CORONAS-F satellite: Tasks for study of particle acceleration

A low altitude satellite with polar orbit, namely CORONAS-F has been launched on July 31, 2001. We briefly list the possibilities of a complex instrument SKL, and on the basis of similar measurements by CORONAS-I we illustrate the possible tasks for magnetospheric studies. Such orbit allows to sampl...

Zusammenfassung:A low altitude satellite with polar orbit, namely CORONAS-F has been launched on July 31, 2001. We briefly list the possibilities of a complex instrument SKL, and on the basis of similar measurements by CORONAS-I we illustrate the possible tasks for magnetospheric studies. Such orbit allows to sample with relatively high time resolution the projection series of various magnetospheric regions to low altitudes and to indicate changes within.
