Abstract content
Near UV detector on-board the “Universitetsky-Tatiana” satellite has observed the atmosphere glow at night side of the Earth. Digital oscilloscopes help to select transient luminous events and to measure their temporal profiles in time scale of 1-64 ms. Data from those detectors were analyzed for prediction the duty cycle of future space detectors of ultra high energy cosmic rays.
