Scientific paper

Two identical payloads to investigate magnetic substorm phenomena, launched by the three stage Skylark 12 sounding rocket, are presented. To avoid sensitivity loss of the magnetic sensors, nonmagnetic materials are used. Stringent requirements are set up by the experiments on electromagnetic shielding. Experiments are boom mounted during their measurement phase; sensors are radially deployed. The 3rd motor stage remains attached to the payload during the measurement phase to avoid an increase of nutation during deployment of the booms. An active attitude control system is therefore not necessary. The launch window is from 24 Jan, to end of March 1984, from the Andoya Rocket Range in Norway.
