摘要
在 Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray (UHECR) 领域的当前状态综述包括剩余问题概述，见白皮书《Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays: at the Intersection of the Cosmic and Energy Frontiers》(Astropart. Phys. 147 (2023) 102794; arXiv:2205.05845)。作者得出结论，需要两种下一代探测器来回答这些问题：高精度仪器和最大化最高能量探测暴露的探测器。Probe Of Extreme Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (POEMMA)，一种拟议的双卫星观测站，体现了后者，旨在增加最高能量宇宙射线的统计数据，并通过多信使警报检测非常高能量中微子。POEMMA-Balloon with Radio (PBR) 实现了 POEMMA 概念的紧凑型气球载版，适用于来自新西兰 Wanaka 的超压气球飞行，预计任务超过 20 天。PBR 将宽视场 Schmidt 望远镜与专用射电仪器耦合，提供对大气喷发的同时、互补的测量。该任务将验证来自太空的荧光检测策略，并通过太空任务提升 POEMMA 级空间任务的技术成熟度，通过亚轨道高度观测 UHECR 诱导的荧光光，获取高空水平水平气动喷发的首次同步光学 Cherenkov 与射电观测，位于宇宙脊柱以上（E>3PeV），从而进行能谱和成分研究，以及对多信使警报的跟踪，以搜索通过向上行气动喷发探测非常高能量中微子。这篇论文概述了 PBR 载荷及其预期性能。
