We are proposing the CALET mission for the Japanese experiment module (JEM), exposed Facility (EF) of the ISS. Ma jor goal of the mission is the investigation of high energy phenomena in universe by observing the electrons in a few GeV ˜ 10 TeV and the gamma-rays in 20 MeV ˜ 10 TeV. The detector consists of an imaging calorimeter (IMC) and a total absorption calorimeter (TASC). It has a proton-rejection power of ˜ 106 for electrons, and the geometrical factor is nearly 1 m2 sr. As a heavy payload of JEM, the total weight of payload is 2,500 kg and three-years observation is expected.
