“…The mass M and the charge Z of the particles are calculated in parallel by two methods, in order to have more precise particle recognition: one method uses the residual range (Cook et al, 1993;Hasebe et al, 1993), while the other uses an approximation of the Bethe-Bloch theoretical curve .…”

Abstract. In this paper we report on the energy spectrum of protons of albedo origin measured by the instruments NINA and NINA-2 at different geomagnetic locations, and the behaviour of the proton flux as a function of altitude out of the South Atlantic Anomaly. The instrument NINA was used on board the satellite Resurs-01-N4 between 1998 and 1999, at an altitude of about 830 km. The NINA-2 apparatus, on board the satellite MITA, was put into orbit in July 2000, at an altitude of about 450 km. A detailed understanding of the fluxes of charged particles in near Earth orbit is important to reach an accurate theoretical description of the Earth's magnetic field, but also as input for the calculation of the background for scientific instruments aboard satellites, like the future AGILE and GLAST γ astronomy telescopes.

The NINA apparatus, on board the Russian satellite Resurs-01 n.4, has been in polar orbit since 1998 July 10, at an altitude of 840 km.Its main scientific task is to study the galactic, solar and anomalous components of cosmic rays in the energy interval 10-200 MeV n −1 .In this paper we present a description of the instrument and its basic operating modes. Measurements of Galactic Cosmic Ray spectra will also be shown.

“…3.1.2. Performance of isotope telescopes The characteristics of the telescopes and the individual Si detectors were examined by using heavy ion beams from the LBL Bevalac and RIKEN Ring-Cyclotron accelerators (Hasebe et al, 1992(Hasebe et al, , 1993a(Hasebe et al, , 1993b.…”

“…To calibrate the telescope response of the telescopes to various heavy ions in space, ion beams produced by 56Fe beam with a polyethylene target were irradiated to the telescopes (Hasebe et al, 1993a(Hasebe et al, , 1993b. The response of the HI and the MI was investigated with the Bevalac accelerator at LBL and the Ring-cyclotron at RIKEN, respectively.…”
