Scientific paper

For 10 days surrounding solar conjunction beginning June 16, 2002, the Deep Space Network's experimental antenna in Goldstone took Faraday rotation measurements of Cassini's radio signal. Faraday rotation is the integrated product of the electron density of the corona and the component of the magnetic field parallel to the line of sight. The line of sight of Cassini passed within 1 solar radii of the surface of the sun. Equipped with X- and Ka-band (8 and 32 GHz) capabilities, the signal of Cassini measured the Faraday rotation of the corona through the region of closest approach, 2 coronal mass ejections, and 1 magnetic transient event. Here we present the calculated coronal magnetic fields from the 2002 Faraday rotation experiment.
