The second China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES-02) will be equipped with the new Electric Field Detector (EFD-02), to measure the ionospheric electric field components at a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) over a wide frequency band (DC - 3.5 MHz) and with a high sensitivity (∼ 1 μV/m). EFD-02 will measure the voltages between different pairs of probes installed at the tips of four booms deployed from the satellite. Compared to the previous similar detectors on board CSES-01 and DEMETER missions, EFD-02 has a cutting-edge sensitivity that allows to observe more thoroughly the variation in the electric field under the magnetic field conditions encountered in its orbit around the Earth.

Abstract
The second China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES-02) will be equipped with the new Electric Field Detector (EFD-02), to measure the ionospheric electric field components at a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) over a wide frequency band (DC - 3.5 MHz) and with a high sensitivity (∼ 1 μV/m). EFD-02 will measure the voltages between different pairs of probes installed at the tips of four booms deployed from the satellite. Compared to the previous similar detectors on board CSES-01 and DEMETER missions, EFD-02 has a cutting-edge sensitivity that allows to observe more thoroughly the variation in the electric field under the magnetic field conditions encountered in its orbit around the Earth.Pubblicazioni consigliate
