Burch1st ed. 2014.New York, NY :Springer US :Imprint: Springer,2014.1 online resource (643 p.)'Previously published in Space Science Reviews Volume 179, Issues 1-4, 2013.'1-4899-7432-6 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters.From the Contents: Science Objectives and Rationale for the Radiation Belt Storm Probes Mission -- Mission Overview for the Radiation Belt Storm Probes Mission -- Radiation Belt Storm Probes – Observatory and Environments -- The Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument Suite and Integrated Science (EMFISIS) on RBSP -- The Electric Field and Waves (EFW) Instruments on the Radiation Belt Storm Probes Mission.This collection of articles provides broad and detailed information about NASA’s Van Allen Probes (formerly known as the Radiation Belt Storm Probes) twin-spacecraft Earth-orbiting mission. The mission has the objective of achieving predictive understanding of the dynamic, intense, energetic, dangerous, and presently unpredictable belts of energetic particles that are magnetically trapped in Earth’s space environment above the atmosphere. It documents the science of the radiation belts and the societal benefits of achieving predictive understanding. Detailed information is provided about the Van Allen Probes mission design, the spacecraft, the science investigations, and the onboard instrumentation that must all work together to make unprecedented measurements within a most unforgiving environment, the core of Earth’s most intense radiation regions. This volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers active in space science, solar-terrestrial interactions and studies of the upper atmosphere.
