    • Directionality of the Martian Surface Radiation and Derivation of the Upward Albedo Radiation 

      Guo, JingnanORCIDiD; Khaksarighiri, SalmanORCIDiD; Wimmer‐Schweingruber, Robert F.ORCIDiD; Hassler, Donald M.ORCIDiD; Ehresmann, BentORCIDiD; Zeitlin, Cary; Löffler, SvenORCIDiD; Matthiä, DanielORCIDiD; Berger, ThomasORCIDiD; Reitz, GüntherORCIDiD; Calef, FredORCIDiD (Geophysical Research Letters, 2021-07-31)
      Since 2012 August, the Radiation Assessment Detector (RAD) on the Curiosity rover has been characterizing the Martian surface radiation field which is essential in preparation for future crewed Mars missions. RAD observed ...

    • Subsurface Radiation Environment of Mars and Its Implication for Shielding Protection of Future Habitats 

      Röstel, Lennart; Guo, JingnanORCIDiD; Banjac, SašaORCIDiD; Wimmer-Schweingruber, Robert F.ORCIDiD; Heber, BerndORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2020)
      In order to quantify the optimal radiation shielding depth on Mars in preparation for future human habitats on the red planet, it is important to understand the Martian radiation environment and its dependence on the ...
