Characterizing the Signals and Backgrounds in a Low Earth Orbiting Cherenkov Detector, and Background Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Cherenkov detectors have been used in space for decades to measure Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs), Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs) and trapped particles. We present proof‐of‐concept GRAS/Geant4 simulations to both show that a cubic fused silica Cherenkov detector with SiPM in LEO has a good sensitivity to SEP and GCR protons as a function of cut‐

DART: A Dual Aperture Relativistic Electron Telescope for Smallsats

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The precipitation of particles into the Earth's atmosphere is a primary loss mechanism of the radiation belt for which many unknowns remain. With the growing number of space mission concepts to solve them, less expensive alternatives such as CubeSats are being used.

Hybrid M-FSK/DQPSK Modulations for CubeSat Picosatellites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Conventional CubeSat radio systems typically use one of several basic modulations, such as AFSK, GMSK, BPSK, QPSK and OOK or switch between them on demand if possible.

Efficient and Reliable Solar Panels for Small CubeSat Picosatellites

open access: yesInternational Journal of Photoenergy, 2014
CubeSat picosatellites have a limited area of walls for solar cells assembling and the available area has to be effectively shared with other parts, such as planar antennas, optical sensors, camera lens, and access port.
