“…Indeed, high energy protons are mainly associated with low deposited energy. Thus, the information relative to high-energy protons is essentially located in the first few exploitable channels of the radiation monitor.To estimate the loss of performance of the radiation monitor in the situation shown in Fig.10, the bowtie technique can be applied, as described in[4],[20]. The general idea of this technique is to find the optimal parameters (e.g.…”

“…The first measurements, with a time resolution of 16 or 256 s, were available one day after launch allowing for four months of measurements during this rising phase. ICARE-NG detector on board E7C is presented with its response functions in [18]; it measures integral electron fluxes with nine energy channels slightly shifted downwards (E > 1.45 MeV to E > 2.0 MeV) compared to the ones on board JASON-2 and 3. This is induced by a somewhat different satellite sector analysis.…”

The Earth's electron radiation environment is extremely dynamic. It reacts strongly to magnetic storms, increasing in some hours by several orders of magnitude in a large energy range, and decreasing slowly in the recovery phase of the storm. For the purpose of spacecraft Electrical Orbit Raising, to bring the ion thruster propulsion based satellites from the launcher injection orbit to the geostationary orbit, it is important to estimate the electron fluxes they can encounter during this long transfer phase. Using correlation between highenergy electron measurements at LEO and near equator, a methodology is presented and validated to infer the daily average flux encountered by the EUTELSAT 7C spacecraft during its EOR phase.

“…P ASSIVATED Implanted Planar Silicon (PIPS) detectors are used in the nuclear industry for alpha spectroscopy and in experimental particle physics to determine heavy ion fission fragment isotopes [1]. Additionally they are used for several space applications for in-situ measurements of the Earth's radiation belts, [2], [3] which are composed mainly of electrons (100 keV − 10 M eV ) and protons (10 M eV − 500 M eV ). In turn, these measurements feed numerical models of the Earth's radiation belts such as GREEN [4] and Salammbô [5].…”
