Abstract:
Protons and helium nuclei are the major components of the primary cosmic radiation at the top of the terrestrial atmosphere. Because the cosmic ray studies are important for the radiation protection domain, the contributions to the radiation field of the protons and of the helium nuclei at low kinetic energies are presented in this study. Comparison of the resulting doses with the valid data from the literature showed the real connection between the particle flux and the radiation dose value.
