Abstract:

  • The galactic cosmic radiation (GCR) shielding of the Earth's atmosphere is derived.
  • Solving an inverse problem allows measured data to yield this shielding function.
  • This thick GCR radiation shielding function can refine theoretical models.
  • This thick GCR radiation shielding function can be applied to other materials.
  • The GCR shielding supplied by regolith or the Venusian atmosphere is estimated.
