摘要
Galactic Cosmic Rays and Solar Cosmic Rays are responsible for a significant absorbed dose by the astronauts that increases their risk and the probability of health problems. The mitigation of this dose is crucial for planning future missions, beginning from those to Mars. Different strategies have been designed to protect the crew during the mission. In this work it is considered the shielding of cosmic rays using a superconductor magnet enough compact for the launch. A Monte Carlo study is carried out. The simulations are made by modelling the structures with Monte Carlo FLUKA code, dividing cosmic rays into 5 ionic groups.
