The operation of the Bruny Island Radio Spectrometer will be secured for the next five years. This facility makes radio observations between 3 MHz and 47 MHz, and has pioneered the use of modern digital techniques to avoid and largely excise the very strong terrestrial radio interference that is normally prevalent in this frequency band. It is the only instrument in the world that bridges the gap between low frequency solar radio observations made from space and the higher frequency observations made from the Earth's surface. As such, it will continue to provide unique observations capable of tracking interplanetary shock accelerated particle events between where the space-based observatories cutoff and where the ground-based receivers begin. Ancillary activities will address how the observed type II and type III radio bursts are related to the generation of solar energetic particles.

布鲁尼岛射电光谱仪的运行将在未来五年内得到保障。该设施在3 MHz至47 MHz之间进行无线电观测，并率先使用现代数字技术来避免并在很大程度上消除该频段通常普遍存在的非常强的地面无线电干扰。它是世界上唯一能弥合从太空进行的低频太阳射电观测和从地球表面进行的高频观测之间差距的仪器。因此，它将继续提供独特的观测，能够跟踪天基观测站切断和地面接收器开始之间的行星际激波加速粒子事件。辅助活动将涉及所观测到的第二类和第三类射电爆发与太阳高能粒子的产生之间的关系。
