Abstract:
'A project of the OLVE-HERO space detector is proposed for CR measurement in the range 1012-1016 eV and will include a large ionization 3D calorimeter with a high granularity and geometric factor of ~16 m2٠sr. The 3D structure of the calorimeter will allow registering CR particles coming from different directions. As the main NUCLEON-HERO detector is expected an image calorimeter of a boron loading of plastic scintillator with tungsten absorber. Such a calorimeter allows to measure an additional neutron signal which will improve the energy resolution of the detector. The more important, the rejection power between electromagnetic and nuclear CR components will be increased by factor 30-50 in the whole energy range. The boron loading scintillator detector prototype was designed and tested at the H8 beam test area at CERN SPS. Results of the Monte-Carlo simulation of the NUCLEON-HERO detector will be presented in the report.'
