What are we doing?

 

 

Space radiation investigation group of Solar-terrestrial influences laboratory (STIL) is working now on the:

- Analysis of the obtained space radiation data from “MIR” and ISS space stations and from long-term commercial aircraft flights;

- Development, calibrations, testing and operations of a new generation space and airborne 256 channels spectrometry systems of Liulin-4 type.
