Radiation Belt
On July 9, 1962, at 0900 UT (Universal Time) a nuclear device of 1.4-megatons yield was detonated at 400 km above Johnston Island in the Pacific Ocean. Since the explosion took place in the trapping region of the magnetosphere, an artificial radiation belt of considerable intensity was produced. The possible sources of the radiation belt were: (I ) beta-decay electrons from the fission fragment...
متن کاملToward Understanding Radiation Belt Dynamics, Nuclear Explosion-Produced Artificial Belts, and Active Radiation Belt Remediation: Producing a Radiation Belt Data Assimilation Model
The space radiation environment presents serious challenges to spacecraft design and operations: adding costs or compromising capability. Our understanding of radiation belt dynamics has changed dramatically as a result of new observations. Relativistic electron fluxes change rapidly, on time scales less than a day, in response to geomagnetic activity. However, the magnitude, and even the sign,...
متن کاملSynchrotron Radiation and Pretzeled Orbits Geometry of Synchrotron Radiation Illumination
Turning on a `pretzel' , or any closed orbit distortion, can substantially alter the path of synchrotron radiation (SR), in some instances causing it to strike components not designed to absorb the radiation. In this paper I develop equations useful in determining the source position and angle of dipole SR as a function of the pretzel amplitude and angle. Formula for linear power deposition and...
متن کاملRadiation protection at synchrotron radiation facilities.
A synchrotron radiation (SR) facility typically consists of an injector, a storage ring, and SR beamlines. The latter two features are unique to SR facilities, when compared to other types of accelerator facilities. The SR facilities have the characteristics of low injection beam power, but high stored beam power. The storage ring is generally above ground with people occupying the experimental...
متن کاملSynchrotron radiation in the infrared
2014 Experimental photometric measurements have been performed in the infrared part of the spectrum of the radiation emitted by ACO, the storage ring of Orsay, in view to check the theory in this range. An improvement of more than one order of magnitude in intensity compared to classical sources used in infrared spectrometers can be expected with a specially designed line. LE JOURNAL DE PHYSIQU...
