Where Linux Breaks Under Radiation: A Cross-Architecture Kernel-Level Characterization of Proton-Induced Failures in COTS SoCs
Saad Memon, Rafal Graczyk, Tomasz Rajkowski +5
Linux is increasingly deployed in Low Earth Orbit on commercial off the shelf systems on chip that were not designed for space radiation. Ionizing particles can trigger single even…
Performance and radiation damage mitigation strategy for silicon photomultipliers on LEO space missions
L. Burmistrov, S. Davarpanah, M. Heller +13
Space missions require lightweight, low-power consuming, radiation-tolerant components. Silicon photomultipliers are increasingly used for detecting near-UV, optical, and infrared…
Fast silicon detectors as proton therapy beam monitors
A. Bellora, L. Grzanka, R. McNulty +7
Low Gain Avalanche Detectors (LGADs) are fast silicon sensors with potential for high-resolution proton beam monitoring. In this work, we investigated their response in a 60 MeV pr…
Design and Performance of a Universal SiPM Readout System for X- and Gamma-Ray Missions
Merlin Kole, Nicolas De Angelis, Nicolas Produit +15
The advent of both multi-messenger and time-domain astrophysics over the last decade has seen a large interest in the development of small-scale, cheap, and robust gamma-ray detect…
