Active dosimetric measurements on shuttle flights

A tissue-equivalent proportional counter spectrometer capable of measuring the absorbed dose and dose distribution as a function of linear energy transfer (LET) and time, for all penetrating radiation in space, is described. This instrument weighs about 0.7 kg and was flown on the STS-31 (28.5 degr...
