RADIATION ENVIRONMENTAL EXPERIMENT,

Abstract

This report summarizes the development, testing, calibration and flight of a Radiation Environ mental Experiment, including reduction and analysis of the data gathered from two essential ly identical sets of four instruments flown on two Atlas Scientific Passenger Pods in December 1962 and March 1963. Integral proton fluxes for energies greater than 59, 95, and 148 Mev are given, and angular distributions and energy spectra are presented for protons in the energy range 12 to 95 Mev and for electrons in the energy range 0.15 to 1.8 Mev.
