Cosmic Ray Experiment (CRE)는 KITSAT-1 의 여 러 module 중 하나로 Total D Dose Experiment (TDE) 와 Cosmic Particle Experiment (CPE) 두개의 sub-system 으로 구성되어 있다. CRE 의 목적은 KITSAT-1 궤도에서의 우주 환경을 조사하는 것이다. KITSAT-1 의 궤도는 inner Van Allen belt에 위치하며, 이 지역 에셔는 고에너지 proton들이 많이 분포하고 있어 위성체에 단기적인 또는 장기적인 radiation 효과를 미치고 있다. 1년여의 설험 결과로부터 Van Allen belt가 무척 안정되어 있고 태양의 활동이 CPE,TDE 및 SEU (Single Event Upset) rate 에 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다. 또한 CREME code 에 의해 예상됐던 것보다 많은 고에너지 입자 flux가 관찰되었다.

As an activity of building Korean Space Weather Prediction Center (KSWPC), we has studied of radiation effect on the spacecraft components. High energy charged particles trapped by geomagnetic field in the region named Van Allen Belt can move to low altitude along magnetic field and threaten even low altitude spacecraft. Space Radiation can cause equipment failures and on occasions can even destroy operations of satellites in orbit. Sun sensors aboard Science and Technology Satellite (STSAT-1) was designed to detect sun light with silicon solar cells which performance was degraded during satellite operation. In this study, we try to identify which particle contribute to the solar cell degradation with ground based radiation facilities. We measured the short circuit current after bombarding electrons and protons on the solar cells same as STSAT-1 sun sensors. Also we estimated particle flux on the STSAT-1 orbit with analyzing NOAA POES particle data. Our result clearly shows STSAT-1 solar cell degradation was caused by energetic protons which energy is about 700 keV to 1.5 MeV. Our result can be applied to estimate solar cell conditions of other satellites.

This study was conducted to estimate the solar energy, as an alternative energy evaluating an effect of solar radiation on indoor space of residential building. The basic data of solar radiation which is useful for architectural design was suggested using theoretical and experimental analysis. Accordingly, this study was carried out measuring the solar energy using Explicit Method. These results were compared with the results using steady state heat transfer method. The results of this study are summarized as follows; Based on the results using Explicit Method and steady state heat transfer on the indoor space of building, it was shown that an analysis on heat transfer using Explicit Method is more sensitive to the outdoor environmental changes. The results using Explicit Method to analysis and evaluate the solar radiation should be used for residential building design.

Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are considered suitable candidates for structural materials of spacecrafts due to their excellent properties of high strength, light weight, and corrosion resistance. An online health monitoring method for FRP composites must be applied to space structures. However, the application of existing health monitoring methods to space structures is limited due to the harsh space environment. Here, carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites embedded with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors were prepared to explore the feasibility of strain monitoring using embedded FBG sensors in γ-radiation environment. The analysis of the influence of radiation on the strain monitoring demonstrated that the embedded FBG can be successfully applied to the health monitoring of FRP composites in radiation environment.

Tissue equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) can measure the Linear Energy Transfer (LET) spectrum and calculate the equivalent dose for the complicated radiation field in space. In this paper, we developed and characterized a TEPC for radiation monitoring in International Space Station (ISS). The prototype TEPC which can simulate a 2 ${\mu}m$ of the site diameter for micro-dosimetry has been tested with a standard alpha source ($^{241}Am$, 5.5 MeV). Also, the calibration of the TEPC was performed by the $^{252}Cf$ neutron standard source in Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS). The determined calibration factor was $k_f=3.59{\times}10^{-7}$ mSv/R.

Radiative heating phenomena occurring in planetary entry flights are reviewed for the purpose of educating those who are not familiar with the problem. How the radiative heat transfer rates to the Apollo entry vehicle were measured and analyzed are first described. Next, the effects of thermo-chemical non-equilibrium on radiation are summarized. Then the radiation problems in entry flights into other planets are reviewed. Finally, unsolved problems are enumerated.

The Van Allen Probes were designed to study the Earth's radiation belts on various scales of space and time. The identical two spacecrafts going nearly eccentric orbits lap each other several times over the course of the mission and each probe carries five instrument suites to address the science objectives on the radiation belt. Since Van Allen Probes launched on August 30, 2012, the probes detecte several storm events up to now. To understand the particle acceleration and loss mechanism in the radiation belt, we first focus on the energetic electrons' dynamics detected by ECT (Energetic Particle, Composition, and Thermal Plasma Suite). ECT measures near-Earth space's radiation particles covering the full electron and ion spectra from ~ eV to 10's of MeV with sufficient energy resolution. In this paper, we present the preliminary results of the recent several storm events using electron data from ECT(MagEIS and REPT).

본 논문에서는 우주방사능 환경에서 우주방사능/총 누적 방사선량(TID) 및 이에 대한 시스템 영향과 정지궤도 위성 시스템 설계를 Spenvis 를 사용하여 분석하였다. 우주환경에서 정지궤도 위성 시스템이 겪게 될 우주방사선 환경을 포획된 입자, 태양 양성자 그리고 우주선으로 구분하여 각각 NASA AP8, JPL91 그리고 NRL CREME 모델을 사용하여 전산모사하였다. 임무수명기간 동안 전자부품에 계속적으로 피폭되는 전체 방사량을 알루미늄 차단두께의 함수로 나타내었으며, 이 값들은 디지털채널 처리부의 전자부품의 선택기준 및 위성체 또는 구성품의 구조물 두께를 설정할 수 있는 기준으로 제시한다.

통신해양기상위성의 통신 탑재체가 겪게 될 우주 방사선 환경을 포획된 입자, 태양 양성자 그리고 우주선으로 구분하여 각각 NASA AP8/AE8 모델, JPL91 모델, 그리고 NRL CREME 모델을 사용하여 전산 모사 하였다. 이러한 우주 방사선 환경이 위성 내 통신 탑재체에 미치는 영향을 추정하기 위해 총 이온화 방사선 효과의 분석에 필요한 Dose-Depth 곡선 및 단일사건효과 발생률 계산에 필요한 LET 스펙트럼 구하였다. 통신 탑재체 내의 각 장치별 차폐 효과 차이를 고려한 총 이온화 방사선 효과의 예측을 위해서 기계 구조 모델을 만든 후 구형 분할 방법을 적용하였다. 이를 통해 통신 탑재체 내 각 장치의 위치별 총 이온화 방사선 효과를 예상하였으며 동일한 외부 방사선 환경에 대해서 차폐 효과에 따라 최고 8배까지 방사선 효과가 다르게 나타났다.
