Block external sensors to measure the pulse of gamma and optical radiation in the upper atmosphere of the Earth BVD
Purpose
ESU is designed for simultaneous measurement of pulse gamma and optic radiations of Earth upper atmosphere following such phenomena as transients, sprites, jets, thunder storms, electric discharges.
For geophysical, optical, aeronomy studies of the nature of Earth upper atmosphere physical processes
Characteristics
ESU consists of three similar gamma-detector modules and three optical modules of glows selection:
