چکیده

Detector packages were exposed on the European Retrievable Carrier (EURECA) as part of the Biostack experiment inside the Exobiology and Radiation Assembly (ERA) and at several locations around EURECA. The packages consist of different plastic nuclear track detectors, nuclear emulsions and thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs). Evaluation of these detectors yields data on absorbed dose and particle and linear energy transfer (LET) spectra. Behind a shielding thickness in front of the detectors of 0.09g cm-2 the doses range between 21.26 Gy and 0.87 Gy depending on the location of the dosimeter. Not all measurement can be explained by calculations.

THE SOLAR SPECTRAL IRRADIANCE FROM 200 TO 2400 nm AS MEASURED BY THE SOLSPEC SPECTROMETER FROM THE ATLAS AND EURECA MISSIONS

The SOLar SPECtrum (SOLSPEC) and the SOlar SPectrum (SOSP) spectrometers are two twin instruments built to carry out solar spectral irradiance measurements. They are made of three spectrometers dedicated to observations in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared domains. SOLSPEC flew with the ATmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science (ATLAS) while SOSP flew on the EUropean Retrieval CAr...

Evaluation of Circular-Shaped Features on the Surface of Solar Cells from the Hubble Space Telescope and EURECA

During post-flight inspection by the manufacturer of the CMX coverglass of the HST solar cells, circular shaped features of unknown origin were discovered. These socalled "droplets" have also been found on samples of the HST and EURECA solar arrays which were sent to the Technical University of Darmstadt for evaluation purposes. They were chemically characterized by electron probe micro analysi...

EuReCa ONE-27 Nations, ONE Europe, ONE Registry: A prospective one month analysis of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest outcomes in 27 countries in Europe.

INTRODUCTION The aim of the EuReCa ONE study was to determine the incidence, process, and outcome for out of hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) throughout Europe. METHODS This was an international, prospective, multi-centre one-month study. Patients who suffered an OHCA during October 2014 who were attended and/or treated by an Emergency Medical Service (EMS) were eligible for inclusion in the st...

The use of echocardiography in observational clinical trials: the EURECA-m registry.

Echocardiography is the most widely used non-invasive imaging technique due to its availability, low cost, transportability and lack of ionizing radiations. However, it suffers from the main limitation of being highly subjective and operator-dependent. Furthermore, specifically, population or disease-dependent issues exist which should be addressed when this technique is applied in multicenter ...

Estimation of dosimetric parameters of I-125 brachytherapy source model 6711 using GATE8.1 code

Brachytherapy is one type of internal radiation therapy where radiation sources, which are usually encapsulated are placed as close as possible to the tumor site inside the patient's body. In this technique, it is important to determine dose distribution around the brachytherapy capsule. Hereby, in this paper, dosimetric parameters of I-125 brachytherapy source model 6711 are estimated accordin...
