Description

Different types of detectors are used for the TID calculation based on the RMC method: points and volumes. The impact of their location, their dimensions and their shape has been studied taking into account different geometric models with an increasing complexity. The impact depends on the particle environment and on whether the detector is located inside or at the surface of the spacecraft.
