Abstract

The Cosmic Radiation Environment and Dosimetry experiment (CREDO) has been operational on board the Advanced Photovoltaics & Electronics Experiment Spacecraft since August 1994. Extensive measurements of cosmic ray linear energy transfer spectra (using data to January 1996) and total dose (using data to November 1994) have been made, and compared with predictions of standard models. Detailed consideration of spacecraft shielding effects have been made. Predictions are shown to overestimate the measured linear energy transfer spectra. The CREAM experiment was flown on STS-63 in the SpaceHab module. Results show penetration of high energy electrons into the SpaceHab module.

摘要

宇宙辐射环境与剂量测定实验（CREDO）自1994年8月起在先进光伏与电子实验航天器上运行。已对宇宙射线线能量转移谱（使用截至1996年1月的数据）和总剂量（使用截至1994年11月的数据）进行了广泛测量，并与标准模型的预测结果进行了比较。已对航天器屏蔽效应进行了详细考虑。结果表明，预测值高估了实测的线能量转移谱。CREAM实验搭载在STS - 63任务的太空实验室模块中飞行。结果显示高能电子穿透了太空实验室模块。
