摘要
CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) 项目是一颗围绕地球轨道的 CubeSat 任务，旨在通过康托尔散射偏挩仪测量日光暴在硬 X 射线波段的线性偏振。CUSP 将允许我们研究日光暴磁重联和粒子加速。CUSP 是意大利航天局 Alcor 计划下的项目，旨在开发新的 CubeSat 任务。该项目已获批进行 B 阶段研究。在本文中，我们报告了对探测器响应进行精确模拟，以评估科学性能。使用 GEANT4 Monte Carlo 模拟来评估源光子与探测器及被动材料之间的物理相互作用。通过这种方法，我们实现了一个详细的 CUSP 质量模型。在本文中，我们报告了评估探测器有效面积随能量变化的结果。
