Dammasch, Ingolf E.; Berghmans, David; Dominique, Marie +6 more

Aims: To better understand the radiation environment in low Earth orbit (LEO), the analysis of in-situ observations of a variety of particles, at different atmospheric heights, and in a wide range of energies, is needed.
Methods: We present an analysis of energetic particles, indirectly detected by the large yield radiometer (LYRA) instr…
