Scientific paper

A pair of dosimeters aboard satellites in a Monniya orbit have made measurements of the radiation dose under 0.69 gm/cm2 of aluminum. The measured dose was substantially less than that predicted by the NASA AE-8 and AP-8 models. The cause of the difference cannot be determined with certainty. One possibility is that AP-8 is in agreement with the observations and that AE-8 leads to a substantial overestimate of the dose due to electrons.
