26 SEDA-AP RESEARCH OBJECTIVES SEDA-AP will measure space environment (neutrons, plasma, heavy ions, high-energy light particles, atomic oxygen, and cosmic dust) in ISS orbit and environmental effects on materials and electronic devices to investigate the interaction with and from the space environment at the JEM exposed facility (JEM EF). At the same time, it is also expected to conduct on-orbit verification of APBUS (Attached Payload BUS) technology, which furnishes necessary functions when mounted on the JEM EF. PLAM HIT ＳＤＯＭ

27 MAXI ATCS Electronics Grapple Fixture PIU (KIBO-EF Interface) Carrier Interface Optical Star Sensor Ring Laser Gyro Gas Slit Cameras (GSC) Solid-state Slit Cameras (SSC) Radiator for X-ray CCDs RESEARCH OBJECTIVES The Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) is an X-ray camera with a wide field of view designed to monitor active astronomical objects and the universe. It will monitor the variations of the X- ray intensity of various sources in the entire sky, at the highest sensitivity so far achieved with such an instrument.

28 SMILES RESEARCH OBJECTIVES Superconduction Submillimeter-wave Limb- emission Sounder (SMILES), is aimed at global mappings of stratospheric trace gases by means of the most senseitive submillimeter receiver. Such sensitivity is ascribed to a Superconductor- Insulator-Superconductor (SIS) mixer, which is operated at 4.5 K in a dedicated cryostat combined with a mechanical cooler.
