Scientific paper

The dosimetric equipment istalled on board the Mir space station is briefly described, and results of dosimetric measurements over the period 1986-1995 are summarized along with earlier measurements (1964-1980) by other spacecraft. The doses that are mainly due to the intergalactic cosmic rays and sufficiently stable high-energy protons and electrons of the Earth radiation belts are characterized by small monthly variations and are closely correlated with the 11-year solar activity cycle. The doses that are mainly due to the penetrating radiation of the Earth radiation belts exhibit distinct seasonal variations.
