Beating 1 Sievert: Optimal Radiation Shielding of Astronauts on a Mission to Mars
Abstract Space radiation is one of the main concerns in planning long‐term human space missions. There are two main types of hazardous radiation: solar energetic particles (SEP) and galactic cosmic rays (GCR). The intensity and evolution of both depends on solar activity. GCR activity is most enhanc...
