| Popis: | Compact environmental anomaly sensor risk reduction (CEASE-RR) is a new sensor designed for anomaly attribution due to the space radiation environment. It does this using two solid-state particle telescopes that have been designed to measure proton and electron fluxes that are the drivers for three of the four primary space environment effects (event total dose, deep-dielectric charging, and single event effects). These telescopes are integrated into a compact package along with space reserved for a planned electrostatic analyzer being developed for the final CEASE 3 design (covering the fourth primary space environment effect—surface charging). The sensors themselves will measure a wider dynamic range in particle flux, provide higher energy resolution, have better out-of-band contamination rejection, and improved diagnostic capability compared to previous CEASE instruments. The CEASE-RR instrument is planned to be launched in 2018 to geostationary orbit as part of an Air Force Research Laboratory flight experiment. The sensor design, calibration, and planned flight experiment objectives are described in this paper. |
