Advanced biostack experiment
The Advanced Biostack Experiment is described. The objectives are: (1) to confirm, complement, and enlarge the information obtained from the previous experiments by applying improved and advanced methods of localization and physical and biological evaluation, performing advanced experiments based on these data, and including additional biological specimens and additional radiation detectors (2) to determine the biological importance of nuclear disintegration stars (3) to determine the interference of HZE particle induced effects with those of other space flight factors (e.g., weightlessness) and (4) to determine the distribution of HZE particles and of disintegration stars at different locations inside the module and on the pallet.
