Table 1 Probabilities for operability for various scenarios. Each of the six rows are for the probability supplied by one of the MAG respondents. Values in columns one and two are of f and its complement o supplied by respondents. The four following probabilities are for the probability of operability of the gradiometer with one ASM or two ASMs, and then for the constellation with one upper ASM and two upper ASMs. Values are for N=10 years
