星簇II號(Cluster II)[2]是一項美國宇航局參與的歐洲空間局太空探測任務,目的是在近兩個太陽周期內研究地球磁層。該任務由四顆相同衛星組成四面體隊形飛行,以替代1996年因發射失敗而被毀的原星簇衛星,四顆星簇II號衛星於2000年7月和8月在哈薩克斯坦拜科努爾分別搭乘兩枚「聯盟-弗雷加火箭上成對發射升空。2011年2月,星簇II號衛星慶祝了10年成功的空間探測行動。截至2020年10月,其任務已延長至2022年底[3]。2004年至2007年,中國國家航天局/歐空局雙星任務與星簇II號衛星群一起運行。

任務概述

北黃極視角顯示星簇2號衛星自2004年3月21日來一周內的飛行軌跡。網格線表示地球弓形激波(綠色外層)和磁層(藍色內層)的平均位置。由於地球環太陽運行,在該照片中,衛星軌道似乎在旋轉,太陽位於上方。

這四顆完全相同的星簇II號衛星組隊環繞地球飛行,以研究太陽活動對地球空間環境的影響。該任務是太空探測史上首次能夠收集有關太陽風如何與磁層相互作用並影響包括極光在內的近地空間及其大氣層的三維信息。

這些衛星外形為1.3米高、直徑2.9米的扁平圓柱體(查看在線三維模型 Archive.is存檔,存檔日期2012-07-07),質量1200千克,其中包括650千克的推進劑和71千克的儀器,以每分鐘15圈的自旋速度保持穩定。發射後,圓柱體側面覆蓋的太陽能板可為儀器(47瓦)和各種設備(特別是通信)提供224的電力,剩餘電能將儲存在5塊總容量為80安時的鎘銀電池中。由於高能帶電粒子的損害,太陽能電池板的功率會隨着任務的進行而逐漸下降,但事前已計劃好其功率水平足以保障探測操作。四顆衛星都安裝有一台400牛頓的主推進器和8台10牛頓的小型火箭發動機,燃料為聯氨過氧化氮混合物。主引擎用於將衛星送入工作軌道上,然後調整與其他三顆衛星的距離,相距4公里到10000公里不等,機動組成各種四面體隊形以研究磁層結構和邊界。一旦進入軌道,衛星將展開多根天線和電纜:2根通信天線、2根5米長的儀器傳感器杆、4根50米長用於電場和波實驗的徑向延伸電纜,衛星平台設計至少運行5年[4][5]

衛星高度橢圓軌道最初抵達約4倍地球半徑(RE=6371公里)的近地點和19.6倍的遠地點,每圈軌道運行時間約需57小時。衛星軌道將隨着時間的推移發生改變,拱頂線逐步向南旋轉,使得軌道穿過磁尾電流片的距離逐漸減小,並可對所穿越緯度的大範圍白晝側磁層頂進行採樣。引力效應使近地點(和遠地點)距離發生了長期變化,2011年,近地點縮減至數百公里,然後又開始上升,軌道平面已偏離了90度傾角,歐洲太空營運中心的軌道修正也將衛星繞軌周期改為了54小時,所有這些變化使得該衛星群能夠探訪比最初兩年任務更廣的一系列重要磁層區,從而擴大了任務的探測範圍。

歐洲太空營運中心(ESOC)進行遙測並將來自衛星的科學數據分發到在線數據中心。位於英國盧瑟福阿普爾頓實驗室的聯合科學運營中心(JSOC)負責協調科學規劃,並與儀器團隊合作,向歐洲空間業務中心提供合併的儀器指令請求。

星簇衛星科學檔案歐空局星簇和雙星科學任務的長期檔案。自2014年11月1日起,它是星簇任務科學數據和支持數據庫的唯一公共訪問點。雙星數據可通過該檔案公開獲得。星簇衛星科學檔案館位於西班牙馬德里附近的歐洲空間天文中心內歐空局所有其他科學檔案館旁。從2006年2月到2014年10月,可以通過星簇衛星科學檔案頁面存檔備份,存於互聯網檔案館)訪問星簇衛星數據。

歷史

星簇衛星任務於1982年被提交給歐空局,並於1986年與太陽和日光層觀測台(SOHO)一起獲得批准,這兩項任務共同構成了歐洲航天局地平線2000計劃的日地物理學「奠基石」任務。 儘管最初的星簇衛星於1995年完成,但由於1996年攜帶衛星的阿麗亞娜5型火箭爆炸,使任務被推遲四年,以重新研製新的儀器和衛星。

2000年7月16日,一枚從拜科努爾航天發射場發射的聯盟-弗雷加火箭將兩顆替代的星簇2號衛星(薩爾薩號和桑巴號)送入停駐軌道,在那裏它們以自身動力機動到環繞期為57小時的19000×119000公里軌道。三周後的2000年8月9日,另一枚「聯盟-弗雷加」火箭將其餘兩顆衛星(倫巴號和探戈號)送入相同的軌道。1號衛星「倫巴」也被稱為鳳凰衛星,因為它主要是用原任務失敗後剩下的備件所製造。四顆在軌衛星經設備調試後,於2001年2月1日展開了首次科學探測。

歐洲空間局在所有歐空局成員國中舉辦了一場衛星征名大賽[6],來自英國的雷·科頓以倫巴探戈薩爾薩桑巴等名稱贏得了比賽[7]。雷居住的市鎮布里斯托被授予微縮版衛星模型,以表彰獲獎作品以及該市與衛星的聯繫[8][9]。在擺放多年後,它們最終在盧瑟福·阿普爾頓實驗室找到了自己歸宿。

該任務原計劃只持續到2003年底,現已多次延期。第一次從2004年延至2005年,第二次從2005年延至2009年6月,目前該任務已延長至2020年底[10]

科學目標

地球磁層示意圖,太陽風從左向右吹。弓形激波(Bow shock)、偏轉的太陽風粒子(Deflected solar wind particles)、射入的太陽風粒子(Incoming solar wind particles)、磁鞘(Magentsheath)、磁尾(Magentotail)、中性層(Neutral sheet)、等離子片(Plasma sheet)、極尖區(Polar cusp)、范艾倫輻射帶(Van Allen radiation belt)。

以前僅靠一、兩顆衛星飛行任務無法提供準確研究磁層邊界所需的數據,由於組成磁層的等離子體無法用遙感技術進行觀測,因此必須使用衛星進行原位測量。四顆衛星使科學家能夠進行所需的三維辨時測量,以創建磁層區域之間以及磁層和太陽風間所發生的複雜等離子體相互作用的真實圖像。

每顆衛星都攜帶了11台探測儀器,旨在研究關鍵等離子體區時空內的小尺度等離子體結構:太陽風弓形激波磁層頂、極地尖點、磁尾等離子層邊界層以及極冠上空和極光帶。

  • 弓形激波是地球和太陽之間的空間區域,在那裏太陽風在繞地球偏轉之前從超音速減速到亞音速。在穿越該區域時,衛星進行測量以幫助描述發生在弓激波中的作用過程,例如異常熱流的起源和穿過來自太陽風的弓形激波和磁鞘傳播的電磁波。
  • 弓形激波的背後是分隔地球和太陽風磁場的薄等離子體層,稱為磁層頂。因太陽風壓的不斷變化,該邊界也在不斷移動。但由於太陽風和磁層內的等離子體和磁壓分別應處於平衡狀態,因此磁層應該是一層不可穿透的邊界。然而,現已觀察到等離子體從太陽風中穿過磁層頂進入磁層的現象。 星簇2號衛星的四點測量使得追蹤磁層頂的運動以及闡明太陽風中等離子體的穿透機製成為可能。
  • 在北半球和南半球兩個地區,地球磁場與磁層頂垂直而非相切。這些「極地尖點」允許由離子和電子組成的太陽風粒子流入磁層。星簇2號衛星將記錄粒子的分佈,從而可以描述外部尖點的湍流區域。
  • 被太陽風吹離太陽的地球磁場區域統稱為「磁尾」,長度跨越月球的兩個裂瓣構成了外磁尾,而中央等離子片則形成高度活躍的內磁尾。星簇2號衛星將監測來自電離層的粒子和太陽風,因為它們穿過了磁尾瓣。在中央等離子體片中,衛星將測定離子束的起源以及由亞磁暴引起的磁場向電流的紊亂。
  • 大氣層中沉澱的帶電粒子在磁極周圍形成了一圈輻射光環,稱為「極光帶」,星簇衛星將測量該區域不同時間的瞬態粒子流及電場和磁場的變化
