Sectoring method for cosmic radiation shielding calculation for LEO satellite

  • 1. Kyunghee Univ., Youngin (Korea, Republic of)

Description

One of an approximate calculation model (sectoring method) is developed for a cosmic radiation shielding in satellite. Shielding calculation is performed for KITSAT-1 at the assumed SAA (South Atlatic Anomaly) location with AP-8 model radiation spectrum. When sectoring method is applied, calculation error is expected compared with 3-D detailed geometry calculation because of straight knock-on assumption neglecting the deflection of incident proton. However, sectoring method shows good agreements with 3-dimensional detailed Monte Carlo calculation in two TID detector locations
