SMILE（太阳风磁层电离层链路探测器）使命是欧空局-中国科学院联合空间科学项目。工作轨道是一个19 Re的5000公里高地球轨道，有4个科学仪器：软X射线成像仪（SXI）、紫外成像仪（UVI）、磁强计（MAG）和轻离子分析仪（LIA）。SMILE旨在通过SXI和UVI的图像以及LIA和MAG的现场测量来了解太阳风与地球磁层之间的相互作用。SMILE项目于2016年启动后进入A阶段研究。该使命计划于2018年11月通过，目标发射日期为2022-2023年。本文将详细介绍该使命的背景、科学目标、科学仪器的设计和特点以及使命的概况。
SMILE (Solar wind Magnetosphere Ionosphere Link Explorer) mission is a joint ESA-CAS space science project. The working orbit is a 19Re 5000 km HEO with 4 scientific instruments: Soft X-ray Imager(SXI), Ultra-Violet Imager (UVI), Magnetometer (MAG) and Light Ion Analyzer (LIA). SMILE aims to understand the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth’s magnetosphere through the images of SXI and UVI and in-situ measurement from LIA and MAG. After the kick-off in 2016, the SMILE project went to Phase A study. The mission adoption is scheduled for November 2018, with a target launch date in 2022–2023. In this paper, the background of the mission, scientific objectives, the design and characteristics of scientific instruments and the mission outline will be introduced in details.
