Scientific paper
The investigation of the magnetism of Mars has become one of the important issues for understanding the evolution and history of the planet. The NASA MGS mission unexpectedly detected higher crustal magnetic anomalies than those existing on Earth. The CNES NetLander mission (planned for 2008) consists of four landing stations. Each station has several experiments including a triaxial magnetometer. The mass, power and volume are important factors when designing Martian magnetometers (MAG). However, the performance must not be compromised. The MAG triaxial fluxgate sensor and controlling electronics is a miniaturized version of the instruments flown on the Oersted, Astrid-2, CHAMP and SAC-C missions. It shall produce vector measurements continuously at a rate of 20 Hz and with a resolution of 20 bits. In order to determine the orientation of the MAG, an accelerometer and a solar sensor will be used.
