“…Secondary particles produced through nuclear reaction in shielding and tissue, including neutrons, protons, helium nuclei, mesons, and gamma-rays, are also a concern. In interplanetary space, a GCR organ dose and dose equivalent of more than 0.2 Gy and 0.6 Sv per year, respectively, are expected (Cucinotta et al 2003(Cucinotta et al , 2014. The high energies of GCR allow them to penetrate to 100s of cm through any material, thus precluding radiation shielding as a comprehensive mitigation measure for GCR risks on the CNS.…”
