| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to shed a new light on particle acceleration mechanisms generating non-thermal electrons in space and planetary circumstances. Since 2014, we have designed, fabricated, assembled, and tested detectors, electronics boards, and chassis, to build an electron sensor with a wide (hemispherical) field-of-view. We confirmed that the expected performances are accomplished through X-ray/electron irradiation test in a laboratory. The instrument developed here would be launched on a sounding rocket to measure energetic electrons in the Earth's auroral region.
