GALACTIC ATMOSPHERE [3 records]

Record 1 2015-06-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Space Exploration Equipment and Tools
  • Radiological Physics (Theory and Application)
DEF

... an energetic particle designed to measure a broad spectrum of energetic particle radiation.

OBS

It will make the first-ever direct radiation measurements on the surface of Mars, detecting galactic cosmic rays, solar energetic particles, secondary neutrons, and other secondary particles created both in the atmosphere and in the Martian regolith.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Équipement et outillage d'exploration spatiale
  • Physique radiologique et applications
CONT

Quant aux informations recueillies sur les radiations de surface par le détecteur de radiations (RAD), elles constitueront les données critiques pour les modèles de transformation des matériaux organiques. Ces modèles seront également contraints par les analyses cristallographiques et minéralogiques des roches par diffraction est fluorescence X que réalisera l’instrument Chemin.

Subject field(s)
  • Astrochemistry and Cosmochemistry
  • Plasma Physics
  • Space Physics

Record 3 2001-07-04

English

Subject field(s)
  • Space Physics
  • Facilities and Instruments (Astronomy)
CONT

The energy eruptions in the solar atmosphere can lead to the acceleration of local gas particles to extremely high energies and their injection into the interplanetary space. These fast moving streams of particles are recorded by ERNE. At times, when there is no energetic particle production at the Sun, ERNE is observing the continuous flux of energetic particles from Milky Way(galactic cosmic rays), and from the boundary of the heliosphere accelerated by the termination shock(anomalous cosmic rays).
