Abstract

The cosmic ray experiment (CRE) on board the KITSAT-1 has been operating normally since the launch of the satellite. CRE is composed of two parts : the cosmic particle experiment (CPE) and the total dose experiment (TDE). Of these, we will discuss on the CPE results obtained the last several months. The data show much larger high energy Particle flux than the Previous UOSAT-3 data. The 550(single event upset) rate is also an order of magnitude higher than the UOSAT-3result. We will compare these results with the Bredictions of the CREME codel. ReferTncesAdams, J. H., Jr., 1987, NRL Memorandun Report 5901
