The role of beam homogeneity in mechanical coupling evaluation of laser ablation-generated impulse
Jacopo Terragni, Pietro Battocchio, Nicola Bazzanella +4
The material emitted from the target surface during laser ablation generates a net thrust (propulsion) in the opposite direction. The energetic efficiency of this laser-driven prop…
Active Radiation Shield for Space Exploration Missions (ARSSEM)
R. Battiston, W. J. Burger, V. Calvelli +10
One of the major issues to be solved is the protection from the effects of ionizing radiation. Exploration mission, lasting two to three years in space, represents a very significa…
A Study of Cosmic Ray Secondaries Induced by the Mir Space Station Using AMS-01
01 Collaboration
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) is a high energy particle physics experiment that will study cosmic rays in the to range and will…
The production of proton and lepton fluxes in near Earth orbit
P. Zuccon, B. Bertucci, B. Alpat +8
Substantial fluxes of protons and leptons with energies below the geomagnetic cutoff have been measured by the AMS experiment at altitudes of 370-390 Km, in the latitude interval +…
Leptons with E>200 MeV trapped in the Earth's radiation belts
E. Fiandrini, G. Esposito, B. Bertucci +5
For the first time accurate measurements of electron and positron fluxes in the energy range 0.2-10 GeV have been performed with the Alpha Magnetic Spectometer (AMS) instrument at…
Protons in near earth orbit
AMS Collaboration
The proton spectrum in the kinetic energy range 0.1 to 200 GeV was measured by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) during space shuttle flight STS-91 at an altitude of 380 km. Ab…
