论文摘要
Mini-euso是一个小型轨道望远镜,其视野为$ 44^{\ circ} \ times 44^{\ circ} $,观察到夜间地球大多在320-420 nm频段中。它的时间分辨率从微秒(触发)到毫秒(未触发),超过$ 300 \乘以300美元的地面覆盖,已经允许其注册数千个流星。这样的探测使望远镜成为寻找假设重的紧凑物体的合适工具,由于其高密度和速度,这将在大气中留下光线。最突出的例子是核者 - 奇怪的夸克物质的假设团块可能比核物质变得稳定和密集。在本文中,我们在收集了42个小时的观测数据后显示了核者通量的潜在限制。
Mini-EUSO is a small orbital telescope with a field of view of $44^{\circ}\times 44^{\circ}$, observing the night-time Earth mostly in 320-420 nm band. Its time resolution spanning from microseconds (triggered) to milliseconds (untriggered) and more than $300\times 300$ km of the ground covered, already allowed it to register thousands of meteors. Such detections make the telescope a suitable tool in the search for hypothetical heavy compact objects, which would leave trails of light in the atmosphere due to their high density and speed. The most prominent example are the nuclearites -- hypothetical lumps of strange quark matter that could be stabler and denser than the nuclear matter. In this paper, we show potential limits on the flux of nuclearites after collecting 42 hours of observations data.
