Beschreibung:
The radiation effects on typical science instruments according to the Jupiter trapped radiation design restraint model are described, and specific aspects of the model where an improved understanding would be beneficial are suggested. The spacecraft design used is the TOPS 12L configuration. Ionization and displacement damage are considered, and damage criteria are placed on the most sensitive components. Possible protective measures are mentioned: selecting components as radiation resistant as possible, using a difference in desired and undesired signal shapes for electronic shielding, orienting and locating the component on the spacecraft for better shielding, and adding passive shields to protect specific components. Available options are listed in decreasing order of attractiveness: attempt to lower the design restraints without compromising the success of the missions, trade off experiment objectives for increased reliability, alter the trajectory, and remove sensitive instruments from the payload.
