The AMPTE CCE Magnetic Field ExperimentThe Magnetic Field Experiment on the Active Magnetosheric Particle Tracer Explorer (AMPTE) Charge Composition Explorer (CCE) spacecraft consists of a triaxial fluxgate-magnetometer system containing sensors mounted on a 2.3-m two-link collapsible boom. It is pointed out that this instrument is similar to those flown on Voyager 1 and 2, and those scheduled to flight on the Giotto and Viking spacecraft. A description is provided of the sensor system and the analog electronics, and some preliminary data are presented.
