ERG Science Center
(Energization and Radiation in Geospace) project is a mission to elucidate acceleration and loss mechanisms of relativistic electrons around Earth during geospace storms.
The project consists of the satellite, ground-based network observations, and simulation/modeling/theory teams.
*In August 2009, the mission was selected as the second small science satellite of ISAS, JAXA, and will be launched during the next solar maximum (FY 2014).
*About 90 researchers from 21 Japanese institution/universities participate in the project.
