Solid State Microdosimetry With Heavy Ions for Space Applications
Andrew J. Wroe,Anatoly B. Rosenfeld,Mark I. Reinhard,V. L. Pisacane,J. F. Ziegler,M.E. Nelson,F. A. Cucinotta,Marco Zaider,J. F. Dicello +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the performance of SOI microdosimeters in heavy ion radiation fields was evaluated using a Lucite phantom along the central axis of the beam, and the response of which was compared with existing proportional counter data to assess the applicability of the microdosimeter to future deployments in space missions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light-hadron induced SER and scaling relations for 16- and 64-Mb DRAMS
G.J. Hofman,R.J. Peterson,C.J. Gelderloos,R.A. Ristinen,M.E. Nelson,Alan K. Thompson,J. F. Ziegler,H. Mullfeld +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the soft error rates of 16 and 64 Mb dynamic memory chips induced by three types of elementary particles, neutrons, protons, and pions, with emphasis on results obtained with pion beams, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pion-induced soft upsets in 16 mbit DRAM chips
TL;DR: In this paper, the soft upset cross section due to energetic charged pions was measured in various 16 Mbit memory chips, as a function of incident pion energy and for chips with different cell technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI
