Scientific paper
An overview of the instruments and scientific objectives is given of the HUS experiment aboard the ESA-NASA Ulysses spacecraft. The primary objective is the detection of cosmic gamma ray bursts and solar hard x ray flares. Details of the Si sensors and CsI detectors used in the experiment are given as well as their position aboard the spacecraft and details of the journey being made. The impulsive energy release, the heating and particle acceleration, the storage, and the energy transport of solar flares will be observed using multispacecraft and multiwavelength observations. Partial distribution and classification of the sources of gamma ray bursts are examined as well as soft gamma ray repeaters and the Jovian hard x ray emission.
