The experiment for space radiation analysis is an upcoming project for Los Alamos National Laboratory. This 12U CubeSat will be placed in a geosynchronous transfer orbit to make measurements of the charged particle populations in the radiation belts. Currently, there are no data from CubeSats operating in the radiation belts, and although the GTOsat will soon be operating in the radiation belts, this is an active space for CubeSat development. The energetic charged particle sensor on board the experiment for space radiation analysis is a particle telescope which will test and mature new technologies for use in space missions. The energy range of interest for the energetic charged particle sensor is from 100 keV to 1000 MeV for protons, and from 100 keV to 20 MeV for electrons.
