GAMMA-400 is a space mission which will be configured as a dual experiment, dedicated to the study of both CRs and gamma rays with a state-of-the-art imaging Silicon Tracker and a very deep Calorimeter. It will be able to study electrons, protons and nuclei with energy up to knee and gamma rays in the energy range 30 MeV - 1 TeV.
The Montecarlo simulation, based on the Geant4 simulation...

Particle Environment Package (PEP) is a particle instrument being proposed for the ESA JUICE mission (Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer) aiming to conduct plasma and neutral gas measurements in the harsh radiation environment of Jupiter. In connection with the JUICE payload Announce of Opportunity extensive radiation analysis of the PEP sensors was performed using GRAS (Geant4 Radiation Analysis for...

Geant4 is a vital tool for understanding and calibrating the response of space-borne radiation sensors at The Aerospace Corporation. For the Cosmic Ray Telescope for the Effects of Radiation (CRaTER) sensor aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), we have found Geant4 to be particularly critical in modeling the effects of delta rays (energetic secondary or "knock-on" electrons), which...
