GPS Radiation Measurements: Instrument Modeling and Simulation (Project w14_gpsradiation)
- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
The following topics are covered: electron response simulations and typical calculated response. Monte Carlo calculations of the response of future charged particle instruments (dosimeters) intended to measure the flux of charged particles in space were performed. The electron channels are called E1- E11 – each of which is intended to detect a different range of electron energies. These instruments are on current and future GPS satellites.
