Abstract:

A measurement program in which a proton beam irradiates sensitive electro-optical sensors used in spacecraft systems has been prepared. The progress reported during this period includes device procurement, test setup, laboratory testing and accelerator test preparation. A second set of tests will be scheduled for July at the Harvard Cyclotron. Author
