Linear energy losses (LEL) were measured on the Cosmos-782 satellite using two spectrometers, one of which was placed inside, and the other on the external surface of the satellite. A telescope consisting of a silicon semiconductor detector was used as the cosmic-ray sensor. The measured pulse amplitude in the silicon detector is proportional to the LEL of the charged particle. Differential and integral spectra of the LEL charged particles are derived. Nuclear emulsions were used to measure the LEL spectra, and the plot of the LEL spectra in the approximate 100 to 1000 keV/micron range was obtained by dielectric tracking detectors. Analysis of the results shows that the shape of the integral spectrum obtained using the counter telescope inside the satellite is closer to the shape of the spectrum from Skylab, although absolute values of particle flux density on Cosmos-782 satellite are lower.
