Space experiments on-board of lomonosov mission to study gamma-ray bursts and UHECRS

The number of experiments on-board Lomonosov spacecraft are preparing now at SINP MSU in co-operation with other organisations. The main idea of Lomonosov mission is to study extreme astrophysical phenomena, such as cosmic gamma-ray bursts and ultra-high energy cosmic rays. These phenomena connect with processes occurred in very distant astrophysical objects of the Early Universe and give us information about first stages of Universe evolution. Thus, the Lomonosov mission scientific equipment includes several instruments for gamma-ray burst observation in optics, ultra-violet, X-rays and gamma-rays and the wide aperture telescope for ultra-high energy particle study by detection of ionisation light along its tracks in the atmosphere. The main parameters and a brief description of these instruments are presented

Pioneering space based detector for study of cosmic rays beyond GZK Limit

Space-based detectors for study of extreme energy cosmic rays (EECR) are being prepared as promising new direction of EECR study. Pioneering space device – tracking ultraviolet set up (TUS) is at the last stage of its construction and testing. TUS detector description is presented
