Abstract

Radiation impact of the SPEs on board the MIR space station and in the interplanetary space is discussed in the report. The data of the on-board radiation dosimeter R-16 were used to measure the SPE absorbed doses. Some of SPEs (such as September-October 1989 series of very large SPEs) were measured in detail by Liulin active high sensitive dosimetric instrument installed on board MIR station. MIR station orbit measurements of the absorbed doses are compared with the interplanetary absorbed doses from SPEs estimated by the data obtained by the METEOR satellite spectrometer. The equivalent dose beyond the magnetosphere resulting from the September 29, 1989 solar flare in a spacecraft module with ordinary shielding thickness (approximately 10 g/cm2 of Al) is far higher than the maximum permissible dose of acute single exposure (50 cSv) and comparable with the maximum permissible dose of 2 year mission (118 cSv). Such large SPEs are a serious hazard in interplanetary missions and call forth of special administrative countermeasures.

  • The 1989 SPEs (GLE 42-45) are the highest SPE doses ever measured in LEO onboard a space station, with 27 mGy measured by R-16 for GLE 43 on 19 October 1989.

    “These are the highest SPE doses ever measured in LEO onboard a space station (see: Table 2) resulting in doses of 27 mGy measured by the R-16 ionization chamber (Shurshakov et al., 1999) for GLE 43 on 19 October 1989.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
