Small On-Board Environmental Diagnostics Sensors Package (SOBEDS)

摘要

The Small On-Board Environmental Diagnostic Sensors Package (SO BEDS) is a suiteof spacecraft instruments designed to measure ionizing radiation in the near-Earth space environment. The purpose of data gathered by the SOBEDS instrument is to improve the understanding of the Earth's radiation belts and the effect of ionizing radiation on Air Force space systems. Amptek, Inc. is building three of the SOBEDS instruments: HEP, LEP and DOS. The HEP instrument will measure the differential energy spectrum of protons with energies between 15 and 300 MeV, LEP will measure the differential energy spectra of electrons (0.1
