Zh. Ye et al., OBSERVATIONAL RESULTS OF SPACE ENERGETIC PARTICLES MADE BY THE CHINESE SATELLITE FENGYUN-1(B), Science in China. Series B, Chemistry, life sciences & earth sciences, 36(10), 1993, pp. 1241-1251
This paper presents the observational results of space energetic parti
cles obtained by the Cosmic Ray Composition Monitor (CRCM) onboard the
Chinese satellite, Fungyun-1(B). These results, including those of a
few solar proton events, the geomagnetically rapped particles and the
anomalous cosmic ray components, were obtained from 3 September 1990 t
o 15 February 1991. The observed elements include H, He, C, N, O and F
e of energies from 4-23 MeV/n. It was found that the proton fluxes of
the Inner Radiation Belt (IRB) increased obviously during the period o
f solar proton event (SPE). A few kinds of heavy ions (Z greater-than-
or-equal-to 6) were also detected in the IRB. As to the anomalous cosm
ic ray component (ACRC), in addition to-C, N and O, anomalous iron par
ticles were also recorded. Moreover, the effects of space particle rad
iation on the satellite are analyzed.
