Qualifying Radiation Detectors for Space: Homework Help Needed

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the qualification of radiation detectors for space missions, emphasizing the need for standard tests and procedures before deployment. Key points include the importance of total ionizing dose and non-ionizing dose measurements, as well as the use of simulation programs like Omere and Fastrad. The original poster seeks guidance on the specific tests and procedures required for radiation detectors intended for space applications. There is a mention of difficulty in finding comprehensive resources in libraries, with some information available online. Overall, the conversation highlights the complexity of qualifying radiation detectors for space use.

Hi everyone.
I have a homework about the standard tests and procedures of qualification of a radiation detector that have to completed before it sent to space.
Please help me about that topic asap.
Thank you so much.

Tell us what you have found so far in your research. We certainly do not do your homework for you here on the PF.
 


You are completely right.
For a couple of days i was searching in the librarys but there exist only nothing.On the other hand,i think i got something on the web.On that following page,http://www.ecss.nl/ there exist some standards but it is really complicated.I do not have an advanced experience on that topic but,some points are such as total ionizing dose and non-ionizing dose and also the simulation programs like Omere,Fastrad for a derived quantity.
But what i mean is basicly,if someone produces a device and if it will be used in a space mission or something like a space craft,what are the procedures of applying it.What kind of tests and what are other procedures that the inventor have to complete?
 
TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
