Preface to the Special Issue on the Macau Science Satellite-1 Mission

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2023
The Macau Science Satellite-1 (MSS-1) mission (https://mss.must.edu.mo/) is marked by a new high-precision constellation of satellites that will survey the Earth’s geomagnetic and space environment. MSS-1 consists of two satellites that are to be launched in the near future.

Study on the estimation of Euler angles for Macau Science Satellite-1

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2023
The Euler angle estimation is a calibration method for vector data measured by the magnetometer on a satellite. It is used to find the relative rotation between the coordinate system of the magnetometer and the satellite (usually determined by Star Imagers).

Recent geomagnetic storms observed by Macau Science Satellite-1

Earth and Planetary Physics
Geomagnetic storms are rapid disturbances of the Earth’s magnetosphere. They are related to many geophysical phenomena and have large influences on human activities. Observing and studying geomagnetic storms is thus of great significance to both scientific research and geomagnetic hazards prevention.

Diagnostics of temperature and blue-shifted velocity using soft X-ray spectra from the Macau Science Satellite-1

Earth and Planetary Physics
Using the new soft X-ray data from the Macau Science Satellite-1, we studied a solar flare that occurred on 22 June 2023. We found that the centroids of the Ca (around 3.9 keV) and Fe (around 6.7 keV) line features exhibit a rapid shift toward higher energy channels during the flare's rising phase, followed by a gradual decrease during the decay phase.

Comprehensive analysis of noise in Macau Science Satellite-1 vector magnetometer data

Earth and Planetary Physics
The Macau Science Satellite-1 (known as MSS-1) is the first scientific exploration satellite that was designed to measure the Earth’s low latitude magnetic field at high resolution and with high precision by collecting data in a near-equatorial orbit.

In-flight calibration of the fluxgate magnetometer on Macau Science Satellite-1

Earth and Planetary Physics
High-precision magnetic field measurements are crucial for understanding Earth’s internal structure, space environment, and dynamic geomagnetic variations. Data from the Fluxgate Magnetometer (FGM) on the Macau Science Satellite-1A (MSS-1A), added to data from other space-based magnetometers, should increase significantly the ability of scientists to ...

A core-surface flow model derived from magnetic data of Macau Science Satellite-1

Earth and Planetary Physics
The core-surface flow is crucial for understanding the dynamics of the Earth’s outer core and geomagnetic secular variations. Conventional core flow models often use a single set of spherical harmonic coefficients to represent the flow both inside and outside the tangent cylinder, inherently imposing continuity across the tangent cylinder around the ...

Analysis for the results of geomagnetic storms measured by Macau Science Satellite-1

Earth and Planetary Physics
Strong flares and/or coronal mass ejections (CMEs) could bring us disastrous space weather, destroy crucial technology in space, and cause a large-scale blackout during some extreme cases. They frequently cause geomagnetic storms, which is a sudden disturbance of the Earth’s magnetosphere.

Utilising Macau Science Satellite-1 Data and Comprehensive Datasets to Develop a Lithospheric Magnetic Field Model of the Chinese Mainland

Remote Sensing
We incorporated a comprehensive dataset encompassing recent measurements from satellites such as the Macau Science Satgellite-1 (MSS-1), Swarm, and CHAMP, as well as aero and ocean magnetic measurements, alongside ground-based data from 1936 to 2000.

Preliminary results suggest observations from Macau Science Satellite-1 system can improve knowledge of tidal-induced magnetic fields

Earth and Planetary Physics
This study presents preliminary results of tidal-induced magnetic field signals extracted from 9 months of data collected by the Macau Science Satellite-1 (MSS-1) from November 2023 to July 2024. Tidal signals were isolated using sequential modeling techniques by subtracting non-tidal field model predictions from observed magnetic data.
