  3. Radiation Effects on Spacecraft • At industry limited data is collected and evaluated on S/C behavior in orbit. • Information on in orbit performance is mainly at space operation centres (e. g. ESOC) or at Institutes (PI). • Lessons learned is a product assurance task (alerts, warning notes issuing dept. ) Page 2 2nd European Space Weather Week - Presentation_Keil.ppt - 17 Oct 2005

  4. Radiation Effects on Spacecraft • Documented Data on Observed Effects due to Space Environment • excellent overview but fairly old status from 1996: NASA-RP-1390, “Spacecraft System Failures and Anomalies Attributed to the Natural Space Environment” or: http://www.sat-index.com (satellite news digest) Page 3 2nd European Space Weather Week - Presentation_Keil.ppt - 17 Oct 2005

  5. Radiation Effects on Spacecraft • SELECTED CASES • Predicted Effects • Manifested Effects: • Solar cell degradation (e. g. CLUSTER, XMM) • Temporary Effects • Startracker behaviour (e.g. ROSETTA) • Bit flips and EDAC behaviour (e.g. mass memory, CLUSTER SSR) • Measured data on SREM (e.g. ROSETTA) Page 4 2nd European Space Weather Week - Presentation_Keil.ppt - 17 Oct 2005

  6. Radiation Effects on Spacecraft • Predicted Effects: ECSS-E-10-04A, ECSS-E-10-12A draft, Source Term and Effects: Tools: e.g. SPENVIS, CREME96 Cosmic ray LET spectra for typical missions Page 5 2nd European Space Weather Week - Presentation_Keil.ppt - 17 Oct 2005

  7. Radiation Effects on Spacecraft • Origin of Effect: SPE: 14/15 July 2000, the Proton flux has not significantly exceeded the 1989 design flare, for >10 MeV its 24000 pfu is less than 40000 pfu in maximum (1989 flare), Particle Flux Units (pfu)=1p+ cm-2 sr-1 s-1 Page 6 2nd European Space Weather Week - Presentation_Keil.ppt - 17 Oct 2005

  12. Radiation Effects on Spacecraft Temporary Effects - ROSETTA • The solar flare on 8/9 Sept. 05, hit the spacecraft at the beginning of the weekly non-coverage period. When the signal was acquired for the weekly contact on 15 Sept. the spacecraft was found with the active Star Tracker crashed in INIT mode, and the second Star Tracker (not used for attitude control) in Standby mode. • AOCS had determined the attitude over a period of 6 days using gyroscopes only, and accumulated therefore a drift of about 0.7 degrees, of which 0.3 degrees offset in the High Gain Antenna pointing direction, small enough to allow the RF signal to be received on ground. The recovery activities took most of the ground station pass on 15 Sept. At the end both Star Trackers were back in tracking mode and the nominal attitude reacquired.
