Radiation Protection for Humans in Transit
If we want to transport humans we need to reduce the radiation exposure expected on the baseline slow (200kph)ascent.
- Start with Anders Jorgensen’s work and evaluate extent of issue
- Outline potential solutions
- Speed
- Active shielding
- Passive shielding
- Work out a scenario using solutions to allow humans to transit on elevator
- Model the complete radiation exposure in a materials/radiation code or initially in a spreadsheet
