The GRAINE (Gamma-Ray Astro-Imager with Nuclear Emulsion) collaboration aims to high resolution record high-energy cosmic gamma rays using a balloon-borne nuclear emulsion telescope. In April 2018 the team successfully completed another balloon flight test.Figure 1: Conceptual diagram of the emulsion gamma ray telescopeIt consists of a converter made of a layer stack of emulsion film, time stamp mechanism multistage shifter, and orientation- monitoring star camera. The converter picks up gamma ray electron pair creation reaction, adds time information with the time stamp mechanism, and by combining this with the orientation monitoring data we can determine the direction of gamma rays from space.Nuclear emulsion film can record tracks of high-energy charged particles at the highest accuracy level in the world. The gamma telescope developed by the GRAINE project is able to automatically analyze a large surface area of this film and add time stamps, creating a telescope with the world’s best angular resolution capabilities, polarization sensitivity, and the world’s largest aperture. Building on research developments and balloon experiments in 2011 and 2015, the team has refined the ability of the emulsion telescope to observe high energy cosmic gamma rays through balloon flights.The team is led by Professor Shigeki Aoki and Project Assistant Professor Satoru Takahashi (members of the Kobe University Graduate School of Human Development and Environment) in collaboration with researcher Hiroki Rokujo (Nagoya University Graduate School of Science). The test flight achievement was presented at the 42nd COSPAR (Committee on Space Research) Scientific Assembly 2018 (July 14-22) on July 17.The balloon experiment in Australia in April 2018 aimed to observe Vela Pulsar, a known bright source of gamma rays. The final preparations for the balloon experiment were completed in March at the launch site in Alice Springs, and then came the wait for high-altitude winds to fulfil the conditions for flying.Figure 2: Final preparations for the balloon testWe installed a multistage shifter within the pressure vessel ring (transverse direction 1.5m) and mounted the emulsion film packs above this. Each emulsion film pack unit measures 37.8cm×25cm, with a stack of 113 layers of film. Units were lined up in groups of four to create a surface area of 3780cm2. On the outer edge of the pressure vessel ring you can see the (black) lenses of star cameras facing in three directions.Figure 3: Final preparations for the balloon testThe shell of the pressure vessel is closed. You can see the star camera stray light prevention hoods (silver) pointing in 3 directions.Figure 4: Just before balloon launchCredit: JAXA Yuya KakehashiFigure 5: Balloon launchApril 26 at 6:33 local time. The top of the balloon to the bottom (directly above the light) measures 130m. When the balloon is fully inflated it has a volume of 300,000 cubic meters. A parachute and the emulsion telescope (lower light) hang below the balloon, attached by ropes.Twice the predictions for suitable high-altitude winds were made and they prepared for launch, but the ground-level winds were not sufficient for launch and the launch was postponed. On April 26 the predicted high-altitude and ground-level winds fulfilled launch and flight conditions, and at 6:33am local time they succeeded in the launch. The balloon rose steadily, reaching an altitude of 38km after two hours, before being blown east by the wind and starting a horizontal drift (figure 6). After a length of time that covered the observation window for Vela Pulsar (15-22 o’clock), at 22:19 the team stopped the emulsion telescope. Having carefully predicted its landing spot, at 23:17 they detached the balloon and used a parachute to land the telescope at 23:54, approximately 900km east of Alice Springs at a longitude of 250km SW.Figure 6: The flight path of the balloonThe star on the left marks the start, and the star on the right marks the end point of an approximately 900km journey.The total flight time was 17 hours 21 minutes, including 15 hours horizontal travel at an elevation of 36-38km. As well as achieving the longest balloon flight time for emulsion telescope balloon experiments, the emulsion telescope was stable throughout the flight. On the following day the team recovered the emulsion telescope (including the emulsion film and data disk) at Longreach, and posted the emulsion film to Sydney University using refrigerated transport. At Sydney University they stored the emulsion film in refrigerated conditions, carried out test developments of the emulsion film for part of the flight, and used microscope observation to confirm that there were no problems with the images captured during the flight.During May, they successfully completed processing the emulsion film for a total of 489 sheets of film with a combined area of 43.8 square meters. This marked the final stage of the 2018 emulsion telescope balloon experiment in Australia.The collaboration comments, “Our team is currently analyzing the flight data with the aim of detecting Vela Pulsar and checking the general performance of the telescope. After this, we will repeat long flights for the large-aperture emulsion telescope with the aim of beginning scientific observations.”Figure 7: Emulsion film of the flight after processingFigure 8: Microscope image of the emulsion film after processingThe width of this image is approximately 0.1mm. You can see tracks from distinctive heavy particles (straight dark tracks) on the film.AcknowledgementsWe are grateful to related groups and members for their contributions to the emulsion telescope 2018 balloon test in Australia.The balloon-borne experiment was conducted by Scientific Ballooning (DAIKIKYU) Research and Operation Group, ISAS, JAXAThis research was carried out using a Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (S) from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science for the project “Cosmic gamma-ray observation by balloon borne emulsion telescope to study unsolved issues” (Representative: Shigeki Aoki, Research Project Number: 17H06132).Related linksCOSPAR Scientific Assembly42nd COSPAR Scientific Assembly 2018 informationISAS's Scientific Balloon Flies to Study Gamma-ray from Space | ISASJapan’s space agency joins us to take near-space balloons up, up, and away - CSIROscopeSydney University Particle Physics GroupResearchersAoki ShigekiProfessorGraduate School of Human Development and EnvironmentTakahashi SatoruAssistant ProfessorGraduate School of Human Development and EnvironmentGraduate School of Human Development and EnvironmentSHAREMore from these researchersPress releases2023.12.22Mathematics and physicsPancake stack of films on a balloon most accurate gamma-ray telescopePress releases2015.07.16Mathematics and physicsAn observational experiment exploring cosmic mysteries using gamma raysMore about these topicsPress releases2021.06.02Mathematics and physicsDid heat from impacts on asteroids provide the ingredients for life on Earth?Press releases2020.03.25Mathematics and physicsCreating a crater to constrain the age of an asteroid's surfacePress releases2018.12.17Mathematics and physicsSpace telescope detects water in a number of asteroidsPress releases2020.08.07Mathematics and physicsHuge ring-like structure on the surface of Jupiter’s moon Ganymede may have been caused by a violent impactページの先頭へ1-1, Rokkodai-cho, Nada-ku, Kobe, 657-8501, JAPANProspective studentsCurrent studentsAlumsCorporate and societyFaculty and staffContactAccessJobsOfficial social media accountsCampus calendarPrivacy policySite policySite map© Kobe University
