Scientific paper

The PS (Particle spectroscopy) sensor, that will be onboard the SELENE spacecraft for the first Japanese lunar mission to be launched in 2005, will measure the high energy cosmic ray particles to study their origin, acceleration and propagation in the solar system. The PS sensor consists of 4 detectors (HID, LPD-HE, LPD-p, LPD-e, these are Si stuck detectors using the ^E × E method) that are cover the energy range from 100keV to 60MeV for proton, from 30keV to a few MeV for electron and from 3MeV/n to 400MeV/n for heavy ions, respectively. We use a new type b+ dop ed Si(Li) detector of which thickness is from 1 to 6mm with high energy resolution for each sensor. We can identify the isotop es for heavy ions from He to Xe.
