The objective of this effort was to produce a radiation dosimeter for high-energy electrons (1-10 MeV), protons of energy greater than 20 MeV, and nuclear-interactions effects on solid-state detectors aboard the combined release and radiation effects satellite (CRRES). The data to be acquired is needed to resolve uncertainties in the calculations of radiation-hardness requirements. The instrument has been successfully calibrated and tested. Re-integration of the instruments onto the CRRES satellite is proceedings and launch of CRRES is confirmed for JUNE, 1990.
