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...
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...
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...
