      The AMORE Detector: An aircraft and balloon-borne particle telescope for secondary cosmic-ray measurements 20m

      Space Weather is the scientific discipline studying the influence of the Sun’s activity on Earth’s environment and related human endeavors. Typically, instrumentation onboard satellites, and ground-based instrumentation, are used for monitoring primary and secondary particles coming from Space Weather phenomena. However, the intermediate atmospheric region—where primary particles initiate complex cascades of secondary radiation remains less systematically studied. The AMORE (Airspace Measurement of Radiation Environment) instrument is a novel ΔE-E-ΔE particle telescope capable of energy and position discrimination tasked with in-situ measurements of the upper troposphere and stratospheric radiation environments. As an initial step, the AMORE detector has been realized in its Demonstration Model (DM) configuration. Insights from the AMORE DM construction and testing process will be presented.
