| 内容記述 | The Radiation Assessment Detector, RAD, is one of the ten instruments that make up the science payload of the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover. RAD is an energetic particle detector, capable of measuring the charged and neutral particles that make significant contributions to the radiation dose that will be received by future human explorers when they visit Mars. Prior to the launch of MSL in November 2011, RAD and its nearidentical twin flight spare unit were calibrated using laboratory sources, charged particle beams, and neutron fields. The initial calibration parameters obtained in these tests were used for real-time data analysis by the instrument’s onboard software. These parameters have subsequently been refined using data obtained during the cruise to Mars and during Curiosity’s mission on the surface of Mars. The most critical use of alibration is in the dosimetry analysis performed onboard. Calibration is also used in onboard analysis to determine which events should be stored for telemetry to Earth. Accelerator data obtained with the flight spare unit after Curiosity was launched provide detailed information about the response of the organic and inorganic scintillators to ion beams over a wide range of charge and energy. Here we report on the methods used to determine calibration parameters, the results obtained, as well as providing an overview of the modifications to the instrument’s software and configuration that have been made over the course of the mission. |
