Information
has gloss	eng: PERDaix (Proton Electron Radiation Detector Aix-la-Chapelle) is a novel,small and light weight magnet spectrometer to measure the charge and mass dependent solar modulation periodically for deeper understanding of cosmic rays. For a better understanding of sources and acceleration of cosmic particles direct measurements of cosmic rays are necessary. Also for a better understanding of the solar modulation which is expected to follow the 22-year solar cycle, time dependent measurements are needed. PERDaix is a newly designed detector which is constructed by the Department of Physics 1b, RWTH Aachen University. It is proposed to fly with the BEXUS Program (Rocket and Balloon Experiments for University Students) in October 2010. The detector is designed to measure charged particles in the energy range of 0.5 GeV to 5 GeV.
