摘要：

We report on the background study of the CCD camera. of the MAXI mission on-bard the International Space Station. Our study is based on the simulation using the Geant4 toolkit. We studied the background from cosmic electron in 3-100MeV range mainly. Our result shows that the design of collimator and slit a it to reduce the X-ray background (mainly bremsstrahlung). Thick collimator and slit is preferable. Material is also important.
