Description
Summary:The present contribution is dedicated to the investigation of the background conditions for cosmic ray ion ionization state measurements in MONICA experiment [1]. The future experiment MONICA is aimed to study the cosmic ray ion fluxes from H till Ni in energy range 10-300 MeV n by multilayer semiconductor telescope-spectrometer installed onboard satellite. The satellite orbit parameters (circular, altitude is about 600 km, polar) were chosen for the realization of the unique method for the measurement of the charge state of the ions with energies >10 MeV n by using the Earth magnetic field as a separator of ion charge. The analysis of the background particle fluxes is presented taking into account the recent data of the satellite experiments and known AE-8, AP-8 models and elaborated the recommendations to improve the background conditions for the MONICA experiment.
