irfu-matlab is a package of matlab routines for space scientists working with data from different space missions.
irfu-matlab includes different parts:
- General plasma physics: estimates of different plasma parameters, plasma wave dispersion relations, plasma wave visualization
- General time series analysis routines: minimum variance, Hofmann-Teller, Walén analysis,...
- Multi-spacecraft analysis methods: gradient methods (e.g. curlometer), timing
- Data reading supports: Cluster Active Archive, OMNI, cdf
- Plotting routines: time series, spectrograms, spacecraft location, (publishing quality figures!)
Examples
All examples can be reconstructed directly after installing irfu-matlab and running the corresponding
routines.
It is also possible to run through a quick demonstration of irfu-matlab by simply running irf('demo')
Plasma physics
Cold plasma dispersion relation
Dispersion surfaces can be plotted for different plasma parameters and colored depending on polarization, E/B, ellipticity...

Plasma wave movies
Example shows shear Alfvén wave propagating at 45 degree angle. More examples

Cluster satellites

Cluster location
Location can be shown in different formats - 2D, 3D, relative/absolute.

Distance between two Cluster spacecraft is shown using the colors of both spacecraft
