Scientific paper

NOAA Low Energy Proton Experiment was included as part of the Applications Technology Satellite-6 (ATS-6) Environmental Measurements Experiments (EME) payload to investigate those protons thought to be responsible for the geomagnetic storm-time extraterrestrial ring current and to search for the existence of energetic heavy ions trapped or energized within the earth's magnetosphere. The experiment employs four solid state detector telescopes consisting of two elements each in order to accomplish its scientific goals. This paper is a detailed description of the experimental techniques, instrument hardware, and calibration procedures involved in the fabrication of this scientific experiment for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) ATS-6 satellite program.
