高能天体物理空间探测虚拟仿真实验设计与实践

Design and Practice of Virtual Simulation Experiment for High-Energy Astrophysical Space Exploration

摘要: 空间探测作为空间科学与技术创新的重要途径，代表了空间科学领域的前沿科技。但空间粒子探测仪器的研发是一个复杂、长周期的过程，故高能天体物理空间探测不适合开展大规模实验教学。为此，设计了高能天体物理空间探测虚拟仿真实验。该实验通过模拟伽马暴现象的探测过程，融合了高能天体物理理论学习、天文望远镜与探测器的设计、伽马暴的探测过程与数据处理等内容。该实验已开展了四年多的教学实践，取得了良好的效果。

Abstract: Space exploration, as an important avenue for innovation in space science and technology, represents the cutting-edge technology in the field of space science. However, the development of space particle detection instruments is a complex and long-term process, so high-energy astrophysics space exploration is not suitable for large-scale experimental teaching. Therefore, a virtual simulation experiment for high-energy astrophysical space exploration was designed. This experiment simulates the detection process of gamma-ray burst, integrating theoretical learning of high-energy astrophysics, design of astronomical telescopes and detectors, gamma-ray burst detection process and data processing. This experiment has been carried out for more than four years of teaching practice and has obtained good results.
