RadProtection: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:39, 18 September 2008

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 (electrostatic, plasma, bounded magnetic field, unbounded field, other)
- 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
