A new map of the internal magnetic field of the Moon and its implications: Programs, data, and maps

based on an extended abstract of the same name for the 2010 Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, Houston, March 2010 by Purucker and Nicholas.

Lunar and Planetary Science Conference extended abstract. To be presented March 2010.

Magnetic field values from model (Longitude, Latitude, Radial, theta, phi, and scalar field values in nT) at 30 km as ascii file on a 1 x 0.5 degree grid.

Spherical harmonic coefficients of model to degree 178.
