- Abstract:
- Described is the Liulin-5 active dosimetric telescope designed for measurement of the depth distribution of the space radiation doses in a human phantom on the Russian Segment of the International Space Station (ISS.). Liulin-5 is a part of the international project MATROSHKA-R on ISS. Energy deposition spectra, linear energy transfer spectra, flux and dose rates for charged particles will be measured simultaneously with near real time resolution at 3 different depths of the phantom by means of 3 silicon detectors. The aim of Liulin-5 experiment is long term (4-5 years) investigation of the radiation environment dynamics inside the phantom, mounted in different compartments. Presented is the current status of the new device. Presented are the test results of the laboratory prototype unit. Liulin-5 will be flown on the ISS in 2002.
