Satellite Shielding Using Sector Analysis.

Abstract

Satellite shielding methods previously developed and previously applied for fission beta electron spectra are here extended by application to natural earth belt spectra including protons. They are also extended by application to individual electronic device shielding. The previous numerical results are changed by recalibration of the electron dose code BRANDE. This and other code improvements are reported. In the device shielding, comparison is made with other published work. (Author)
