Descripción
The main goal of the JEM-EUSO experiment is the study of Ultra High
Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR, 1019-1021 e V), but the
method which will be used (detection of the secondary light emissions
induced by cosmic rays in the atmosphere) allows to study other luminous
phenomena. The UHECRs will be detected through the measurement of the
emission in the range between 290 and 430 m, where some part of
Transient Luminous Events (TLEs) emission also appears. This work
discusses the possibility of using the JEM-EUSO Telescope to get new
scientific results on TLEs. The high time resolution of this instrument
allows to observe the evolution of TLEs with great precision just at the
moment of their origin. The paper consists of four parts: review of the
present knowledge on the TLE, presentation of the results of the
simulations of the TLE images in the JEM-EUSO telescope, results of the
Russian experiment Tatiana-2 and discussion of the possible progress
achievable in this field with JEM-EUSO as well as possible cooperation
with other space projects devoted to the study of TLE - TARANIS and
ASIM. In atmospheric physics, the study of TLEs became one of the main
physical subjects of interest after their discovery in 1989. In the
years 1992 - 1994 detection was performed from satellite, aircraft and
space shuttle and recently from the International Space Station. These
events have short duration (milliseconds) and small scales (km to tens
of km) and appear at altitudes 50 - 100 km. Their nature is still not
clear and each new experimental data can be useful for a better
understanding of these mysterious phenomena.
