GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences Helmholtz-Centre Potsdam Potsdam, Brandenburg, Germany. Hermann, a German physicist, began collaborating with ESA right after the 2002 selection of Swarm as one of the three candidate missions considered for implementation in ESA’s Earth Observation Programme. Due to his deep involvement in the German CHAMP mission, run by GFZ Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam, Germany, he contributed significantly to the Swarm mission design. Hermann earned his doctorial degree at the Technical University of Braunschweig, where he later obtained his professorship. In 1996 he became Senior Scientist at GFZ, and faculty member of the TU Braunschweig. He has been actively involved in the magnetic field teams of several space missions including Cluster. For the CHAMP mission, he was the Payload and Science Operations Manager, and in 2008 he took over the lead of the mission.GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences Helmholtz-Centre Potsdam Potsdam, Brandenburg, Germany.

Ionospheric Multi-Spacecraft Analysis Tools
This open access book provides a comprehensive toolbox of analysis techniques for ionospheric multi-satellite missions. The immediate need for this volume was motivated by the ongoing ESA Swarm satellite mission, but the tools that are described are general and can be used for any future ionospheric multi-satellite mission with comparable instrumentation. In addition to researching the immediate plasma environment and its coupling to other regions, such a mission aims to study the Earth’s main magnetic field and its anomalies caused by core, mantle, or crustal sources. The parameters for carrying out this kind of work are examined in these chapters. Besides currents, electric fields, and plasma convection, these parameters include ionospheric conductance, Joule heating, neutral gas densities, and neutral winds.
