Review of the Results from the NUCLEON Space Experiment

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

The NUCLEON space observatory was developed to measure the spectra of cosmic ray nuclei with individual charge resolution in the energy range of several TeV to 1 PeV per particle. The NUCLEON was launched into a heliosynchronous orbit as an additional load on the Resurs-2P production satellite on December 28, 2014, and it is still in operation (2019). This work is a brief review of the results from the NUCLEON observatory over three years of operation in orbit. The spectra of the main primary abundant nuclei and product nuclei of cosmic rays (CRs) are presented. Some new interesting features of the CR spectra found in the NUCLEON data are discussed.
