“…It shows that AP8min overestimates fluxes under 1 MeV and over 50 MeV but underestimates in between these regions compared to AP9. TRITEL would measure between 18 MeV and 10 GeV [8], mostly where the fluxes were underestimated. Higher fluxes mean slightly higher count rates in the region where only around 720 counts per seconds are expected at maximum with the current 1.2 mm aluminum shielding [9].…”

The development of the European Student Earth Orbiter (ESEO) was announced by the European Space Agency Education Office for students interested in the space exploration. The ESEO-TRITEL Team, supported by the Centre for Energy Research, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, joined this international cooperation by the development of the ESEO satellite version of the TRITEL 3D silicon detector telescope. Previous version of the TRITEL detector has been already operated successfully on board the European Columbus module of the International Space Station (ISS) and another version was installed in the Russian segment of the ISS as well. In the ESEO-TRITEL experiment the anisotropies in the radiation field, the effects of the Earth shadow and the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) will be analyzed. The results will be compared with the fluxes calculated with the new AP-9 and AE-9 trapped proton and electron models, and possibly also compared against the previous AP-8 and AE-8 models for exploring differences. In this work the space radiation environment was reconstructed for the ESEO mission with the different models and the new results were compared to the ones obtained from the older model.

Radiation Measurements Performed with Active Detectors Relevant for Human Space Exploration

A reliable radiation risk assessment in space is a mandatory step for the development of countermeasures and long-duration mission planning in human spaceflight. Research in radiobiology provides information about possible risks linked to radiation. In addition, for a meaningful risk evaluation, the radiation exposure has to be assessed to a sufficient level of accuracy. Consequently, both the radiation models predicting the risks and the measurements used to validate such models must have an equivalent precision. Corresponding measurements can be performed both with passive and active devices. The former is easier to handle, cheaper, lighter, and smaller but they measure neither the time dependence of the radiation environment nor some of the details useful for a comprehensive radiation risk assessment. Active detectors provide most of these details and have been extensively used in the International Space Station. To easily access such an amount of data, a single point access is becoming essential. This review presents an ongoing work on the development of a tool that allows obtaining information about all relevant measurements performed with active detectors providing reliable inputs for radiation model validation.
