摘要
Mini-EUSO 是一台宽视场（FoV，44）望远镜，目前从国际空间站（ISS）俄罗斯 Zvezda 舱内一个朝天底的紫外透明窗口运行。它是 JEM-EUSO 计划中部署于 ISS 的首台探测器，于 2019 年 8 月发射。Mini-EUSO 的主要目标是利用轨道平台测量来自地面与大气的紫外辐射。Mini-EUSO 主要在 290-430 nm 带宽敏感。光线由两组直径各 25 cm 的菲涅尔透镜系统聚焦到光电探测模块（PDM）上，该模块由 36 个多阳极光电倍增管（MAPMTs）阵列构成，共计 2304 个像素以光子计数模式工作，并行运行于 2.5 s、320 s、40.96 ms 三种不同时间分辨率。在最长时间尺度上，数据被连续获取以监测地球的紫外辐射，其最适于地面源观测，因此被用于 Mini-EUSO 的观测活动。本文中，我们介绍所组装的紫外闪光器、外场活动的运行以及所获数据的分析。结果与由考虑大气衰减及光学效率、MAPMT 探测效率、BG3 滤光片透射率与 ISS 窗口透明度等不同效应参数化得到的预期总体效率进行了比较。
