Real time Radiation Monitoring Device (RRMD) |
RRMD can conduct real-time measurement of the time and direction
of incidence of high-energy radiation particles striking into a pressurized module,
as well as real-time identification of the kinds of these particles. It can also
transmit these data to the ground.@
RRMD consists of Detector Unit, Sample
Holder, Control Unit and Data Recorder. The Detector Unit is divided into two
types, viz., Type II which is primarily used to measure heavy particles from carbon
to iron, and Type III which is primarily used to measure light particles from
proton to carbon. The Sample Holder, which is used to store such biological specimens
as colitis germs, is set in the Detector Unit. The Control Unit possesses such
functions as measurement signal processing and measurement control. The Data Recorder
is used to record data in the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) zone where a larger
amount of measurement data can be obtained than in any other zones.
