Hefei Science and Technology Daily, October 27th (Reporter Wu Changfeng) - On the 27th, it was learned from the University of Science and Technology of China that the Space Plasma Science Detection Payload Development Team, composed of Associate Professor Shan Xu from the School of Physics of the university, the School of Earth and Space Sciences, and the School of Physics, has recently successfully developed the Low Energy Ion Detection Payload (LEIS) for the Beidou-3 satellite, in collaboration with the 513 Institute of the Fifth Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology.In 2012, the research and development team for space low-energy particle payloads at the University of Science and Technology of China was established. In 2014, the team completed the prototype and performance calibration of a space low-energy ion spectrometer. In March 2016, the team undertook the development task of the payload for the Practice-18 satellite. Thanks to previous technological breakthroughs, they completed the development of the prototype, appraisal parts, and flight parts of the aerospace product within one year, and delivered it for installation in February 2017. The satellite was launched in July. Experts commented on this: "Compared with similar instrument parameters, this spectrometer has higher performance than other ion spectrometersThe successful development of the low-energy ion payload on the Beidou-3 satellite marks the maturity of the space low-energy particle payload development team and platform construction at the University of Science and Technology of China, which has the ability to undertake relevant national space exploration program tasks.
