Abstract: We are proposing the CALET mission for the ISS-JEM/EF. Major goal of the mission is the investigation of high energy phenomena in universe by observing the electrons in 1 GeV ~ 10 TeV, the gamma rays in 20 MeV ~ 10 TeV, and the nuclei in 1 TeV ~ 1000 TeV. The detector consists of an imaging calorimeter (IMC) using scintillating fibers and a total absorption calorimeter (TASC). It has a capability of the proton-rejection power of 10 6 for electrons, and the geometrical factor is nearly 1 m 2 sr.
Outline of the detector system including the electronics will be reported along with the scientific capabilities..
