چکیده
The Altcriss project aims to perform a long term survey of the radiation environment on board the International Space Station. Measurements are being performed with active and passive devices in different locations and orientations of the Russian segment of the station. The goal is perform a detailed evaluation of the differences in particle fluence and nuclear composition due to different shielding material and attitude of the station. The Sileye-3/Alteino detector is used to identify nuclei up to Preprint submitted to Elsevier 2 October 2006 https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=20060052397 2017-09-13T22:50:23+00:00Z

Summary of recent results obtained by the Sileye-3/Alteino detector in the Russian part of the International Space Station as part of the ALTCRISS project
The Sileye3/Alteino experiment is devoted to the investigation of the light flash phenomenon and particle composition of the cosmic ray spectrum inside the ISS. The particle detector is a silicon telescope consisting of eight planes, each divided into 32 strips. Data acquisition was initiated in 2002 in the Russian Pirs module. The data on nuclei from C to Fe in the energy range above about 60 ...
متن کاملExperimenting Galileo on Board the International Space Station
ESA and NASA have a cooperation related to the demonstration of the value for space users of using dual GNSS system (GPS plus Galileo) receiver compared to use of a single GNSS system (GPS) receiver. For this demonstration a joint ESA-NASA activity has been initiated, based on the use of NASA’s SCAN Testbed on-board the International Space Station (ISS). The joint project has several objectives...

This paper presents an artificial intelligence monitoring system developed by the NASA Glenn Principal Investigator Microgravity Services project to help the principal investigator teams identify the primary vibratory disturbance sources that are active, at any moment in time, on-board the International Space Station, which might impact the microgravity environment their experiments are exposed...
متن کاملAn intelligent system for monitoring the microgravity environment quality on-board the International Space Station
An intelligent system for monitoring the microgravity environment quality on-board the International Space Station is presented. The monitoring system uses a new approach combining Kohonen 's self-organizing feature map, learning vector quantization and back propagation neural network to recognize and classify the known and unknown patterns. Finally, fuzzy logic is used to assess the level of c...
