Simulations of MATROSHKA experiments outside the ISS using PHITS

Puchalska, M.*; Sihver, L.*; Sato, Tatsuhiko ; Berger, T.*; Reitz, G.*

We will present simulations using the three-dimensional Monte Carlo Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System (PHITS) of long term dose measurements performed with the ESA supported experiment MATROSHKA (MTR), which is an anthropomorphic phantom containing over 6000 radiation detectors, mimicking a human head and torso. The results confirm previous calculations and measurements which indicate that PHITS is a suitable tool for estimations of dose received from cosmic radiation and when performing shielding design studies of spacecraft.
