Scientific paper

The multiplication effect responsible for the excess of secondary charged particles detected inside spacecraft passing under the earth's radiation belts is estimated employing data obtained by gas-proportional counters installed inside and outside of the Cosmos 142 satellite and several sounding rockets. An analytical expression is obtained for the particle excess detected inside a spacecraft, and the Cosmos-142 data is used to get a theoretical estimate of the excess. The result is found to be in good agreement with the experimental data.
