    Experiment/Payload Description

    Research Summary

    • The goal of the TriTel study includes obtaining temporal information (radiation history) in order to describe the radiation environment in the Columbus module.


    • Specifically, information will be collected regarding the dose equivalent rate, the occurrence of solar particle events (SPEs), the contributions from galactic radiation and solar radiation, and the improved estimation of the dose equivalent of the space flight crew.
