ASM
About ASM
The Absolute Scalar Magnetometer (ASM) carried aboard the Swarm satellites measures the strength of the magnetic field to greater accuracy than any other magnetometer. It provides scalar measurements of the magnetic field to calibrate the Vector Field Magnetometer (VFM).
The instrument was developed by the French Space Agency (CNES) and the French Atomic Energy Commission.
