Monitoring OF greenhouse gases (CH4 CO2) in the atmosphere of the Earth – “Chibis-K” with the use of a compact echelle gratingspectrometer of high resolution with the acoustic-optic filtration of orders THE HERITAGE OF THE VENUS_EXPRESS MISSION 25 Russian Academy of Sciences “Chibis-K” 26 Monitoring greenhouse gases (CO2) and catastrophic phenomena on the surface, in atmosphere and ionosphere of the Earth. Atmospheric carbonic acid, as basic greenhouse gas, plays the most important role in the climate of the Earth, absorbing the thermal radiation of the earth's surface, and preventing its emission into the space. Circulation CO2 and generally carbon in the atmosphere, the ocean and the biosphere to the high degree is checked by natural factors, but it is known in also the time that 30% an increase of the concentration of this gas in the atmosphere occurred in the last 100 years (Cicerone et al, 2001). 27 GREENHOUSE EFFECT MANMADE OR NATURAL ?? Measurements of reflected and scattered solar radiation in the UV- the neighbor IR ranges give the possibility of the remote sensing of basic greenhouse gases, such as CO2 and CH4, and also numerous atmospheric admixtures. In the case of catastrophic phenomena this method makes it possible to judge the course of the process, proceeding in the center of event, from the sufficiently large distances. 28 Russian Academy of Sciences New method of the satellite monitoring of low gas components of the earth's atmosphere on the basis of spectroscopic measurements in the neighboring IR range (0,7… 1,7 microns) with high spectral resolution (~20000… of 30000 λ/Δλ), which makes it possible to distinguish the individual lines of the molecular absorption of the presenting gases and to determine their concentration on the basis of the integral magnitude of absorption of the solar radiation, reflected (scattered) by the 30 Earth's surface.

In this case it is necessary to carry out an integral approach to the solution of the problems presented by the way: 40 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods * the development of the new methods of experimental studies of the Earth and near-earth outer space with the use of achievements of physical instrument manufacture, microelectronics and micromechanics for their realization on the micro-satellite platforms (MP); ** the development of the methods of introducing the contemporary technological-design solutions in the process of creating of constructions and systems MP; 41 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods * the development of the new methods of experimental studies of the Earth and near-earth outer space with the use of achievements of physical instrument manufacture, microelectronics and micromechanics for their realization on the micro-satellite platforms (MP); ** the development of the methods of introducing the contemporary technological-design solutions in the process of creating of constructions and systems MP; *** theoretical analysis method of control onboard system micro- and nano- space platform for purposes guarantee high demand on their orientation and stabilization, presented from experiment; 42 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods * the development of the new methods of experimental studies of the Earth and near-earth outer space with the use of achievements of physical instrument manufacture, microelectronics and micromechanics for their realization on the micro-satellite platforms (MP); ** the development of the methods of introducing the contemporary technological-design solutions in the process of creating of constructions and systems MP; *** theoretical analysis method of control onboard system micro- and nano- space platform for purposes guarantee high demand on their orientation and stabilization, presented from experiment; **** conducting the laboratory and numerical simulation of control processes by onboard systems of microplatform for the purpose of the determination of the critical elements of models. 43 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods Promising trends in development of experimental physics require of ever more precise and more highly informative scientific instruments. Moreover, situation is complicated by a constant reduction of financing scientific studies, even in the developed countries. This specifies the need for development and creating the new generation of scientific instruments with the light weight and the required power, the high level of the metrological parameters. 44 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods of experimental studies At present micro-satellite sufficiently widely are used in the practice, including for warning and liquidation of extraordinary situations. In this case in practice is used the relatively narrow range of the electromagnetic radiations of the visible region - visible light (Fig. 1). 45 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods of experimental studies Using a large experience of basic space research, SRI RAS in last 2 years studies the scientific programs with the use of micro-satellite, oriented to the study of infrared, ultraviolet - UV and X -ray ranges not only for basic space research, but also oriented to the tasks the study of some aspects of hazard situations. 46 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The development of the new methods of experimental studies The long-wave electromagnetic radiations (in Fig. 1 they must be represented on the left side of lower than the radio-frequency band overlap three orders in the frequency, from the portions mHz to first Hz), utilized for studies of plasma processes in space – “Space Weather”, they have the same value as seismic waves for studying the structure of the Earth. 47 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany Monitoring greenhouse gases (CO2) and catastrophic phenomena on the surface, in atmosphere and ionosphere of the Earth. At the present moment in the world there are no satellites, which make it possible to solve this problem both globally, and it is regional (Dufour and Breon, 2000). Measurements with high spectral resolution in the broad spectral band in combination with the theoretical examination of the processes of the transfer of harmful substances will make it possible to make a serious contribution to the solution of this problem. 48 Monitoring greenhouse gases (CO2) and catastrophic phenomena on the surface, in atmosphere and ionosphere of the Earth. It was shown that methane CH4 is one of the most important greenhouse gases of the Earth's atmosphere, in the essential measure which determines radiation balance and the climate of planet. The effectiveness of absorption by methane of the thermal radiation of the earth's surface is 60 times higher than in CO2. Ejections CH4 into the atmosphere, according to the estimations of the reaching at present 500 megatons per year, and observing increase in its atmospheric content, can lead to a considerable increase in its temperature in the next decades. 49 Monitoring greenhouse gases (CO2) and catastrophic phenomena on the surface, in atmosphere and ionosphere of the Earth. The preparation of the compact spectrometer of high resolution for the Project Venus Express (Korablev et al, 2202, 2004) makes it possible to propose for the microsatellite the practically finished development of spectrometer with resolving power of λ/∆λ≈20000 in the range 1.58 mkm. In the instrument the diffraction grating of the echelle grating, which works in the high orders of diffraction, is used. 50 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany Monitoring greenhouse gases (CO2) and catastrophic phenomena on the surface, in atmosphere and ionosphere of the Earth. In the process of works according to the Program of basic research of the Presidium RAS "Changes in the environment and climate: natural catastrophes" we showed that measurements of reflected and scattered solar radiation in the UV- the neighbor IR ranges give the possibility of the remote sensing of basic greenhouse gases, such as CO2 and CH4, and also numerous atmospheric admixtures. In the case of catastrophic phenomena this method makes it possible to judge the course of the process, proceeding in the center of event, from the sufficiently large distances. 51 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany Monitoring greenhouse gases (CO2) and catastrophic phenomena on the surface, in atmosphere and ionosphere of the Earth. Are most promising the spectroscopic observations in the neighbor IR range, which make it possible to conduct the precise measurements of the complete content CO2 in the atmosphere with satisfaction of two conditions: high spectral resolution, which makes it possible to distinguish the separate unsaturated spectral lines in the weak strips CO2 and a good knowledge of the optical path, which passes entire thickness of the atmosphere. Small overall sizes and mass of equipment play important role. The preparation of the compact spectrometer of high resolution for the Project Venus Express (Korablev et al, 2202, 2004, Nevejans et al, submitted) makes it possible to propose for the micro-satellite "Chibis" the practically finished development of spectrometer with resolving power of λ/∆λ≈20000 in the range 1.58 mkm. In the instrument the diffraction grating of the echelle grating, which works in the high orders of diffraction, is used. 52 The Scientific & Technical Subcommittee of the COPUOS, 44th session, Vienna 12 - 23 February 2007 The tendency of a microsatellite use Since 2004 in the Space Research Institute of RAS is conducted the work on the theme "Creation of the onboard platform of the micro-satellite of applied and scientific designation on the basis of contemporary technologies and developments", included in The Program of basic research of Presidium RAS “Changes in the environment climate: natural catastrophes ". and 53 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany Micro-satellite platform "Chibis". The development of the complex of scientific instruments proposed within the framework of project practically does not have an analog. For the first time is developed the complex of measuring equipment, oriented to the study of the lightning discharges, which entire overlapping practically spectrum of electromagnetic radiations and precisely under this task is created the design of small spacecraft, its systems of the collection of information and service systems. 54 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany Micro-satellite platform "Chibis". 55 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The complex of scientific instruments #1: - spectrometer for measuring the complete content CO2, - the camera of optical range, - low-frequency flux-gate magnetometer, - high-frequency search-coil magnetometer, - the analyzer of the electromagnetic emissions, - the detector of ionospheric plasma. 56 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The complex of scientific instruments #2: X-ray - gamma detector range of X-ray and gamma emission - 50-500 keV mass ~ of 2 kg UV detector -range UV - emission - 300-450 nm mass - 0.7 kg Radiofrequency analyzer - frequency range - 20 - 50 MHz - total mass - 4.35 kg 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany 57 The results of space studies are used in many applications, including the education. Work with the schools is a natural method to inform the general public about the role of space studies for humanity. For this we utilized radio amateur's communication channels for the transmission of scientific information from the micros-satellite directly to the schools. 58 6th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 25, 2007 Berlin, Germany The tendency of a microsatellite use In the last decade because of the reduction of financing the entire space industry, presence of the conversion launch systems, qualitatively new achievements of microelectronics and micromechanics, accessibility of the elements of the space systems much attention began to be given to the use of small spacecraft: - micro-satellite - MS (100 - 10 kg) - nano-satellite - NS (10 - 1 kg) 59 The Scientific & Technical Subcommittee of the COPUOS, 44th session, Vienna 12 - 23 February 2007 The tendency of a microsatellite use Table 1. Statistics of the launch of low-orbital small SC (mass to 300 kg) 1986-1999 1986-1999 1986-1999 Military 82% 68% 21% Civil 17% 27% 41% Commercial 1% 5% 38% 129 132 123 Total SC: 60 The Scientific & Technical Subcommittee of the COPUOS, 44th session, Vienna 12 - 23 February 2007 The tendency of a microsatellite use The comparison of the periods of 1986-1990 and 19962000 demonstrates the clearly expressed tendency: a considerable increase in the portion of the launch of civil (2,5 times) and especially commercial (from 1 to 38 %) SC occurred due to the sharp (four times) reduction of the share of the launch SC of military designation. The distribution of the number small SC on the weight groups shows that almost 50% of them are SC with mass to 50 kg, moreover in Russia are achieved so many the launch of such SC as in the remaining countries, about 100 during the period of 1985-2000. 61 The Scientific & Technical Subcommittee of the COPUOS, 44th session, Vienna 12 - 23 February 2007
