Proton High AMS02 small

The current web calculator allows one to obtain the residual spectral fluence or residual energy for protons and ions traversing a shielding material by exploiting the "SRIM Module.exe" (with an upper energy limit of 5 GeV/amu) included in SRIM 2013 code (SRIM Tutorials) - whose maximum available energy is 10 GeV/amu -, i.e., the used electronic stopping power tables are those provided by "SRIM Module.exe" code with a low energy limit of 1 eV.

EXAMPLE:
Copy and paste the data here to reproduce the following example.
Protons spectral fluence during ESA Juice mission moderated by 50 mils of Al (0.3429 [g cm-2]):

Spectral fluence data are calculated with JOREM Model implemented in SPENVIS
assuming a 4 sr solid angle exposure.

NOTE:
  • The lower energy limit is 1 eV
  • The higher energy limit is 5 GeV/nucleon
  • The default traversed path is that for 50 mils of Al
  • The lower limit of traversed path is equivalent to about 5 μm of Si (1.16x10-3 [g cm-2]), e.g., 0.96 cm in Dry Air at sea level with density equal to 1.20484x10-3 g/cm3 (as implemented in SRIM from ICRU-37 table 5.5).
  • Residual energies were obtained disregarding multiple scattering effect, i.e., directions of flight of emerging particles were unchaged with respect to those of impinging directions.
  • Target selection for the results obtained in the EXAMPLE section
    Selection for Protons in Silicon:

    Selection for Protons in GaAs:

    Selection for Protons in Water Liquid:

  • In SRIM, gas targets are dealt differently from those solid. User can select the target as a gas only for following elemental targets: H, He, N, O, F, Ne, Cl, Ar, Kr, Xe, Rn.
