Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Interplanetary space is filled with space plasmas. Plasma waves well-reflect variations of space electromagnetic environments. Understanding space electromagnetic environments is crucial in the view point of expanding human activities in space. Plasma waves are observed by plasma wave receivers on board scientific satellites. Their requirements about resources such as mass and size do not meet microsatellites that have rapidly been progressing these days. To use microsatellites for observing plasma waves, plasma wave receivers should be miniaturized. In the present study, we succeeded in miniaturizing plasma wave receivers using the application specific integrated circuits or ASIC technology. The size of the chip developed in this study is 5mm times 5mm. This miniaturization will enable us to observe space electromagnetic environments using microsatellites in the not too distant future.
