Development and Characterization of Tissue Equivalent Proportional Counter for Radiation Monitoring in International Space Station

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). Th...
