dc.description.abstractThe Zirè detector is one of the scientific payloads of the NUSES satellite, which is currently under construction. Zirè aims to measure electrons, protons, and light nuclei in a kinetic energy range spanning from a few MeV to several hundred MeV, enabling the study of low-energy cosmic rays, space weather phenomena, and potential Magnetosphere-Lithosphere-Ionosphere Coupling (MILC) signals. The instrument is designed also to detect photons in the energy range from 0.1 MeV to 10 MeV, which is relevant for the study of transient events such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and solar flares. All Zirè scintillator detectors will be equipped with a readout system entirely based on the silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) technology. This work provides a general overview of the design activities, scientific goals, and the current development status of the Zirè payload.
dc.description.sponsorshipNUSES is funded by the Italian Government (CIPE n. 20/2019), by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development (MISE reg. CC n. 769/2020), by the Italian Space Agency (CDA ASI n. 15/2022), by the European Union NextGenerationEU under the MUR National Innovation Ecosystem grant ECS00000041 - VITALITY - CUP D13C21000430001 and by the Swiss National Foundation (SNF grant n. 178918). This study was carried out also in collaboration with the Ministry of University and Research, MUR, under contract n. 2024-5-E.0 - CUP n. I53D24000060005. This research, leading to the beam test results, also received partial funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 101057511.
