Abstract

A concept of a cosmic scientific experiment is presented. The main goal of the experiment is the study of miscrobursts of charged particles of high energy in the Earth's magnetosphere. The experiment is designed to use a nanosatellite platform. The paper describes the functional scheme, structural features and technical characteristics of a miniature detector-analyser of electrons and protons, MiRA_ep. Keywords: radiation belt, electron, nanosatellite, silicon detector, organic scintillator, Brazilian Magnetic Anomaly, inclination of satellite orbit.
