A survey of radiation measurements made aboard Russian spacecraft in low-earth orbit [microform] / E.R. Benton and E.V. Benton.

"The accurate prediction of ionizing radiation exposure in low-Earth orbit is necessary in order to minimize risks to astronauts, spacecraft and instrumentation. To this end, models of the radiation environment, the AP-8 trapped proton model and the AE-8 trapped electron model, have been develo...
