Description
Space radiation and its effects are key design considerations for missions. At JPL, Geant4 is used in a variety of applications including comparisons of total ionizing dose (TID) analyses with other radiation transport codes, estimating an instrument’s response to high energy penetrating radiation, and tracing particle trajectories in magnetic fields. This presentation will give an overview of some Geant4 analyses performed for JPL missions and scientific studies.
