt value rather than the geopack tilt.
This input can be an M length array, and N length array or a single elemnt.
Value can be set to an N length array an M length array or a single element array.
N is the number of time elements for the data. M is the number of periods in the time interval.(determined by the period keyword)
If an N length array is provided, the data will be re-sampled to an M length array. Consequently, if
the values change quickly, the period may need to be shortened.
Notes:
1) set_tilt will cause add_tilt to be ignored
2) Due to this routine adding IGRF to the returned field, you cannot use set_tilt = 0 and give input
position values in SM coordinates; input position values are required to be in GSM coordinates due to the
IGRF calculation
exact_tilt_times (optional): Set this keyword to avoid grouping similar times (default 10 minutes) and instead
recalculate the dipole tilt at each input time
get_nperiod: Returns the number of periods used for the time interval= ceil((end_time-start_time)/period)
storm: Use the storm-time version of the T01 model
geopack_2008 (optional): Set this keyword to use the latest version (2008) of the Geopack
library. Version 9.2 of the IDL Geopack DLM is required for this keyword to work.
Returns: an Nx3 length array of field model data (T01 + IGRF) or -1L on failure
Example:
mag_array = t01(time_array,pos_array,pdyn_array,dsti_array,yimf_array,zimf_array,g1_array,g2_array)
mag_array = t01(time_array,pos_array,pdyn_array,dsti_array,yimf_array,zimf_array,g1_array,g2_array,period=10)
Notes:
1. Relies on the IDL/Geopack Module provided by Haje Korth JHU/APL
and N.A. Tsyganenko NASA/GSFC, if the module is not installed
this function will fail.
2. Sums the contribution from the internal field model and the
external field model.
3. Has a loop with number of iterations = (tarray[n_elements(t_array)]-tarray[0])/period
This means that as period becomes smaller the amount time of this
function should take will grow quickly.
4. Position units are in earth radii, be sure to divide your normal
units by 6371.2 km to convert them.
6371.2 = the value used in the GEOPACK FORTRAN code for Re

Procedure: tt01
Purpose: tplot wrapper for the functional interface to the IDL Geopack
implementation of the Tsyganenko 2001 and IGRF model.
Input:
pos_gsm_tvar: the tplot variable storing the position in
gsm coordinates
Keywords:
pdyn(optional): Solar wind pressure(nanoPascals) should either be a
string naming a tplot variable or an array or a single
value. If a tplot input is used it will be interpolated to
match the time inputs from the position var. Non-tplot array values
must match the number of times in the tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
dsti(optional): DST index(nanoTeslas) should either be a
string naming a tplot variable or an array or a single
value. If a tplot input is used it will be interpolated to
match the time inputs from the position var. Non-tplot array values
must match the number of times in the tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
yimf(optional): y component of the interplanetary magnetic field
should either be a string naming a tplot variable or an
array or a single value. If a tplot input is used it will
be interpolated to match the time inputs from the position
var. Non-tplot array values must match the number of times in the
tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
zimf(optional): z component of the interplanetary magnetic field
should either be a string naming a tplot variable or an
array or a single value. If a tplot input is used it will
be interpolated to match the time inputs from the position
var. Non-tplot array values must match the number of times in the
tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
g1(optional): index describes solar wind conditions in the
previous hour, should either be a string naming a tplot variable or an
array or a single value. If a tplot input is used it will
be interpolated to match the time inputs from the position
var. Non-tplot array values must match the number of times in the
tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
g2(optional): index describes solar wind conditions in the
previous hour should either be a string naming a tplot variable or an
array or a single value. If a tplot input is used it will
be interpolated to match the time inputs from the position
var. Non-tplot array values must match the number of times in the
tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
parmod(optional): can input the Nx10 parmod array used by the
Fortran Tsyganenko model. If passed as a raw array it will not be
modified or interpolated so be sure its has the correct
number of entries. It can also be passed as a tplot variable
name in which case it will be interpolated. If values are
passed individually and as par the par values will be overwritten.
period(optional): the amount of time between recalculations of
geodipole tilt in seconds(default: 60) increase this
value to decrease run time
get_nperiod(optional): Return the number of periods used in the time interval
newname(optional):the name of the output variable.
(default: pos_gsm_tvar+'_bt01') This option is ignored if globbing is used.
error(optional): named variable in which to return the
error state of this procedure call. 1 = success, 0 = failure
get_tilt(optional): Set this value to a tplot variable name in which the geodipole
tilt for each period will be returned. One sample will be returned for each period
with time at the center of the period.
set_tilt(optional): Set this to a tplot variable name or an array of values containing the dipole tilt that should be used.
If a tplot input is used it will be interpolated to match the time inputs from the position
var. Non-tplot array values must match the number of times in the tplot input for pos_gsm_tvar
Notes:
1) set_tilt will cause add_tilt to be ignored
2) Due to this routine adding IGRF to the returned field, you cannot use set_tilt = 0 and give input
position values in SM coordinates; input position values are required to be in GSM coordinates due to the
IGRF calculation
add_tilt(optional): Set this to a tplot variable name or an array of values containing the values to be added to the dipole tilt
that should be used for each period. If a tplot input is used it will be interpolated to match the time inputs from the position
exact_tilt_times (optional): Set this keyword to avoid grouping similar times (default 10 minutes) and instead
recalculate the dipole tilt at each input time
storm(optional): Set this to use the storm-time version of the T01 model
geopack_2008 (optional): Set this keyword to use the latest version (2008) of the Geopack
library. Version 9.2 of the IDL Geopack DLM is required for this keyword to work.
Output: Stores the result of the field model calculations in tplot variables
Notes:
1. converts from normal gsm to rgsm by dividing vectors by earth's
radius(6371.2 km) ie inputs should be in km
6371.2 = the value used in the GEOPACK FORTRAN code for Re
2. Input must be in GSM coordinates
3. Haje Korth's IDL/Geopack DLM must be installed for this
procedure to work
4. either the variables setting parmod or the variables
setting the individual parameter arrays should be set because
the defaults aren't scientifically accurate
5. model parameters that are input as tplot variables they
will be interpolated to match the time values on the input
position
