欧空局-日本宇宙航空研究开发机构BepiColombo水星使命任务将提供两个航天器同时进行的测量,为研究水星磁层和外逸层粒子动态及其与太阳风、太阳辐射和行星际尘埃的相互作用提供前所未有的机会。粒子仪器套件SERENA(搜索外大气层再填充和排放的自然丰度)正在BepiColombo水星行星轨道器(MPO)上飞行,是MPO上唯一的离子和中性粒子探测仪器。它由四个独立的传感器组成:ELENA用于中性粒子流探测,Strofio用于中性气体探测,PICAM用于行星离子观测,MIPA主要用于太阳风离子测量。SERENA由位于ELENA盒内的系统控制单元管理。本文首先介绍了这套仪器的科学目标,然后详细介绍了这四个单元的主要特点和标定结果。最后,说明了SERENA在绕水星轨道飞行期间的业务活动,同时也提到了在长期巡航阶段计划开展的活动。
The ESA-JAXA BepiColombo mission to Mercury will provide simultaneous measurements from two spacecraft, offering an unprecedented opportunity to investigate magnetospheric and exospheric particle dynamics at Mercury as well as their interactions with solar wind, solar radiation, and interplanetary dust. The particle instrument suite SERENA (Search for Exospheric Refilling and Emitted Natural Abundances) is flying in space on-board the BepiColombo Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) and is the only instrument for ion and neutral particle detection aboard the MPO. It comprises four independent sensors: ELENA for neutral particle flow detection, Strofio for neutral gas detection, PICAM for planetary ions observations, and MIPA, mostly for solar wind ion measurements. SERENA is managed by a System Control Unit located inside the ELENA box. In the present paper the scientific goals of this suite are described, and then the four units are detailed, as well as their major features and calibration results. Finally, the SERENA operational activities are shown during the orbital path around Mercury, with also some reference to the activities planned during the long cruise phase.
