Spacecraft potential variations of the Swarm satellites at low Earth orbital altitudes

In this study, we provide the first detailed analysis of variations in the spacecraft potential (Vs) of the three Swarm satellites, which are flying at about 400–500 km. Unlike previous studies that have investigated extreme charging events, usually with spacecraft potentials as negative as −100 V,...
