Abstract
A full particle-in-cell (PIC) plasma simulator with higher accuracy as well as reasonable performance for studying spacecraft-plasma interactions has been developed. It is applied to estimate characteristics of the onboard current monitors (CRM) for a small scientific satellite REIMEI in the polar orbit, because calibration is required for the observation data. Basic characteristics in typical plasma environments including effects of the satellite geometry are demonstrated.
