Scientific paper

The paper describes the design and operational characteristics of the ESA Radiation Environment Monitor (REM) together with the objectives of the REM. Special attention is given to the radiation environment of the earth, the types of its effects, and the models for predicting radiation fluxes encountered at various altitudes. The first flight of REM is planned for late-1993 on the UK STRV-1(b) microsatellite, which will be launched into geostationary transfer orbit on Ariane.
