Аннотация:A project of a satellite experiment to measure the medium and long-term dynamics of the spatial distribution of energetic charged particles in near-Earth space, as well as the observation of intense flashes (transients) of electromagnetic radiation from the Earth’s atmosphere in different spectral ranges, is presented. To implement the experiment, it is planned to develop a Russian-Azerbaijani small spacecraft capable of carrying a payload of up to 25-30 kg.
The requirements for the orbit and orientation modes of the spacecraft, as well as its onboard systems from the payload in accordance with the goals and objectives of the experiment are considered.
Measurement data to be obtained as the result of this experiment can be subsequently used for various scientific and applied tasks including the validation of existing and the development of new dynamic models of radiation in near-Earth space, ensuring the safety of the functioning of spacecraft, etc.
