A forum for radiation test experience, analysis questions, and technical discussion.
Test experience often provides context that published reports cannot: dosimetry issues, lot-to-lot variation, parts review questions, or differences between proton and heavy-ion results. Share data, ask questions, and discuss interpretations, including concerns about the tools on this site.
Heavy-ion and proton test methods, Weibull fitting, cross-section measurement, rate prediction, and test planning discussions.
Total ionizing dose effects, enhanced low dose rate sensitivity (ELDRS), test standards, and dose-to-failure analysis.
NIEL calculations, displacement damage dose, proton and neutron effects on optoelectronics, solar cells, and detectors.
Part selection guidance, RHA methodology, mission-level risk assessment, COTS qualification, and standards compliance.

Protect controlled information. No export controlled or proprietary data. Methods and public results only; if you are not sure, do not post it.
Stay on topic. Radiation effects and hardness assurance. Use the category that fits.
No selling. Naming a product in a technical answer is fine. A pitch is not.
