초록

현재 자연적 또는 인공적으로 늘어난 지구 주위의 수많은 미세 입자들은 인공위성에 위협이 되고 있으며 인공위성과 우주 먼지간의 충돌 속도는 수 km/s에 이른다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 우주 먼지를 모사하기 위하여 작은 금속판을 레이저를 이용하여 가속하였다. 기존 연구에서는 다중코팅을 이용하여 속도 효율을 향상시켰으나 코팅하는데 시간과 비용이 많이 드는 단점이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 그러한 다중코팅 대신 단순한 검은색 페인트를 이용하여 코팅을 하지 않았을 때보다 1.5~2배 정도의 속도향상을 보였으며 Nd:YAG 레이저를 이용하여 1.4J이하에서 최대 1.42km/s의 속도를 얻었다. 이 속도는 정지궤도에서의 인공위성과 우주먼지 충돌을 모사하는데 적합하다.

Increasing numbers of space debris around the earth now pose a major threat to satellites as their impact velocity may reach up to several km/s. We use a pulse laser to accelerate a miniflyer for mimicking the space debris. The multi-layer coat on the confined medium is known to promote a higher acceleration. However, it requires some special techniques which take somewhat long time and cost to coat. Instead, we devised a simple concept to coat by the black lacquer paint on a flyer. It shows improvement in the flyer velocity by 1.5-2 times the uncoated, and the resulting velocity reached 1.42km/s with Nd:YAG laser energy under 1.4 joules. The resulting velocity is suitable for satellite vulnerability test for debris impact in the geostationary orbit.
