Measurement of differential proton spectra onboard the Space Shuttle using a thermoluminescent dosimetry system

An experimental technique that permits the extraction of orbit-averaged, differential energy spectra of trapped radiation belt protons using simple passive detectors is described. An inversion technique is used for the data analysis. The basic principle of the described system is measurement of th...
