JEM-EUSO: Extreme Universe Space Observatory on JEM/ISS

Abstract

EUSO is a super-wide field UV telescope to detect Ultra-High Energy Cosmic-Rays (UHECRs) with energy above 10 20 eV . It is attached to the International Space Station (ISS) and observes fluorescence photons emitted by giant air showers produced by UHECR. The three dimensional development of the shower is reconstructed from a series of images of the shower. Phase-A study of EUSO under the European Space Agency (ESA) has successfully finished in July 2004. The phase-B study, however, has been postponed for a long time because of financial problems in ESA and Italy. Then, Japanese and U.S. teams re-defined EUSO as a mission attached to the Japanese Experiment Module/Exposure Facility of ISS. They renamed it as JEM-EUSO and started the preparation targeting the launch in 2012 in the framework of second phase of JEM/EF utilization. The outline of the mission is presented.
