Figure 5. Neutrons Energy Spectra.

Figure 5

Experimental differential neutron energy spectrum at VESUVIO41 vs. estimated differential energy spectrum received by the ISS9. Adapted from Fig. 3 of reference9 (Armstrong TW, Colborn BL. Predictions of secondary neutrons and their importance to radiation effects inside the international space station. Radiat. Meas. 33, 229-234 (2001), doi:10.1016/S1350-4487(00)00152-9), and from Fig. 4 of reference41 (Bedogni R, et al. Characterization of the neutron field at the ISIS-VESUVIO facility by means of a bonner sphere spectrometer. Nucl. Instrum. Methods Phys. Res., Sect. A 612, 143–148 (2009), doi:10.1016/j.nima.2009.09.004).
