Radiation effects on microelectronics in space

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1988
The basic mechanisms of space radiation effects on microelectronics are reviewed. Topics discussed include the effects of displacement damage and ionizing radiation on devices and circuits, single-event phenomena, dose enhancement, radiation effects on optoelectronic devices and passive components, hardening approaches, and simulation of the space ...

The space radiation environment for electronics

Proceedings of the IEEE, 1988
The Earth's space radiation environment is described in terms of charged particles as relevant to effects on spacecraft electronics. The nature and magnitude of the trapped and transiting environments are described in terms of spatial distribution and temporal variation.

Dosimetry in the space radiation field

The Clinical Investigator, 1993
The results of dosimetric measurements are presented which were performed as part of a German experiment package flown onboard the Russian space station MIR. These results are compared to those of previous missions: the first United States Spacelab mission and the first German Spacelab mission.

Space radiation dosimetry

Acta Astronautica, 1994
In this report dosimetric measurements are presented which were performed during the missions Spacelab 1, D 1, Biocosmos 8 and Biocosmos 9. Detector packages consisting of plastic nuclear track detectors, nuclear emulsions and thermoluminescence dosimeters were exposed at different locations inside and outside spacecrafts behind more or less well ...

Corpuscular Radiations in Space

Radiation Research, 1961
The current state of knowledge of the energetic particles trapped in the magnetic field of the earth is discussed. The discussion is centered around the following topics: nature, composition, exposure levels, origin, and loss of trapped particles. Also discussed is space flight and radiatlon damage to electronic and other physical equipment. (N.W.R.)

Space Radiation and Cataracts in Astronauts

Radiation Research, 2001
For over 30 years, astronauts in Earth orbit or on missions to the moon have been exposed to space radiation comprised of high-energy protons and heavy ions and secondary particles produced in collisions with spacecraft and tissue. Large uncertainties exist in the projection of risks of late effects from space radiation such as cancer and cataracts due

Radiation effects in space

Advances in Space Research, 1986
The radiation protection guidelines of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are under review by Scientific Committee 75 of the National Council Protection and Measurements. The re-evaluation of the current guidelines is necessary, first, because of the increase in information about radiation risks since 1970 when the original ...

Radiation hazards on space missions

Nature, 1987
On the ambitious forays into space currently being contemplated, astronauts would encounter unfamiliar radiation environments. The risk of undue exposure would be diminished by spacecraft shielding.

Space Radiation Protection Issues

Health Physics, 2012
The complex charged particle environments in space pose considerable challenges with regard to potential health consequences that can impact mission design and crew selection. The lack of knowledge of the biological effects of different ions in isolation and in combination is a particular concern because the risk uncertainties are very high for both ...
