Cosmic ray exposure dose evaluation

Study

Cosmic ray exposure dose evaluation

We are proceeding research and development on cosmic ray exposure dose evaluation for astronauts, flight attendants, and the public. So far, we have developed a model (PARMA / EXPACS) that calculates cosmic ray flux at any point in the atmosphere, and used this to estimate the annual cosmic ray exposure dose for the public.
