9. Calibration of a Position sensitive Scintillation Detector for Cosmic Ray Measurements

Wojtek Hajdas (PSI)

Poster

We present the construction and characterization of a thin, large area scintillation detector used for a particle telescope project AMORE (Airspace Measurement of Radiation Environment). The instrument aims to observe secondary cosmic rays at during geomagnetic storms, detecting energies and directions of various incoming particles. In this work, we optimized the design and assembly of the ΔE...

22. REPE for HENON: ASRO's Advanced Radiation Monitor for Space Weather Applications

Dr Osku Raukunen (ASRO)

Poster

Over the past decade, the demand for effective space weather monitoring has grown considerably. Aboa Space Research Oy (ASRO) presents the Relativistic Electron and Proton Experiment (REPE), an advanced radiation monitoring instrument designed for a variety of missions and space weather applications.

REPE is a compact energetic particle instrument, originally developed to study the Van...

29. SIM-FLARE for Space Weather Missions: A Lightweight Tool for Early-Phase Monitor Design and Analysis

Leon Schiltz

Poster

In the early phases of a space mission, rapid trade-off analyses and requirement assessments are essential. While full end-to-end simulators (E2ES) can support this process, such tools are rarely available at this stage—particularly in smaller missions such as those led by the Space Weather Office. To fill this gap, a lightweight Python-based simulation tool—SIM-FLARE (Simulation of...

24. Widespread Monitoring of Mars Radiation Environment with a Swarm of Wind-Driven Tumbleweed Rovers

Abhimanyu Shanbhag (Tumbleweed Mars), Mario de Pinto Balsemão (Tumbleweed Mars)

Poster

Recent decades have seen the return of first measurements of the radiation environment from Mars’s orbit and surface. However, due to platform specific limitations, measurements from current orbital radiation monitors and spectrometers lack spatial resolution while the measurements from conventional rovers result in a lack of surface coverage. Moreover, interesting variations in the cosmic and...
