Overview of on-board measurements during solar storm periods

Original language description

While the galactic cosmic radiation (GCR) leads on average to an exposure of about 3 mSv per year, solar cosmic radiation can lead to 1 mSv per one subsonic flight during solar storm periods. Compared to GCR, solar cosmic radiation shows a much softer proton spectrum but with a larger contribution of several orders of magnitude. This is the reason for the large radiation exposure in high northern and southern geographic latitudes during solar particle events. Here an overview of active radiation in-flight measurements undertaken during solar storms is given. In particular, tissue-equivalent proportional counter on-board measurements are shown and the radiation quality during solar storm periods with that for GCR is compared.
