Description

Object of the study is a specialized software, the structure of an output information frame of the digital signal processing module of the compact instrument for the registration of high-energy charged particles in space for nanosatellites in the CubeSat format. The aim of this work is to simulate by the Monte Carlo method the responses of scintillation detectors to an intersection of the sensors by charged high-energy particles. Development of working documentation and production of the detector head, holders of printed boards of the analogue and digital signal processing modules. Development of special software for the microcontroller, manufacturing and testing of the printed circuit board of the digital signal processing unit. Research Method is the following: the use of the GEANT4 Monte Carlo Library for modelling of the responses of scintillation detectors to the intersection of sensors by the high-energy charged particles; SolidWorks computer aided design (CAD) systems for the development of working design documentation for the production of the general design of the breadboard model of the miniature electron and proton recorder MiRA_ep; the Radio Astronomical Institute's machine park for the manufacture of collimators, sensor holders and the assembly of the detector head as a whole, as well as for the manufacture of analogue and digital processing circuit boards and detector heads. Results and scientific novelty. Computer simulation of scintillation detector responses manufactured on the base of the p-terphenyl single crystals to the intersection of high-energy charged particle sensors has been performed with the using of the GEANT4 software library. During the simulation, the geometries of the collimator, detectors and their holders were implemented. The G4EMLowEPPhysics package was used, and the radiation source was a plane source, particles from which covered the entire active area of the first detector. As a result, values of absorbed energies were obtai
