Review on Cosmic Radiation Effects on Spacecraft Electronics in Low Energy Transfer Range
Abstract: A review of space radiation environment from the point of its hazardous impact on spacecrafts is given. The current status of knowledge of the mass and energy spectra of the heavy fraction of the radiation environment in quiet solar daily variations and contribution of the Galactic Cosmic Rays to the average fluxes are analyzed. Further on, the main radiation effects for on-board electronics are discussed. A commonly used Linear Energy …
